[Offroad]

Inquired about a personal driver job and a few days later got this back.....dunno seems weird might be just me.

He did leave his name at the end of the email so I dunno .....whats the Beyond panel think ?

Hello

I need a personal driver for my mom who will be relocating in about 3 weeks time. I believe you will be a good fit for this position so long you prove yourself to be reliable, loyal and responsible.

I'm a very busy person but I will be making arrangements for the car you will be driving her in. Its a 2012 Mercedes Benz CLS550. If you have your car you could use it as well, but I'll prefer the Mercedes. I am offering you $40/hr. You will be needed within the hours of 9am-3pm on Monday,Tuesday and Thursday and Fridays. It will be greatly appreciated if you accept this offer. I will look forward to having a better service from you. Kindly get back with the following information your Full Name, Residential Address, post-code including your email address.

I would be waiting for your reply.

Just try copying and pasting some of that e-mail into Google. The same e-mail pops up.

When I read his name, I had to re-read the post in a british accent.

Wow $40/he just to drive someone around in a nice new Benz? Oh okay... yeah that seems legit

[Darell_n]

Maybe changing said Mom's diapers and retrieving lost food particles from her folds, is part of the deal? Would be a hard earned $40/hr.

The more interesting part is figuring out how it is a scam instead of just saying it is and leaving it at that.

Joyride :rofl: :rofl:

The scam is a classic bad check scam. They send u a fake certified check for the services. You deposit in bank. They change their mind, ask u to wire them the money back or they'll call cops. Stupid people wire them money. A month later, fake check bounces. Niger - 1, Stupid People - 0.
