I have been searching for legidimate work from home jobs for over a year now. I have applied to several companies, however I got a email from a company named Fast Worldwide LLC to fill out a extensive application and I did. The man named Anthony contacted me and said he would like to hire me for Commodity Inspector. Can someone please tell me if this company is legit. They offer 2000.00 a month salary to process commodities for companies and ship over seas. The website is www.fastworldwidellc.com. PLEASE HELP!!! :bowdown:

I wish I could give you a happier answer, but it is a scam.

The first thing I notice on the website is this quote on the main page.
"Thanks for your assistance the past 3 yrs. Fast Worldwide has done a great job and I have recommended you to others." — Dean, Korea


A really interesting quote, since the domain was registered 2 weeks ago!

It's also registered for only a year, which is typical of a fake site--they know they will be closed down for fraud before the year is up anyway.

It took less than a minute to discover that they simply copied this real website: http://www.pmipmi.com/
Incidentally, real mail forwarding companies do exist, but they do NOT involve working from home. They have a physical location where the mail is received and processed, like a mailbox store.

Honestly, I was really surprise to read about this Company (Fast World Wide llc). They offer me a job as a Commodity inspector and I accepted it. The person contacted me was Anthony Hill introduced himself to as the Human Resources Manager at First World Wide llc.com. After I filled the application for the company, he did send me in e-mail an agreement to sign (Employment Agreement), and fax it back to him with an instruction that I need to sign it in hand. I noticed that the agreement was already signed by the Guy name, Stephen Ungant as the Vice-Executive Officer. The agreement state that the compensation of $2000.00 per month but, there is no unemployment benefits, holiday pay, health insurance, sick leave etc..
I did signed and fax backed the contract with my original signature next the Stephen Ungant Vice-Executive officer.
Anthony Hill the HR guy told me that I was hired and in a few days I will be receiving a call from my immediate supervisor which was happen to be Maria Berry. And yes, she did contact and give some instruction about the type of work I will be doing with Company. She also, mentioned that in a few days I will receive my first package to inspect, test the product if it's an electronics, take picture make a report and send back to the company for her approval and then she will upload the prepaid shipping label for the package to go out.
Everything she said did happen, I received my first package which happen be a mask and I followed the instruction and send my report back with the pictures of the items and she did upload a prepaid USPS shipping for me and I was able to send out the products. A received a total of 10 items in my home address the last one was June 02 client name was Irene Cameron the package was for a guy address in Moscow. Last Monday I called Maria to asked her if there's any more package coming to my address because I checked my Task Panel in Members area of Fast World Wide and all the task addressed to was already completed. She told me for now there's none and I should just take a day off for the day. Then, comes Tuesday still no package listed coming to me through my Access with the Members Task panel. Maria told me she will notified as soon as there's package for me. Then, yesterday Wednesday still no package listed on my Task Panel Members area so, I called here again, I'm not sure if she's got annoyed with me keep calling her every day about packages but. the only remarked I've was " Shit This Robert , Again?" and the phone she was using sound really blurred like she's talking from inside the tunnel or something? then, as soon as I hang-up the phone my access to the Task Panel members area of WWW.Fast World Wide LLC. Com been rebuke. I can no longer access the Members Task Panel Area because the User name and Password won't work. If I was Scammed, why they send me those packages, and plus why the USPS prepaid level was all legit? The thing that keeps me thinking right now is are they going to pay me my $2000.00? if not, I'm holding the copy of employment agreement signed by their Executive officer and plus I have all the copies of prepaid labels of those packages that I already send? If they don't follow this agreement why can I do to shut this people down? I mean how can I take them to proper authority to stop their operation of victimizing more people. Although, I didn't spend any amount money working with them but, I already spend time doing the work they want me to do and I'm entitle to get my paycheck for the amount they promised and mentioned in the Employment agreement. I'm waiting for June 13, and see if they really going to send me the $2000. If not What should I do to stop them from doing this type of SCAM?

Hello,

Yes it's a scam. The scammer was buying items with stollen credit cards having them shipped to you and inturn having you ship the stollen items to the scammer or accomplices. This leads the trail to you instead of the scammer when the credit cards are found to be stollen. The UPS labels were also made with a stollen UPS account.

The simple truth is its very unlikely a company is going to pay someone $2000 a month to simple inspect an item and reship it. If you buy something online and it arrives damaged you simple return it. No company is going to pay someone so much money for such a simple and unnecessary task.

Keep all the email correspondence handy incase law enforcement becomes involved down the road. Although it was completely unintentional on your part you were involved in commuting theft and the emails can help prove you were an unwilling participant.

Please post any information you have that's not already posted like phone numbers and email addressees it may help others avoid the scammers.

You can also report to your local police or to IC3 here http://www.ic3.gov/complaint/default.aspx but don't get your hopes up too much there is little that can be done.

Unfortunately, that "agreement" is not worth the paper it was written on. The company itself is fake, so there is no "Executive officer." The scammer just made up a name and signed it. It's not the scammer's real name.

As Justin already said, the USPS labels will not trace back to the scammers. They are most likely from a stolen account, or an account opened with a stolen credit card.

This whole scheme is intended to help thieves turn stolen/phished credit card or bank information into merchandise that they can use or re-sell.

Well add me to the list as well! I fell for it and now have "sucker" on my fore head! Now I am going to make it my mission to make others aware and not fall for the same scam! I think what makes me so mad is all I wanted was a job.
UPDATE: I have contacted a local news agency and they are interested.
I have also contact the better business bureau
These people can run and try to hide but they picked the wrong woman to mess with!
More updates soon........
