Hi I received an e-mail from a company called Waverly Finance Solutions offering me a job,I had put my CV on a website so presume they got it from there,but it sounds a bit 'dodgy',no interview and asking me to transfer money they will give me via Western Union etc,they have asked for my bank details,but I will not give them that,has anyone heard of them,or if it is indeed a scam??Thanks very much.

100% scam...If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands

It's definitely a scam, quite possibly money laundering. I read something in a magazine about a woman who accepted this kind of job and ended up in prison for money laundering.There is nothing better in life than writing on the sole of your slipper with a biro.....0

if someone offers you a job, and you havent had an interview - it's a scam.
If someone offers you a job, but wants you to pay them, that is not the way the employer/employee relationship normally goes and is also a scam..0 -
The scam is that they transfer money into your account, you send it to their associate via western union and keep your commission, but then it transpires that the money is stolen so it's clawed back from your account leaving you massively overdrawn and with possibly legal problems.If at first you don't succeed, maybe bomb disposal isn't the best career choice.0
