Amazon Imposter

Type of a scam Employment

This company will sent you a link to read about the job opportunity (http://576902770757.loodpetroleumgh.com/). Sounds great, just put your information in and they will call you. Got a call and they sent me an email with a contract asking for a selfie with my driver's license and then a copy of just my driver's license. Attached is the contract stating that full time you can make about 5k a month plus 5% commission. I have worked in a commission based job and that sounded sketchy. So I called the number at the bottom of the email and what are the chances that it was the same guy I talked to the previous day from a different phone number. When I asked what the job initialed he stated that they pay merchants for amazon and that money will be deposited into my bank account and then I would withdraw the money and "pay their clients" with the money. So just to do my researched a little more, I contacted Amazon and asked if this job even excised. Low and behold they did not and advised that what I was receiving was a scam.

Scam Description

received a voicemail saying they reviewed my online resume and had open positions working with "Amazon" listing products and posting reviews that paid anywhere from $17-$32 hr. Female said to apply today as they are only hiring 23 people and to apply to "stockretail.org". I looked at their site which immediately looked suspicious. Also, it seems they have different names, i.e. "stockretail.com" etc. The positions are not on a job site with job description but rather a scam for you to pay for a training kit. I checked the Amazon site and they have no such jobs listed. This is a scam!

Beware of anyone who calls as Amazon with an offer for an affiliate program that sets you up with a domain and full marketing support for a one time fee. They get you with a one letter difference from the email account they send you (webpartnerrs). It is actually a multi-layered scam. They say they are with Amazon but the agreement paperwork they send is for Online Marketing Gurus LLC and as far as I can tell, that isn't who they are either. I have Amazon investigating and disputing the charge with my bank.

I had a voicemail on my phone but no missing calls. The prerecorded message said something about Amazon wanting to hire me because they found my resume online. It told me to go to storejobs.org and sign up for an employment opportunity working online for Amazon making reviews and testing products that would pay anywhere from $17-$23/hour.

Today I missed a call from a number indicating it was from Amazon. I checked my orders, emails and nothing was out of the ordinary. I called the number back to make sure nothing was wrong. It was a long recording about becoming an Amazon "affiliate" for an investment of $200. It was a very long message and got very confusing. They kept using the Amazon name over and over. It was about setting up your own website and "working" for Amazon. The fee is $200 and if you are interested then you are supposed to leave all of your personal information. I feel like it is very sketchy.

Hello,

I got a call on 6/6/2018 from a number that said “We’re hiring 25 workers in your area to work for Amazon.com”. They informed me to visit internetprofits.com and work from home. Earn $500/day...

The number that left the message was (617) 396 3631. Another caller's ID was (410)989-4470. None of these numbers are useful.

The website InternetProfit.org is asking for $47 to sign up and promises large income by working form home.

THIS IS A SCAM!!

do not pay a penny!

This number is used as a customer service number for Amazon. Then they ask for all sorts of account information, saying that someone else is trying to use your account. (Which is what they are trying to do.) It is listed on the front cover of a book that they are supposedly selling for 0-$1 on Amazon. When I was in the top search line of Amazon, I requested a customer service number, and this book came up. They then tried to get a $489 gift card charged to my account. I am assuming that they thought anything under $500 was not checked.

This company uses Amazon to say you won a reward and when you select a watch and agree to pay postage they sneak i. A 14 day trial period in tiny print that's pages long so after t's over they tap your account then you find out it was not from Amazon at all bit they used Amazon to trick you into thinking you won a reward that you had an option of choosing from a list. The bank does not want to refu d your money because you did not authorize the full amount other than the postage even though this company fraudulently used Amazon who stated they never use this tactic. It is truly upsetting to know you lose to this company who has probably gained millions of dollars from people like me who just thought I was paying for the shipping of the free gift.
