Aquafina Water Imposter Car Wrap Reports & Reviews (81)

Received a text message from a John Ambrose saying he is a customer care rep for Aquafina Water. Said he would send me a check for 5100.00 and from that I was to pay the detailer 4100.00 to wrap my truck. Then the next thing he ask is for banking info. Phone # 321-802-1379. When I started asking questions the texts stopped. Scam!

You've got a new message
Hello, This is to inform you that you have been successfully entered into the Advert of AQUAFINA PURE WATER program. The Advertisement period for now is six months and You will therefore receive your payment alongside the money that will be paid to the national car Detailer (expert) in the mail. A check of $2,750 would be mailed to you to cover your 1st week rental payment paycheck and for the Vinyl decals designer's expenses for affixing the decals on your vehicle and also for its removal cost at the expiration of the advert program. So, when you receive the payment, you will take out your first week pay of $700 and the rest of the funds should be forwarded to the decals expert that will put the decal on your vehicle. In view of this, please confirm the following details: (1) How long do you intend to carry the advertisement on your car? One (1) month, two (2) months or three (3) months? (2) Do you use your car everyday? (3) Re-confirm your Name and Address as it should be on the check, so the payment won't delivered to wrong address...? (4) Did you have bank account to deposit the check ? We are not asking for your account details Regards Marketing Manager Desmond Whitley

I am guessing that your company did not authorize this advertisement. I am very frustrated because I have been looking for something I could do to earn extra income and since I drink Aquafina Water I thought this would be perfect.

Thank you,
Deborah K Davis

Currently in same situation. Leroy is asking why I have not deposited the check and, I am doing research to know if I need to send back the envelope unopened. Sounds too good to be true.

I too have received a text about an Aquafina car wrap promo. But in the beginning they stated a sticker and did not start using wrap until I had mentioned it.
All the texts came from phone number 1(646)494-7421
Got the person a little testy when I asked the name, address and landline of the company he works for. I also asked for the name of the graphics company, then I was asked if they should omit my payment. I said no (hey just want to add it to my stack.

I have filed complaints, reports with law enforcement. Nothing they can do.
But as a concerned citizen I do make two phone calls or emails to the bank listed on the check (might take some doing, these bank hide contact info for the fraud division, any I notify them of the potential fraud, if possible I send copies of the check, envelope in came in with shipping info and anything that was in the envelope with the check.
I also contact the company the check is supposed to be from, they are usually very thankful. I also forward the same copies to them.

I have found that your local law enforcement don't really give a hoot, FBI is booked solid.
If I have the time I play with these guys, lead them on. I have assisted in getting 2 scamming groups tossed in the slammer. One time I actually scammed the scammer.
I have a stack of fake checks a new job from a Chinese company that paid me $226,459.90 up front to process payments, another for $1,683,982.63 to purchase investment opportunities here in the US for a Iranian investment group, car wraps, car stickers well the stack is about 14' high and growing.
I have been doing this for 3 years, I answer the ads, I waste their time and I post their info on websites, I still pass the info on to local and federal agencies via an email.

Don't get scammed.

Remember tis old saying: "If it sounds to good to be true, it's not"

Also keep in mind that:

1) Companies do not pay you upfront payroll.
2) Companies would not give extra money to a total stranger so you can pay the company they hired.

This is the text sent to me below. The gentlemen got upset & cursed me out because I hadn't deposited the check for 2 days and also I told him I wanted to meet at the company not at my home. I have more text and also recorded our phone conversation as well.

Actual text sent to me below-

Miss ... You must deposit the check and give the remainder of what is owed to the Graphic agent that’s going to place the decals on the car that’s coming with the paperwork and that’s when they’re been paid.Your weekly payment for the advertisement is 500 per week.
