I responded to a part time job ad on Kijiji and when the person (Douglas Webb) responded to me he explained that the job was to post sponsored job ads on the website indeed.ca. He explained that the pay would be $***/week or $***/bi-weekly or $$***/monthly and to let him know how I would like to be paid and that I had the option of money order or certified cheque. He then explained they would provide me with an email address to create under yahoo, as I would need this address to register and create a login into the site indeed.ca. He asked me to provide my name, mailing address, phone number for payment. He said after creating this account with indeed.ca, he would send me a detailed directory needed for the posting, and that I would need to do these postings 2-3 times per week. I asked if the pay had any deductions (tax), and if there would be a T4? He replied that the tax was taken care of and that the money was all mine. When I chose to be paid weekly by certified cheque, he then said they would be sending me a certified cheque in the amount of $***. He said they were sending me extra money as I needed to use this money to purchase Itune gift cards and that this money also included weekly pay. He asked me to purchase the gift cards from a WalMart near me but to provide the address of the Wal Mart to him that I would be purchasing them from. I tried to call the number provided under his name a few times, but got voicemail each time. I said I would prefer to speak to someone directly about all of this and wanted him to phone me. I then asked further questions on email, like how much of this was to be spent on Itune cards, and how much was weekly pay, and mentioned that something seemed "off" about this being legitimate. I said you are trusting me to send me $***? How do you know I will do what you ask?

This was the latest email I got back from him (note the weekly wage changed to $***/week; and the posting site change to Kijiji and now he is asking me to purchase the ITunes cards before I receive payment, saying I will be compensated):

Thanks for getting back to us with the Wal Mart address as requested. Be rest assured this is 100% legit and you have no cause for alarm. Also You can get the Itunes cards purchased. You are just to purchase like $*** worth of itunes card and it is only for this time. You will be receiving your weekly wages of $*** steadily. We will let you know when to receive the payment and the instructions needed to process the prepaid card.While waiting for the payment to arrive, we would like you to post on kijiji. There will be a compensation for this as well. Let us know if this is OK by you so that we can send you the directory needed. We will await your reply asap in respect to this.

I replied and said I would not be using any of my own money to purchase anything and said this felt like a scam to get me to purchase Itune gift cards (esp as he explains this $*** purchase was a one time purchase - of course it is! Cause then I would realize it was a scam!). I also pointed out to him that he changed the wage amount and posting site to Kijiji (from Indeed.ca).
