On August 12 I applied for a Customer Service / Administrative Assistant position on Yahoo Hot Jobs. I was contacted by Rob Teed - Account Coordinator for Recruitment Department of Met International on August 15 with the job description and asking for my contact information if I was still interested. I promptly responded with my contact information. On August 19 I received an email with Test Duty and Instructions. I was to follow the following instructions: proceed to the nearest 7-Eleven store around and check for the Vcom machine to have the check cashed or have it at cashed at the bank, deduct 10% of the money as your commission. After it was cashed I was to send the rest of the funds via western union money transfer or Money Gram transfer to the Company's Regional Accountant: Sherita Caraway 2150 South Peoria St Aurora, Colorado 80014. After I sent the funds they require you to email the Money Transfer Control Number (MTCN) and the senders information. I was told that after I had completed the Transaction I was then to record each payment I recieved because they would require it from me after each week for accessing and also for Tax purpose. The very first check I received was for $1,100.00 I recieved it that same day (August 19th). I cashed the check at my bank on August 21st. I then send them the money via Money Gram on August 22nd. I really thought everything was all good. On August 27th, I recieved a second check and I was to do the same process but this time I was to send the funds to a different person: Name: Michelle Fowler 112 Strand, London WC2R 0AG United Kingdom (via western union). I went to the bank to cash it but it seemed the amount had been changed therefore my bank refused to cash it. I am really greatful to God for that. The truth is I would be worst off if they had cashed the check. I was advised by Rob Teed to keep the check in my possession until the straightened out things. Then today (September 2) I noticed my bank had deducted $1,100.00 from my bank account due to a return item. I have emailed the company to figure out what the problem is but no response. The phone number I had for them is off and the recording machine is on. I really don't know what to do. I read a report of a person who was scammed by this company. I don't have the money to pay my bank and my check get direct deposited into my account. I am truly lost. Please help me!
