Cool

Dear SamanthaCooper

Welcome to this forum. Please read this article.

"" Falling Victim To A Scam - WDTV ""

The point of this article is :

""If victims go along with the scam they become a suspect, and could face up to 10 years behind bars and pay a $2,500 fine"".

I suggest you not even accept to receive a check from this scam. If he will send you a check, keep all evidence and report him to police.

Cool

By the way Costa Coffee is a chain of self-service cofee shops (there are already 3 in the country I am located and I have visited one of them) and the only job could anyone to find is to be a barman oor barwoman to make coffee.
All mails are coming from scams who are using the title of this company.
We may see some day also such mails and from other companies like Starbucks or McDonalds and the point is everyone to use common sence and double check if the mail offer is real or not before respond.

PS I didn't like their coffee possibly because I am not used to such taste.
