Be careful of John Doherty, he has tricked me into depositing counterfeit checks, and I am now facing fines from my bank. I will be reporting him for fraud. He first said that he was going to send me a week's advance ($600) to secure that I would work for him. I actually received $4,000 from Speedway America, which he said was a mistake (!!!) and would I take out my money and send the rest to the car dealership from where he was buying the car that I would be using. Seemed easy enough, only now I'm in debt. I also received another check from a different bank in Wisconsin for almost $7,000 which was also a mistake, I'm just glad I didn't deposit that one too. I wonder if it was some sort of money laundering scam. Watch out. Comment   >> Posted: Mar 03 '06 by Vlasta in Bromley, United Kingdom BEWARE OF PERSON RICHARD D. MORGAN - I have recieved first email from this person about his lovely 1year daaughter Duane. She and her husband "are artists and would need me from 7-12 am M-F". This sounded good to me so I have answered. They sent me another email asking about my qualifications and more about me. They said they were out of town so I didn't think it was odd receiving these questions. They said: 'We dont mind sending you a token to wait on us. Our first son Daniel is in the university in Netherlands, studying Chemical Engineering. I just got in contact with him and he said that he needs some money down there for his tuition and here we are on vacation, so i can't be taking care of that now. I will transfer some funds into your account in Barclays bank worth £4,000, I prefers the bank for my transfer, just for safety reasons. So that i can monitor the transfer properly.I would love you to set up an acoount with the bank ASAP and send me all the required info needed for the transfer to be made immediately.The cost of setting up the account will be on me okay. After confirming the transfer, you will take out your token of £350.00 as that will secure you for us till we get back and also to show you how serious we're about employing you and also deduct the amount you spent for setting up the account Afterwhich, you will have to send the balance to Daniel's Guardian in Netherlands via Western Union Money Transfer if you are willing to act accordingly.' I did not like this idea, so wrote him an email to say that I have my income, I dont need any money to wait for them and we can discuss everything when they will be back in UK. A day later I got another email in which he says: 'I want you to know that if i'd another option on how to get the money in question to my son directly we wouldn't have asked you for your assistance and moreover we want to use this medium to develope trust between and our family. If Barclays bank officials ask you what the account is meant for ,Just tell them that you want to make use of it for your personal uses so that that there won't be any delay for them to approve your request ok. I would love you to set up an account with the bank ASAP and send me all the required info needed for the transfer to be made immediately.The cost of setting up the account will be on me okay.'
