Scam Description
The scammed individual has become unwittingly involved in a parcel mule scam where their address serves as a conduit for fraudulent transactions. In this scheme, they received and forwarded packages under the false pretense of legitimate transactions. These packages, unbeknownst to them, are believed to have been purchased using stolen financial information. They have a team of employees where they reach out and speedily conduct interviews saying there’s a higher than understandable pay for this role. And they’ll begin shipping items for you to take a picture of, resend then await the next package.
