Sounds like a scam to me. anytime you are required to send money sounds "fishy".

Definitely sounds like a scam. What is the IP address? The FBI also is interested in internet scams.

The first thing that comes to mind is a huge red flag. Beware. Do not respond.

Of course it is a scam. That deal is as phony as a three dollar bill. We have seen lots of things like this and wonder who on earth would ever fall for something like that. As others have said she will be left poorer then she is now.

I think this is a scam, check with the attorney general. My daughter sells Scentsy, its a wonderful product my neighbor sells Mary Kay. I would stick with a known company.

sounds like a money laundering scam and definitely not from the USA.

To me, the scam was evident when the words "in your good country United States of America' showed up in the sentence. Many scams have this wording. A lot of misspellings, capital letters out of place, etc. etc. etc. Appears the wording is legalese, but too much at best. For one thing, wouldn't there be contacts with a company before signing anything that has a dollar amount in it?
There is no way I would ever consider this legitimate. Ever.

Take it to your local bank or police department and you'll find out it IS a scam and don't call them if they give you a number or you will be paying overseas long distance costs which are exhorbitant!

Sounds like a money laundering scheme to me!

This is a major scam. Follow the advice on the above posts. Good luck on finding your "at home" job.

Has scam written all over it, probably another out of Nigeria.

Sounds like a foreign scam. If you can make $3000 - $4000 a month they wouldn't have to advertise. They'd be over run with applications.

Yes, It's a scam! Stay away from it! It will involve Postal Money orders most probably that are counterfeit. I dealt with these on several occasions during my career with the Post Office. Their stories were very similar to the one above.

That SCREAMS scam............they could have the funds automatically put in the bank -- no need to pay someone. Probably paying for drugs or something illegal....

OMG! That doesn't even sound close to being legit! Our local TV station always has a consumer protection portion and says to be very, very careful of work at home schemes. Please investigate!! If it seems to good to be true - it generally is!

Sentence construction and grammar are very, very good. But not good enough. Whoever constructed this did a good jub, but English is not their first language. For example "ATTESTATION" is not a term routinely found in business in America these days. It is correct as far as grammar is concerned, but not common usage. This is very likely a scam being run from outside the country. These days many are run from Eastern European countries. I wish it were not so but there just aren't any shortcuts to earning a living these days. Especially not like this. So sorry. Good luck to you daughter.

Scam, convince her not to do it.

This is just another money laundering scheme. There are so many out there and, yes, it is against the law and all of the frisk is on you. I help prove these out in our area, MD.working with the police and Chamber of Commece. I pose as an interested party to get the connections set and then they take over. They spring as fast as they can be taken down.

The only people I know of you sign an ATTESTATION for is the IRS. It's so if you have a tax return started but aren't there to physically sign the return when the customer comes back to finish it, somebody else can sign it for you and file it with your ATTESTATION.

That whole thing is a total scam though.

SCAM!!! There is a lawsuit here in Kentucky where an attorney did this for a company and the checks bounced - he had already transferred the funds so his bank account was overdrawn. He's actually trying to say it was the bank's fault for not stopping him. Nothing good can come from a "system" like this except whoever is on the end accepting funds from your daughter. Think about it - why can't they receive their own funds directly? Why do they need someone to deposit them and send them? I purchase from China, etc. on ebay all the time and they never have any trouble taking my money. If it's too good to be true......

Scam-keep some money and forward the rest-then the check bounces.I have a friend who fell for one like this.

Thanks, all, I thought it was scammy. The email did have the company name, and do there is a nice website, but websites are easy to come by. We will look elsewhere.

Yes, it is.

Remember there are no free lunches. If it sounds to good to be true, than mostly it is not true. My first thought would be scam. Be very careful of so called work-at-home ads on line or in the newspaper.

SCAM! They are setting your daughter up to do their dirty work. Run!

oh, boy--this is, indeed, a scam. i'm adding my vote to the others. first, the "english" in this is stilted and incorrect in many spots. if it was a reputable business, there would be someone with some linguistic skill involved in this. second, it involves the exchange of money. it will require some kind of banking situation, and once they have you create an account (using your/your daughter's name), they will use that account to move funds. by having your name on it, you are liable for any shortages, bad checks, etc. you are not immune from prosecution, because it's your name and social security number on the account--not the "business" you are "collecting" for. if the "company" seems to be legit, it might be something as simple as money laundering--something the owner of the account (you/her) would be liable for. please, please, please don't allow your daughter to get involved. i, too, have a daughter who really wants to work from home--that wish drives some of the biggest scams in the country, because moms want to be with their kids. it is extremely difficult to find legit "work at home" situations. even the "make these for us and well buy them back from you" schemes are just that--schemes. they don't have to pay the worker unless the product meets their standards--and they can make them nigh unto impossible to meet, while still demanding the return of their supplies, which are by them--you guessed--goods, ready for them to sell.

good luck to you, and to your daughter--it is hard to find the right thing--just be sure to check with the state you live in--the attorney general's office is the best place to start. and the better business bureau is not 100% reliable, either--they only lodge complaints, and have no clout to use against anybody that is registered with them. all that takes is a registration fee. any business can do that. there are no "standards" that have to be met, and there is no cross checking from business owner to business owner. they can switch names in a heartbeat. again--good luck. the world is full of people ready to grab any $$$ they can.

In a word.YES The only one making money is the company you have to send money to.
