Hiring Department
Mrs Tamara Downing.

Please do not apply with Primary Health Care Limited!!!!

What do I need to do if I fell for it?????

Welcome to ScamWarners Brodi93, I am sorry you fell for the scam.

Anything the scammers have sent to you are forgeries. Any items sent you will have been purchased using stolen credit cards or from accounts which have been hijacked or stolen.

It will help us help you if you let us know what "duties" they are having you do. Also let us know the method of payment.

If they are asking you to deposit checks into your account, then forward part of the money to them by Western Union STOP DOING THAT.

Please post the information here or to me or another Moderator so we can help you get out of the scam.

This is a great company to work for

...if you want to end up in jail. This post was either made by the scammer himself, trying to make the scam look more legitimate, or a confused victim who still doesn't understand what is going. Either way, the original posts are accurate--stay away. -dotti

Okay what is wrong with this company. I haven't actually started working because they want to send out checks. I said no and they are supposed to offer me another position but they haven't told me what the position is I gave them my bank information. Did I make a mistake?

I'm glad that you have come back, Ron.

This is NOT a legitimate company. It is NOT a legitimate job. The people "hiring" you are thieves. They are using fake names, addresses, and a company name that is either completely fake or a real company that is unconnected to them. They create these fake jobs in order to recruit victims to launder money and/or cash fraudulent checks for them.

If you are sent a check, it will be fraudulent, but it may be good enough to pass initial inspection, and the bank may credit you for the deposit. If they ask you to print and send checks, they will be fraudulent, written on phished or hacked bank accounts belonging to innocent people and businesses.

Sometimes they will want you to receive bank transfers--this money will again be transferred from bank accounts of innocent people who have been phished or hacked.

In all of these cases, eventually the bank will discover the fraud. And when they do, they won't be able to trace the actual thieves, but they will be able to trace you--and not only go after you for any money lost, but they can also call the authorities and have you charged as a party to some pretty serious crimes.

If you have given your bank account details to these thieves, you should contact the fraud department of your bank, and explain what has happened. They will tell you if they feel any action is necessary in addition to monitoring your account.

thanks dotti. i wish the authoritys could actually go after the real culprits. how can scammers gey away with these crimes and have inocent poeple face potentional criminal charges for crimes they have master minded?
It seems backward that a person (the scammer) can do the crime and have somebody else do the the time.

They are also using this name Venus Remedies lts see the chat below

BUZZ!!!

She Buzzed me 2x's because I quit talking to her....

Welcome to ScamWarners beccablair, Thank you for posting this information.

This is the best thing you could have done:

I quit talking to her....

OMG! This is the exact same IM conversation I just had this morning with a Mrs. Patsy Colvin from Venus Remedies Limited. I just research Venus Remedies Limited on LinkedIn - they are legitimate company based in India. Mrs. Patsy Colvin was evasive about sending me in writing about her company information and kept insisting the money for the software was Third Party. What a scam! And to think I almost fell for it until she mentioned the money I would have to pay for the supposed software.

Thank you Scam Warners for your information!

Thank you for posting this recent information. You are correct - it is the same scam. The scammers change their fake company name frequently, because they don't want potential victims to find previous scam reports.

Could you please post the email addresses, IM usernames the scammers used, and any websites they used (if any?) This will help even more potential victims to avoid falling for the scam.
