I was contacted by Soft Haus Appliance through a "representative" of their company through the careerbuilders.com website. The "job" description is processing checks and wire transferring funds to Austria.in return for this service, your "payment" is 10% of the checks you cash.
Long story short, you cash the check using your personal account, wire transfer the funds to the "company" and a week later the check gets returned as the account is unable to be located. The company has Your money, Your address, Your phone number, Your email address.
I definitely should have gone with my gut instinct on this one. When it seems too good to be true, it most likely is!
I have filed a report with the Internet Fraud Complaint Center (IFCC), my local police department, my bank, careerbuilders.com and here. I want someone affiliated with this scam to be caught!
