Personal Assistant Scam
Sun, 2009/11/22 - 20:14This was found on Craigs List. What is interesting about this one is that "Mark Fernandez" gives you no personal info on himself except the bait in the first paragraph.
He initiated this contact from a gmail account and sent this back from AOL. I think whenever you see that online "application", it is best to turn and run as I did.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I am Mark Fernandez, I am the CEO of JIL Construction company, we provide full-service General Contracting, Construction Management, Design/Build, and Underground Utility Construction . We also have an on-site metal fabrication shop.. I'm sure you'll understand I tend to have a very busy schedule at this point, as I am presently in New York, I will be back in the states in Three Weeks.
I think you're the right person for this position , Please note that this position is not office based for now because of my frequent travels and tight schedules, it's a part-time,
work from home basis and the flexibility means that there will be busier weeks than others, so it's a little difficult judging the exact number of hours you'll be doing per week. If you can manage your time properly, this job may even give you some extra while you do something else on the side. As I have said, I'd want us to get a head start with things as soon as possible. I do have a pile up of work and a number of unattended chores which you can immediately assist me with, I hope we can meet up with the workload eventually. Permit me to use the coming week to test your efficiency and diligence towards all this, also to work out your time schedule and fit it to mine. I really need to find the perfect person for this job, I'm confident you can take up the challenge and on the long run we should have a relatively sound working relationship between us. It may be a little difficult working out the time difference between us initially, with time however, we should get used to it. I'm online most of the time as I am hard of hearing so I prefer to we contact each other through E-mails, but if there is need for me to call, I will make use of the online means of making phone calls. I am glad you are willing to work with me and i promise to be a good boss. I am also glad on the commitment in working. I have been checking my files and what i would want you to do for me this week is to run some errands out to some of the orphanage home, I do that every month . The funds will be in form of Money Order and it will be sent over to you from one of my clients and i have some list to email you once you received the funds,You will make some arrangements by buying some stuff for the kids in the nearest store around you so you can mail them out. I will get you more information on that,I will like you to get back to me with your Contact Details such as:
Full Name:
Contact Address NO P.O BOX:
City:
State:
Zip-Code:
Phone Number:
Occupation:

Once I have received your contact information, I will get back to you with the task for this week,Understand you will also be paid as well as its important for me to make the
