Someone is making money from all the suckers (sorry! but they are) who pay for this. The 'job' probably involves trying to persuade more suckers to join, nothing more than that. No job pays such high sums for just a few hours work, why would it?0

Please, Please, Please, anyone who receives a job offer from DS Trading company in USA, do not reploy and contact Trading Standards with the details. I too was offered a job by these people having searced for ages for a genuine work from home opportunity. They post ads on the big job boards and even purchase CV search access too and get your contact details from there.
They are a genuine Money Laundering Scam, they paid funds into my bank account from an account of a woman who's bank details they had stolen. If you receive these funds and then do as they say and transfer them to their "clients" (less your 10% cut - salary) via western union you are liable to be arrested. If you have resopnded and given them your bank details, contact your bank immediately as stolen funds to your account will be imminent and if you contact your bank first you will be signalling you are not involved in their huge scam ring.
Please be warned people. If you check Western Union's website it also has an alert on there about the scam and if you google money laundering scam or money transfer scam (and/or) Job you will see just how concerning it is.
Be careful, these people don't care who they involve.0 -
I think a safe bet is that any advert/email that starts with "This is not SPAM!" and always capitalises "EXTRA CASH" as if you may have difficulties reading the words otherwise, is generally a scam hehe.£2 Savers Club no.91 = ?? (unknown until full and counted)
Review writing = £3.60 + $25.00
Myhpf = £4.45
STP = £1.82 v10.040 -
Yep - I just got scammed by DS. Now Barclays has closed my a/c - even though I didn't transfer any cash to anywhere. They paid money (DS) in, and it was immediatly taken back out by USA bank of origin. Can't contact Barclays till Monday. Misery.0
