Scam Description
I want to confirm that I’m available by phone from 10.00 am EST till 06.00 pm EST Monday-Friday. I’m in my office some Saturdays (I’ll let you know). I’m available by email 24/7 per week and also on Holidays and weekends.
During the 2 weeks period we are going to start from simple PO (purchase order) from our company’s individual clients. You’ll purchase the required goods, package them and mail them out. Your responsibilities will be : find the items under the best price/discount; pick them up from the vendor/supplier and ship out via shipping carrier. As soon as the items are found, you should drive and purchase them by using Company’s money. You receive them prior to the purchase.
Our company provides the corporate credit card to work with but it will be in your hands in 15 days from your start because you have to complete the probationary period and fulfill 8 orders as a minimum. Within these 15 days you receive the money from the company’s bank account to your personal credit card.
You will be given the company’s money upfront to the purchase. You do not buy the merchandise from your own money. To get this process started, you do NOT give use your card details, because you will be given our bank account # + routing # to draw the money from. Because of the security reason, to avoid any kind of unauthorized transactions, the company did a credit check. The company gives you money in advance and made a soft screening before you get our money to start the job.
Base on your Credit Report, You have already charged credit card(s) and your balance is like a room to get our money deposited.
CITICARDS Credit limit of $15,000 Balance $14,748
BANK OF AMERICA Credit limit of $30,000 Balance $20,443
I give you a company’s bank account and you clear $14,748 + /or $20,443 to get $35,191 company’s money to shop around. You can keep $750 from that amount as your Salary advance and use them for your personal needs immediately. The rest amount you will use for PO purchases.
You will be buying goods quickly, at the same day, and we do a next charges pay after the purchase. There is no interest rate and you do not spend your own money.
How it works:
1) I give you the company’s bank account number by email
2) you use the account to pull the money from that account and deposit to your credit card (by phone or online)
3) we wait 12-24 hours till the credit card company confirm the available credit on your card
4) you start buying the goods from posted company’s amount
5) you ship the products out
6) receive the next transaction
You can start with one or few cards at the same time.
