In the process of being reported for fraud

The hilarious thing is that the 'money mules' who've been reported to the banks and police are inevitably of non-UK origin, so you have to wonder why they write the sites in English. Obviously 'money mules' of any origin will end up having their accounts referred to the police for investigation and the bank for closure but the sites are being directed at those least likely to be interested in their offer.

It's clearly important that they try to lure local victims to participate in their fraudulent activities in the hope that it will make it more difficult for the authorities to take action, but the discrepancy in that idea is that it doesn't make any difference.

I have received an email from a guy call James Taylor from Finance Drive Ltd stating that he looked at my cv through Jobsite UK. I have never uploaded my cv onto this website. I emailed him back asking for more information and he has since then emailed me twice asking me to consider the job. Isn't what they are doing money laundering??? I was gulliable at first but then spoke to my mum, who said to contact the police or trading standards.

thank goodness I have not went ahead with providing any bank account details.

Do you think I should take this further with the police etc?

thanks

Welcome to Scamwarners linsb.

Don't take this the wrong way, but they're stealing and they want you to money launder the money for them.

The consequences of getting involved could be life changing and I've posted a news report from last year showing what could be the result - the police hammering down your door, your account getting shut and you being black listed and more.

It's professional organised crime and most of their mules are professional criminals too, so you can see how dangerous it is to get involved with them. If you money launder, you commit a crime and though you may avoid prosecution the consequences are still potentially horrific.

Bearing in mind that you hand your personal details to organised crime, they then have everything they need to cause unlimited damage to you and it could take months or years to get everything put right. They even go as far as asking for you internet banking password, but that's optional. At that stage they can block you out and take over your life.

There's no need to do anything as long as you haven't divulged sensitive information. They won't stop sending mails and creating websites as they have many millions of pounds to launder. The scale of it is incredible, and they care nothing about you.

Hello all,
I also received a couple of messages from them, first time that guy James Taylor contacted me on 28/06/13.
I filled the form below in and sent it back. I've got a question if they can hurt me having my real name and surname an mobile phone number. It was very suspicious to me, so I didn't give any personal details, no bank details or anything like that. I had some concerns and ask him to answer but he didn't reply.
Their website looks genuine but you can do it when you have a lot of money, that's why.

Welcome to Scamwarners CrystalClear.

The websites actually cost very little to set up and they're largely copies of each other, so little thought or effort is put in to them apart from setting up the initial template.

The authorities believe that those behind it are actually selling these sites to other scammers as a full working scam kit, which makes sense as it explains why so many are being produced.

I've got a friend who got into trouble more then 4 years ago. She got involved with other similar company. First transfer was ok, she put £250 into her pocket. When next transfer of £5000 arrived she was looking forward to earning around £500. Instead her bank account was closed and she was lucky that there were no police involved. She opened bank account with other bank and it looked like they didn't check why she had left her previous bank. It was her who warned me. I am nearly got myself into trouble. Thanks to her I didn't got involved. She was keeping it for herself for more then 4 years, I do understand why. That's why I am warning other people.
