I am so glad today I sent it back to the address on the envelope. Who knows if it is even the right address. So sad I watch this stuff every week on date line and prime time, and I still fell for it. It is easy to do when you are needing money. I hope I am done with this. I hope they don't try to say I have to pay shipping and handling fees or something. Has any one else cashed a check or returned it from Binio Trading co.

Fell for this one
I to fell for this scam. I found out it was a scam when the check I deposited bounced. Now I'm stuck with the fees from my bank. Thank goodness I waited for the check to clear before I forwarded the funds. Someone should be able to stop these fools. I received a check with names and an address on it. That was an actual account closed just before I tried to deposit the check. I am doing my own investigation and trying to track down the peoples names on my check. I have even contacted my local news channel. If you receive a check don't cash it. In fact don't even respond.

I recently recieved a email from career-builders from a company called Omiso BV. I am badly in need for a job. This sounded Oh so good. I had it in the back of head that it may be a scam, but was not sure. I started to do a little research, and found this site by chance. I'm glad I did, It answer all my question about this email, since so many other got the same email word for word. I give thanks to God that he led me to this site.

Another Scam
I received an offer similar to what everyone is talking about: receive checks from unknown persons, deposit in your own account, send money back to unknown. Unfortunately, I deleted the emails a few weeks ago so I don't have them to post here.
The offer came through Career Builders and was from a company based in Russia (flag) so I couldn't find any info on them. Receive checks, deposit into my account, keep 5% of amount as my fee, send the rest Western Union to specified person. I had to give them my home address, phone number, email. Also had to sign a contract which stated that once receiving the check, money must be deposited immediately and sent Western Union (minus my 5% fee) WITHIN 24 HOURS (flag) or I would lose 1% of my fee for every 24hrs that the money was not sent. I replied back that I was very interested (I wasn't because I knew this was a scam) but that if they could possible change the contract to state transfering the money within 4 business days because the check would not clear (funds would not be available) within 24 hours. They never replied back. What a surprise! Actually, there was an article in the Buffalo News a few weeks ago (which I could not find in their archives because I wanted to post the link here) that discussed this exact scam. What I was most surprised about from the article is that the check might clear in a few days (which makes you think the check is good), but it may take up to a FEW WEEKS for the bank to actually realize that it was a phoney check. By that time, you have already sent the money. So, you are out the money plus any fees you must pay to the bank.
