267-587-7391

I first received am email from a reply on Craigslist and this was the listed number I then received a text from this number asking for my verification code from Craigslist once I said no they quickly ended the conversation the email said the guys name was Frank and it was definitely a scam

I just got a message from a "steve helb" offering me a job with 267-587-7391 for a reply # ... SCAM SCAM SCAM!!

I'm sorry you guys didn't trust that guy he is actually legitimate and i am now employed with his co. Making 400$ a week with working around 6-10 hours a week. If that sometimes all Work is done from a computer. I didn't believe him at first til I actually received a check that didn't bounce from him. I was like okay, this is the benefit I get for taking risks and not being afraid, nor judging a book by it's cover. And I now make a little over )4000 a month at the age of 24 working with him and working my full time job.

Shills – like you – are frowned upon around here.

We do not believe your tale.
You did not tell us the name, website, address or business of the supposed caller.
All you did was find your way to a site that deals mainly with phone COMPLAINTS, and attempt to legitimize a number that received a complaint several months ago.  Typical shill activity.

The Craigslist "job offer" scam is well known, and you have done nothing to dispel it.

The caller congratulates you on your job application - the one you posted in Craigslist or some other job application site - being accepted. Sometimes they ask for a fee. Sometimes they will send you a check as an "advance payment". All you have to do is reply, and send them a lot of personal information. Now the bad part: the scammer can use that personal information to steal your identity. Any "fee" you send will soon disappear. The check they might have sent will bounce. There are several variations to this scam.

Yours was one of the worst SHILL posts we've seen in a while!
Listen-up, you scamming little puke, If you can't compose a post correctly...DON"T TRY!  You're a foreign FRAUD! That's OBVIOUS!
The "$" sign comes BEFORE the digits, you MORON! It may also help if you brushed up on your English. You may be good compared to your fellow parasites but, believe me, you aren't up to the job of dealing with us here!
Skeff Ett Liv!

Gunnar -

A couple of observations - in addition to the shilly post in this thread, there were several shilly posts in the last few minutes, advocating certain online pharmacies (in India?)  Might have been the same shiller, practicing his new job, at an internet cafe that had an open table.  He might be sipping Chhaang (no, not "cha-ching"), and the fermented grain has gone to his head.

So, the shill's statement that he makes "4000" a month might be correct ... however, that would be 4000 rupees (about $66) per month.

A lot of these pharmacy spams may be from Russia. I've been doing a few 'whois' & that's where I'm landing. 4000 rupees? Wow! He must be the boss, no one else gets paid like that. R118 tops, & free Boiler-room urine pant stain remover.

i replied to this message on Craigslist and i was told that it was for advertising by having someone put a wrap on my car, and that i would be paid 4oo.dollars weekly to keep these advertisements on my car. i am still waiting for "the payment" and a contact who will be putting this advertisement on my car.

Alright, you're not gonna call me a moron and a foreign scrub, guy... as I am neither. I work hard for what I do, don't get all angry because you passed up on an opportunity that you could've benefitted from. The company name and phone number is none of damn business you typical negative American... sorry I didn't place a dollar sign in front of the $400 I didn't know you were part of the typing with correct symbols police. What the hell is a shill anyway?

If you don't like it, tough! And you have nothing any of us needs bottom line. Personally I don't do and won't do business with someone that cold calls breaking our DNC laws. And I certainly don't go for garbage Craigslist male cow bowel matter. And if we are negative, its because people like you cause it!  

Google is your friend: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shill

"You typical negative American."   Right.   No matter how hard you try to write neutral American English,  the Hindi scammer   keeps coming through.  Worthless scammer.  This site and others like it must be cutting into your income stream.  Which is good.

You post is bullcrap-I've seen too many of those work-at-home sites and I'm betting the one you went with is one of those you saw on a news article online!

Yep,

I bet scamming people IS hard work  for you  - especially since many have been alerted to the scam.

Secret society???  "The company name & phone number is none of d--- business".  That says a lot about it!!  Nice professional language & you missed "your" in your tirade.  Shill - look it up in the MEDIA!

we're all laughing at you now.
just give up.



buh bye

Ok, there are a lot of posts on here concerning what "Phillip T" posted. Although, what brought me to this site was the name Steve Helb. And YES! STEVE HELB is a big time SCAMMER on CRAIGSLIST, from somewhere, where English is definitely not their first language. Beware the person that goes by this fake name on Craigslist is a check printing scammer and go's along with every other check printing story you may have read/heard about. He will try to make you print checks for legit companies, and then tell you to practically forge a signature!  -once again Americans are the fallen pawns to obliviality-

i replied to this message on Craigslist and i was told that it was for advertising by having someone put a wrap on my car, and that i would be paid $400 dollars weekly to keep these advertisements on my car. i received the check then I called the company to verify if the check is good they told me the check is no good some one is printing the check by there name .

The FTC warns about the car wrap scam:

I had posted a babysitting ad on gregslist to help business. Well this number txted me at 2am weird for one. Then wanted my email address. His wife sent me email supposedly asking for all my info name, address, ect. Told me that he would send me a check up front for $390 to go to his apartment and make sure they had all the supply's they needed before they moved from Philadelphia to Bowling Green, Ky on the 11th. I informed I wouldn't do the offer because it seemed to good to be true to pay me that much for 9 hrs a wk. Even if it wasn't a scam even tho I believe it was I couldn't take that. I would feel like I was stealing. Although my family could use it but, if it is a scam its very wrong to get peoples hopes up. I'm trying to save people money for daycare not screw them.so for who ever this is and is doing this to people my prayers are with you hope you do the right thing and stop.

I got a guy named James Lates same number but I got it off of a website called sitter city offering me $400 weekly at first i gave him the benefit of the doubt but the checks were seized by the usps inspector
