Just like everyone else i responded to a "Personal Assistant" add on Craigslist and received the same email everyone else on here has. Except the name was different. He went by James Kelvin. I told my step dad about it and he said sounds like a scam. So I started to research it and sure enough I came across all these complaints and people getting the same thing I got. I don't think I've gotten a check yet but if I do I sure as hell won't be depositing it into my account. The photo I attached is of the last email he sent me.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I got the same scam but I checked it out before I responded he seems to have moved onto careerbuilder. I repoted the listing and I filed a complaint with the internet crime complaint center you can fill out the online complaint at : http://www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx
I received a check today and he says to cash it, take out $600 for my week's pay and then western Union the remainder to
