Online Threat Alerts (OTA)

The fake "AMP Energy Drink Car Wrap" message below is another vehicle wrapping and fake check scam. The scam claims that vehicle owners with a driver's license can be paid $600 or more weekly via check to have their vehicle wrapped in an advertisement. The scammers behind this fraudulent website will send you fake checks, ask you to take your share of the money and wire the rest to a graphic designer, or give it to someone else. But, the checks are fakes and will bounce. The wired money will actually go to the scammers behind this fraudulent scheme. You will then be left to pay back the bank the wired amount and other charges associated with the processing of the check. Whenever you receive offers that are too good to be true, please do your research before participating, even if the offers seem legitimate.

My experience was a mobile phone text that presented this offer to get my car wrapped with the AMP Energy Drink Logo for the duration of the advertisement campaign which was to run for 3 months. David Milligan, Relationship Manager, Amp Energy Drink AdTeam., Phone (312) 967-4012. The cashier's check sent to me via FedEx, was in the amount of $4650. The Remitter on the check is TIMOTHY G MILLER. The Bank: HOMETOWN Bank, without a branch address/location. The return address on the FedEx envelope I Agilent Technologies, Inc, 560 Station Street, Pittsburgh PA 15235, Google Maps show this to be a red bricked apartment complex.
While this was sent via FedEx, It is mail fraud. They paid FedEx to ship their scam check to me along with a detailed instruction page on what do with the check...deposit, send a deposit confirmation receipt to the phone number above.

Same thing here, I got a check for 1550.00. The first tipoff was the bad English on the letter they enclosed with the check! And I did not cash it... I think I am going to report it to the police and the Post Office. Unless we do that this stuff just keeps happening!

I received a $4,700 check from the amp campaign but the check was from penn medicine. Teresa White at 1 (321) 757-1130 is who I was to contact when I deposited the check. I took the check to my bank and had them look at it because I was already skeptical. Why would you only want me to text you the deposit slip? Don’t fall for that c**p! I have reported the name and number to fraud. Y’all be careful because not all money is good money.

I got a check for 4,700.00 supposed to be from AMP energy drink however the check came from ALL PRO WATERCRAFT & ATV SERVICE INC. the address on the check was down the street from the Business listed above which was odd. Business name but different addresses? Less than a block apart? So I decided to write the business myself to see if they new they sent me a check im still waiting for a response .

Yes they offered me 3900 check but I told them I felt it was a scam and was assured it wasn't so I ask for credentials and licenses to prove otherwise I'm still waiting. Lol
