I too, received an e-mail job in regards to a backload and re-orginization of HSBC with the same letters received by Debbie. I went one step further, however, to confirm the scam and received this as my last e-mail... and my response... NOTICE HOW THEY NOW WANT ME TO SEND BACK THE BALANCE OF THE FUNDS BEING SENT - this was NEVER mentioned in the first two e-mails...
My bank and I would like to know what are the total funds coming and how much is to be sent back to you for shipping costs - my bank is concerned about fraudulent activities and is wary about cashing money orders without verification. They told me they now verify ALL money orders/drafts as they have had quiet a few when verifying with the issuing bank that have been fraudulent so it will take some time to confirm funds before they will cash... they have asked me for a name and number/contact to verify authenticity. Many thanks!!!
