I answered an ad for Data Entry on craiglist and was told the it was for Lowe's Company and was contacted by a Kayla Wright. After being contacted she wanted me to urgently download Yahoo! Messenger and message her. After receiving an email on how legit the company was, I was told I was to do training through emails, which i would get paid $20/hr for... My 4th day into training i received a cashiers check from J Distributors for $2,900. I was told to deduct $200.00 for my payment for training for the week and then transfer the money to a "Local Vendor" via western union so they could then order my supplies (laptop, scanner, printer, etc.) for my work at home data entry job. After receiving the check I had 2 days left of my training and it seemed like it didnt matter, all Kayla cared about was the money. After depositing it into my bank account I had 2 days before the check was going to clear. After i told "kayla" the check wasnt going to clear for two days she through a fit. That tipped me off... After that, once it cleared, I was told to transfer the money via WESTERN UNION. She gave me an address and a name for Pawling NY. After transferring the money i received an email 1 hr later from Kayla stating that the money was not made available to the receiver and she ordered me to get a refund and resend the money to a different name and address. After receving the email that the money was availble for the person now, I was told kayla would keep me updated on the arrival of my "supplies". The next day my bank called me and told me that the check was fradulant. A fake check, and that as of today my bank account was NEGATIVE $2,900. After filing a police report and putting a hold on my bank account, I went home and then later that day received ANOTHER check from J. Distributors for $3,900. I was not told this check was going to come. J DISTIBUTORS IS A SCAM! Be extremely cautious and if anything liek this is happening to you make sure you save ALL YOUR EMAILS and take PICTURES of all the bank statements and checks you recieve. Do not fall for this!!!
