Angel Investment Network review: Craigslist Job Posting SCAM 15

I have a care.com account and tonight a "Mr. Peter" sent me a TEXT. I didn't realize my phone number was accessible and I am changing that setting right now. Attaching a pic of the text.
Two days ago, I got an email through my rover.com account from "Jason Halloway" - said him and his wife Kimberly were transferring to my area from VA. Offered me $300 a week plus expenses to pet sit and buy things for his new apartment. Asked for my info. I contacted rover support and they said they had just deleted his account because of fraud. So beware of that name too.

SORRY, I FORGOT TO INSERT HIS EMAIL.

Hello

Thanks for Your response

I need PA to help me monitor and keep up to date with all my activities. I have had a previous PA who has been very commendable in her activities and who has been part of my life for the past 6 months, she has since returned to her country. I sincerely hope I will be able to find someone again who will be as efficient as she has been.

I'm Terry Mason, 54 yrs of age, originally from Los Angeles, California; I spent a whole lot of my life in Seattle. I'm a lawyer by profession and I have been pretty successful in a handful of ventures I get involved in; from the Angel Investment Network in Canada and United State to various welfare and community service programs, I most very often get my hands occupied, so it is imperative for me to have a worthy assistant who can monitor and keep me up to date with my activities.

As my assistant, your activities amongst other things will include.

*Running personal errands, supervisions and monitoring.
*Scheduling programs, flights and keeping me up to date with them.
*Acting as an alternative telephone correspondence when I'm away.
*Making regular contacts and drop-offs on my behalf.
*Handling and monitoring some of my financial activities.

Basic wage is $500 a week

This position is home-based and flexible, working with me is basically about instructions and following them, my only fear is that I may come at you imprompt you sometimes, so I need someone who can be able to meet up with my irregular timings. There is also a very sensitive issue on trust and accountability which I believe will resolve itself as time goes on. This is only an introductory e-mail, as time goes on we should be able to arrange a proper meeting to get things started officially.

I'm currently in Australia now for a summit, however, I do have a number of things you could help me with this week if you will be available for me. This can act as a stable foundation to our working relationship.

If you will be available for this job position confirmation your interest by responding to this email and sending me the below details because I need you to start work immediately.

I TO, RECEIVED THIS SCAM EMAIL. I THOUGHT IT LOOKED SUSPICIOUS SOI DID CHECK ON ONE OF HIS COMPANIES NAMES CALLED ANGEL INVESTMENTS. IT SOUNDED GOOD TO ME SO I DID REPLY AND ASKED HIM A FEW QUESTIONS ABOUT HIS TYPE OF WORK, ETC AND AGAIN I RECEIVED THE EXACT SAME EMAIL THAT ALL OF YOU ARE RECEIVING. THIS IS A SCAM AND I SUGGEST YOU REPORT THIS TO WHATEVER NECESSARY ORGANIZATION YOU MAY THINK OF. DO NOT OFFER TO TAKE THIS JOB!

SCAM! But I actually gave them my home address? Does anyone have stories of what happens next? Should I contact the police? Here was my email:

Aug 14 2010- I too have rec the same email after I submitted my resume for admin assistant position on Craigslist. This time he presented himself as Peter Martins*

Following email...

Thanks for your interests in the PA position, I will deeply appreciate all genuine efforts to help me monitor and keep up to date with all my activities.I have had a previous PA who has been very commendable in her activities and who has been part of my life for the past 6 months,
she has since returned to her country. I sincerely hope I will be able to find someone again who will be as efficient as she has been.But this offer is open to both male and female that resident in the states and they can come from states in the united states

I'm Peter Martins, 50 years old, originally from Grove City in Ohio state, I have spent my whole life here in United State. I'm into buying and selling of local fabric and i own and manage my business, by profession and I have been pretty successful in a handful of ventures I get involved in, from the Angel Investment Network in Canada and United State to various welfare and
community service programs, I'm most very often get my hands occupied, so it is imperative for me to have a worthy assistant who can monitor and keep me up to date with my activities.

As my assistant, your activities amongst other things will include;

*Running personal errands, supervisions and monitoring.
*Scheduling programmed, flights and keeping me up to date with them.
*Acting as an alternative telephone correspondence when I'm away.

*Handling and monitoring some of my financial activities.

I'm currently in the United kingdom now for a Business Contract and would be back to the state in about a month, however, I do have a number of things you could help me with next week if you will be available for me. This can act as a stable foundation to our working relationship.

Please note that this position is not office based for now
because of my frequent travels and tight schedules, it's a part-time, work from home basis and the flexibilty means that there will be busier weeks than others, so it's a little difficult judging the exact number of
hours you'll be doing per week.If you can manage your time properly, this job may even give you some extra while you do something else on the side..

As I have said, I'd want us to get a head start with things as soon as possible. I do have a pile up of work and a number of unattended chores which you can immediately assist me with, I hope we can meet up with the workload eventually.Permit me to use the coming week to test your efficiency and diligence towards all this, also to work out your time schedule and fit it to mine. I really need to find the perfect person for this job, I'm confident you can take up the challenge and on the long run we should have a relatively sound working relationship between us.

I'd want us to
meet up on Yahoo chat as soon as possible so we can discuss this extensively, more so it's easier for me to convey information once I'm online. My yahoo ID address petermart1234@yahoo.com

I received the same sketchy email! People beware... He has several different emails listed, and is stating one of his clients would pay me instead of him directly. There were several other red flags but I'm not going to list them and aid these Nigerian ### or other scam artists in improving their scam.
I hope none of u fall for it.
