"Decal My Car for Miller Lite" Auto Car Wrapping Advertising Scam

Yes just received this, looked it up and it’s a scam:(

remove

got a call from bank today, deposited check yesterday. so I just looked this up, they got me 1550 dollars. I dont know how im gonna pay this back. I figured the bank would know if check was real

remove

Paul Hendley contacted me about 4 months ago and he never answered my questions. I told them I would not pay to have my car wrapped, they would have to pay for it.

Today I received a suspicious looking check in the mail that said to send an email stating my name, check number and amount. I did it from a friends email. Then four hours later sent me instructions to deposit check right away and get my car wrapped and send the rest back to him.

I actually couldn’t read the text, it was so badly written. Then went online found the article of the fraud; took a picture of the article and sent it to him. Now I m waiting to see if he answers!

remove

OMG! Yes I am a Victoms of this scam. I got a text message if I wanted to earn $500 a week for either 1or3 months (my choice).

They sent a real check from "Accociated Bank". THE COMPANY that this check is under is "Katz Properties INC." Office account. 614 W Brown Deer Rd. #300. Bayshore, WI 53217. Phone # the text came from #14159930735.

According to information research Katz Properties I a realastate company. The check came from UC Berkeley Distribution Center. 3200 Regatta Blv.Suite E. Richmond,Ca 94804.

I almost fell for it.

Thank God the lady's at my bank said it sounds funny and looked into as I was right there.

They alerted their security office about the scam.

I received a check for$2,596.86 from Independent Realty Co Escrow Account.

I thank the lady's at my bank.

I hope u pass this on.

O and the person's name that I was corresponding with is Alicia Peters.

Yes, I have gotten a text which I thought was a reply from a company I applied to from penny hoarder app and it’s exactly these people going By Kenneth Barker Hiring Manager.

Yet the email address is to a kimberlydx5.gmail unfortunately I have already sent my name address and email which they already had to them plus the make of my car.

Hope I’m good still.

8/17/2018, just received a text message offering $400/week for allowing small miller lite decals on my vehicle. Sounded like a scam.

I was sent a text message and emails from someone named michele peters; it was spelled out just like that too- no capitals. They even sent me the tracking number from USPS. Seems legit enough. IT'S NOT!

Yes this is a scam...How do I know it’s a scam because it happened to me

Wow.,i am reading every comment and i cannot believe this...

It was to good to be true, I did my research and I also went to my bank, the teller told me that it was a real check and the bank does exist, but I have yet to call the bank. I received a txt with a phone number of 1-856-244-8509

I didn't get an email, I received a text message on my phone. The number texting is 321-209-3743. The text read:

I played the game with "Carl" from Miller Lite. They sent me a check in the amount of $1998.79 from Ernest Roach Farms, Inc, Spanish Fork, Utah which is a legitimate business. The return address on the USPS Priority Mail was from Hob Nob Shop in Los Angeles, CA., another legitimate business. None of this made any sense.

The amount of the check was arbitrary, there were no watermarks on the check. Of course I didn't even think of depositing it, I forwarded it to the FBI. I imagine there is some Federal Penalty for impersonating Ernest Roach Farms, Hob Nob Shop, and Zion Bank.

Incidentally, they printed Zion Bank on the check with no address, and listed the website as zionsbank.com. The web address is a legit bank, but the web address is Zions with an "s" at the end.

Hope nobody falls for these low-life pukes that run these scams.
