For those who assume that only Nigerians are scammers, think again. I baited this scammer, who appears to be located in Australia by using a fake name and untraceable email address. Unfortunately the bait has gone cold but I would like to post his emails with the hope that real victims will find this information before losing money.
It is a fairly straightforward Payment Representative scam. The victim believes that they are signing up for a legitimate Work-from-home opportunity. In reality the scammers will transfer fraudulent funds into the victims' bank account. The victim will then send approximately 95% of those fund to the scammer via Western Union. When the bank realises that the funds are no good the victim is left to pay the entire amount back to the bank. The scammer will be long gone.

Hello Dear Candidate,
Thank you for your interest in the position of Coordinator of Financial Services at the GermanProjects Ltd.,
JOB DESCRIPTION:
GermanProjects Ltd. is seeking a responsible, initiative person for the position of Coordinator of Financial Services who can develop and implement company's financing strategy in Australia.
DETAILS ABOUT POSITION:
Our company reduces tax rate for minor and developing companies in Germany. We don’t have representatives in Australia. In case of company expansion we are looking for employees for Coordinator of Financial Services position.
Reduction of tax rate implement by means of personalizing of money transfer. Cash asserts are divided into minor sums and transfer to personal accounts. This is the process of personalizing of money transfer. That is why we are looking for the employees who are located in Australia. We are not asking to do any fees. All expenses would be covered by our side. This job is absolutely legal.
The first 2 weeks are probation period. During this time, you have to accept money from our partners on your account and resend it through Western Union or Money Gram to our agents. These transfers are not going to be taxed, because these are private transfers.
After probation period we will send you all necessary documents and you will join our team. Advantage in this work, you start to earn money during the probation period. It means you will have your % from each money transfer.
First of all, you have to learn all instructions and fill in the form with your personal information, which you will find below. If you accept all conditions of work – send it back to us.
Below you will find all procedures what you have to do and how to do it.
For the beginning you have to provide for us your account details and other necessary information. You can use any account (your personal account or open a new account with 0 balances, just for operating with us).
The company will transfer sum of money to your account. We will inform you about this.
After receiving the money on your account, you have to resend it through Western Union or Money Gram to our agents. They are also private people.
We offer you 5 % from initial transfer for your service. It will take 1-2 hours of your time per day from Monday till Friday. Sum of money transfers will be from 1000 to 5000 AUD.
During our cooperation generally we prefer e-mail as a means of communication.
OUR GUARANTY:
Dear Candidate in case You will ask " In what the guaranty of our company that money which we transfer to your bank account, will return to our representative ?"...Here's Your answer:”Yes! We trust You and in the same time We co-operate with Australian Federal Police, it means if You will not fulfill your obligations we will give the demand in Australian Federal Police”.
You will Make Real Money with US and for that You only should follow procedures, and should remain the reliable person.
PROCEDURES:
1. You have to check your e-mail box in the morning every day(usually notice about the transfer will be at 8 o’clock in the morning at your e-mail box). Also check your mobile phone, because sometimes we send SMS as well as e-mail.
2. After receiving notice – check your bank account. Sometimes it can be some bank delays (hours or even days).
3. After this you have to go to any bank office or using ATM for withdraws the money. (Bank offices start working at 9.30)
From this sum you should take your 5%.
Example: You receive 5000$. 5% from the 5000$ =250$.
250$ – this is your part.
4. The rest of the money you have to resend to our representative, just paying for the Western Union service (fee) from this money as well. Ex. 5000$ –250$– Western Union fee = the rest you have to send. Information about our representative you will receive by e-mail p.1.

We are going to transfer sum of money to your account and when you receive money, in the same day you will take your 5% from this money and rest of money you will resend through Western Union to our agents. They are also private people. Information about private people we will give you by email. That’s all.. You earn money and do the job the same time.
Remember!! Quality of your work depends only on your immediacy. We agree with the opinion that “Time is Money”!
