I'm dealing with bill.smith149@yahoo.com now. Thank you for the advice folks. I kind of had my suspicions so I Googled the email address. Sure enough, lol.

These people have gotten into facebook. They are saying that you won some sort of lottery and requesting that you send $2,000 as a processing fee.

the son of a bi*** using this phone number... and the email address bill.smith149@yahoo.com.. had me going for a little while. i posted an ad on kijiji looking for work.. he replied to me via text saying that he had a job offer for me and to contact the email address i mentioned above, for details. so, like a fool, i did.. he got back to me saying he was the owner of a company called Belk Survey and was looking to hire mystery shoppers. I qualified for the job after he had all my personal info. he told me my address was needed for sending payments (check/money orders) to me in the mail. also, that my name and phone was required for the database. after i sent him everything he needed for this so called mystery shopper job, he wanted me to help him post a cleaning ad on kijiji and get back to him with the email and password used. also wanted me to open a new yahoo account with the name King Emmanual and the password to be godofmagic. That was when I caught on to the fact that this whole this was NOT legit. I just googled this phone number.. 1 646 504 0591.. and this is the site it led me too. i will get the little f****r.. that is a promise! i have absolutely no time for crooks like this!!!

Nothing is wrong with this number though...its real

This isn't the infamous "Bruce Zailo" posting fake job ads on craigslist, is it?

Hi Heather, same thing happened to me. There are posts all over with these Nigerian guys from ohio, california and new york pretending to hire you as a cleaner. Its a bogus. thanks for posting. I have all of their ips adresses and I am in process of getting as much info as i can about these crooks.

This is a bogus number and this individual will tell people they are being hired to do work.  A cheque is sent out and the reciever of the cheque is told to send back 1200.00 through western union however the cheque that is sent out is a fraud.
