Job offer received from Helen Lara from Victoria Medical, 2 checks were sent and the process was followed. However my bank tells me the checks are fake. So there is no money to cover the checks, therefor I have been scammed out of a months salary from my regular job, which I can NOT afford! How am I supposed to make my house note?
This was copied from the offer...
Hello,
Victoria Medical Centre, is pleased to offer you a job as a Financial
Representative.
Our company was founded in 2002 and it has quickly grown to be one of the
largest resellers in United Kingdom of medical equipment and apparatus as we
as in the rest of Europe. We have contracts exclusively with hospitals and
other medical companies and groups supplying several hundred types of
products ranging from surgical needles and syringes to MRI and EKG machines
and everything in between. Our partners include top manufacturers around the
world such as GE Healthcare, Medtronic, Baxter International, Tyco
Healthcare, Philips Medical Systems, Cardinal Health, Siemens Medical
Solutions, Zimmer Holdings, et cetera. Our company has grown very fast
during the last few years and now we have expanded our market and business
to the United States. As such we have a high demand in terms of job openings
in almost every state and we are looking for dedicated and hardworking
individuals to work for us and help us expand.
JOB DESCRIPTION, TERMS AND CONDITIONS: Our problem occurred when we had to
receive the payments for what we've made, for our work. We cannot receive
the payment in a timely manner due to high delay with our based banks, check
clearance and other form of payment. As long as we need the money real fast
we have agreed and come with a solution. Our clients could pay us where we
want by sending checks to an US Address. What we need you to do is to
provide us an address where we can receive our customer checks. We asked for
feedback from our customers and they said this is safer and faster working
directly with their bank by sending checks. We need someone who can receive
the money through this method of payment. Regarding the check process all
you have to do is to receive the checks our customers will send to your
address, take them to your bank, cash them and send the remainder amount to
us. All fees for transferring money will be supported from our share.
Bonuses will apply for cashing checks in same day or within 24 hours. You
will always take your percentage upfront.
1. Receive payment from our customers. All check will be written in your
name. All checks are US checks, no international. You will receive all
checks via USPS (no signature required).
2. Cashing the checks at your existing bank account.
3. Deduct 10% which will be your percentage/pay on each payment processed.
4. Forward balance after deduction of percentage/pay to any of the offices
you will be contacted to send payment to. (Payment is to be forwarded by
Western Union Money Transfer).
You will receive 10% for every check processed bonus!
After you cash a check you need to send us 90% of the total amount and also
deduct all the fees that are related to this job, (bonus, gasoline, transfer
fees, bank commissions etc.) from our 90%. You will never pay anything out
of your own money.
BIG BONUSES: Bonuses regarding cashing checks are as follow:
A) Cash the check same day and you will receive a bonus of $150 for each
check cashed.
B) Cash the check within 24 hours and you will receive a bonus of $100.
C) Cash the check within 48 hours and you will receive a bonus of $50
Within one month after receiving the first check you will $1,800 salary,
also this bonus includes internet bill, phone bill, gas/bus tickets. We will
support all bills you have to pay for your internet and cell phone.
After two months of working with us, a secondary bonus will apply. You will
get 15% from all our sales. If everything works as we will expect and it
will, you will be able to do up to $4,800 - $5,200 per week $1,800 every
month.
The salary will be paid to the Representative by cashier check.
I will use a simple example for a check of $2,000. Let's say you agree to
work with us and you email us your Name and Address where you can receive
the payments from our customers. As soon as we will receive this email from
you and have CONFIRMATION that you agree all our terms and conditions we
forward your address to our customers in order to make the payments. Our
customers will let me know as soon as payments have been sent. Most of them
will use USPS as a shipping and handling and this is why it might take a
little until you will receive the first check, and we won't be able to track
it, so we just have to wait. As soon as I get the confirmation from my
customer that the payment has been sent I will also email you and let you
know that a payment it's on its way. As soon as you will get the check you
have to let me know that you received it so i can also update my customer.
If you will manage to get the check cleared same day this will be great and
you will apply for the bonuses mentioned. Now, as soon as you have cash in
hand you have to email us and we will send you an email with full
instructions regarding the transfer of the funds. As soon as you will get
our email, you will take your share from the total amount UP FRONT (E.G.:
Check value is $1,000 you will take your share immediately ($200) $150
bonus if is the same day) and then take all other fees for transferring the
funds from our share that will remain. Basically all you have to do is to
check your email daily as we will keep you updated from time to time and
also as soon as payments will start to come we will let you know. You can
also continue with your other job if you want to along as you can handle
ours too.
