I was contacted on careerbuilder.com from Alex Phillips, who claimed to be with Jimmie Caldwell Charities. The website, www.jcaldwellhome.org, looks legit. And the 'company' appears to provide a great service to communities world wide.
The position was for a donations processor, one who accepts checks on behalf of the company and distributes the funds to parties that participate in the program. Now, this appeared to sound a bit strange at first, but I was ASSURED by Alex that this was not a scam. I even signed a contract with them!
So, I got my first check and deposited it into the bank. Not surprisingly, the check (I find out 1 week later) is a FRAUD! I was completely embarrased at my credit union when the closed my account on the spot and witheld my debit card.
This company needs to be stopped! Along with all those other online scammers: exportlativa, jimmie caldwell, and many more! I lost my account opening fees and all that time and effort. I feel like such an idiot.
