Miscellaneous

I replied to a classified job advertisement in the Jacksonville Times-Union for a driver/courier job. It offered flexible scheduling and a salary of $2300/month. The only contact information was a telephone number of 1-800-676-9085. I contacted this number and got a recording that stated 'Thank you for calling THE SERVICES. If you are calling regarding the driving position please write down the following information.

"You will need reliable transportation and the position pays $2300 per month. A deposit of $295 is required and we are looking for only a select few individuals, so serious inquiries only. New drivers are allowed one referral. Please leave your name and phone number for more information."

I left my information and received a call back from a gentleman calling himself
Brian Turner (as he calls himself THIS time) of "Tolsin Services" claims to have been in business for over 18 years, doing business out of Houston, via the Phillipines.

The job was emptying privately owned pay phones on a 50 phone route and depositing the coin boxes at a central bank. I was asked to provide 3 local zip codes where I would like for my route to be located within. I was instructed to send a $295 deposit for the coin boxes and equipment. I could also go on a waiting list and deposit nothing, but I would not be guaranteed a job or a preferred route.

He had all kinds of details such as this being a new 3 year contract, pay period dates, direct deposit information, information about taking off, description on how the boxes and services worked, referring family members for more income, etc. I called the 800-676-9085 number several times and the recording changed a few times with less and less information each time.

I was instructed that the only way to send money was via Western Union. I was given a bunch of contact information to send $295 that was to be refunded to a person named MERLINDA BALBUTIN, Personnel Director in Davao City, PHILLIPINES 8000. I was given an ID number of M6, and instructed that my equipment would arrive one week after my money arived. I called later in the week and the recording now said that no new applicants were being accepted and again stated the date of package arrival.

I decided NOT to pay the deposit money. But I did do some research and found other reports in here so I decided to share so someone else isn't ripped off!

The 713-840-9987 Phone number rings to a FAX number when I called it back yesterday.
