I found the job posting in the newspaper. I received the exact same email message. The only thing they changed is the name of the company. I received a package via UPS with instructions and two separate money orders that are from David Bird who says he is from the payment department of Paid To Drive. The email address used is markhoffman115@hotmail.com.  Thanks for the heads up about it being a scam.

Thank you for the info.  I almost did this and would've been scammed.  Thank goodness I Googled the company, "LinkShareConsults" and ended up here.  Please note the pay is different and return email address is different, but everything else is the same.  Be careful!  Also, don't forget to mark this email as "spam" in your email program or you may get more of these under different guises.

Subject: Get paid driving our Ads on your car($250 Weekly)

How it works Here's, the basic premise of the "paid to drive" concept. LinkShareConsults seeks people, regular citizens and professional drivers -- to go about their normal routine as they usually do, only with a big advert for "LinkShareConsults" plastered on your car.The ads are typically vinyl decals, also known as "auto wraps," that almost seem to be painted on the vehicle, and which will cover any portion of your car's exterior surface.

What does the company get out of this type of ad strategy? Lots of exposure and awareness.The auto wraps tend to be colorful and eye-catching and attract lots of attention. Plus, it's a form of advertising with a captive audience,meaning people who are stuck in traffic and can't avoid seeing the wrapped car alongside them. This program will last for 4 months and the minimum period you can participate is 1 month.

You will be compensated with a $250 (Two hundred and fifty dollars per Week),which is essentially a "rental" payment for letting our company use the space.LinkShareConsults shall provide experts that would handle the advert placing on your car.You will receive an up front payment of $250 (Two hundred and fifty dollars) in form of a Money order for accepting to carry this advert on your car and other weekly payments will also come in the form of Money Orders and delivered to your address weekly.

Of course there are certain requirements, if you want your application to get accepted:

   * You must be 18 years old or older.

   * You must be a permanent resident of U.S

   * You have to have a valid driver's license.

   * You must have a good driving record with no serious violations in the last two years.

   * You have to agree to drive a minimum amount of miles every month, which is usually at least 250 miles. Don't believe that you can cheat the system and report a false mileage to get more money. The company might install a GPS unit on your automobile or check your mileage odometer for verification.

Additionally there are a few things you can do to increase your paycheck, like driving in highly populated areas, parking for many hours in a high traffic area and be willing to attend special events, like parades or sports events.

The following information below will be needed :

Full Name:
Occupation:
Make of car/ year:

We shall be contacting you as soon as we receive these information, LinkShareConsults looks forward to working with you.

TOTALLY A SCAM.  How could you think it is any different? I am 100% certain.
I can tell because 1#  UK email address in the USA
#2 doesn't make sense
#3 they get copies of your id for identity theft
#3 they get you cashing fake money orders for them
#4 they are not a legal entity/ business in the USA, just similarly named to businesses
#5 looks like it is written by a Nigerian - no offense to Nigerians, I am sure there are plenty of cool Nigerians in the world.  Just this guy writes in an ESL fashion.
So - this the ad in it's entirety to help others learn that this is a SCAM.

The ad is as follows:

My husband asked if I thought this was real.  He recieved the same email from a craigslist ad.  I didn't think it was real so I started looking up the name on the email and found this website.  We had almost been scammed years ago when trying to rent out our house.  I'm glad I found this.

I got this email from a job I replied to on Craigslist. (surprise! o_____O) I googled River Edge Health Center and the information doesn't add up. There is a couple of similarily named centers. He is sending it from a gmail address. If he is really a Doctor, there would be credentials, etc.  Doctors use M.D. after their name. Doctors are arrogant and they would never leave that off or use their credentials like that.  If he is in New Jersey why would he need an apartment in NY? for 6 days? Uhn hmmm... I am no Columbo but this reads scam to me. I have half a mind to tell him to pay it via pay pal. You cannot scam on Paypal! I am not wasting my time with this. There are fake money orders and they can fake checks. I won't be responding back!

This call came in because I responded to a job posting from Craigslist.

Then he called me back (on my landline because I refused to give him my cell #) and he asked me for the code.  Of course, I didn't go any further.
