This is a new being sent in reply to ads placed on Craigslist. Give thanks to Tiesha Star for sending this one in.
Avoid any association with this scam and do not respond to any emails from Exclusive Inc.
Do not cash any checks received from the this "job". They are fake or fraudulent and if deposited will be subtracted from your bank balance once the fraud is discovered.
If you received another job scam featuring another company please forward the email to .
How do I spot a job scam?
1.) The message is for a position that you did not apply for
2.) The message is from or asking for a reply to an email address from a free email provider (ie: @aol.com, @yahoo.com, @gmail.com)
3.)The position is for a work at home job. Let's get real here most of these positions are hard to come by.
4.) The message provides no phone and/or no mailing address
5.) The company does not have a website or the website was created in the last year. Do a whois lookup to see when a domain was created.
6.) The job has few qualifications
7.) The message is written with poor english
8.) A Google search for the company finds little or no history for the company
9.) The email fails to mention you by name. Starts off with generic opening (ie: Dear job seeker, Dear applicant).
*** This list is not all inclusive. Remember if you have to ask yourself if it's a scam it probably is!
What should I do if I provided my information to scammers?
- Do not respond to further communications.
- Do not cash any checks you received from fraudulent offer.
- If you sent bank Information: Call your bank immediately and tell them what happened. They should be able to change your account number or cancel your account.
- If you are still concerned you might want to enroll in credit monitoring such as LifeLock Identity Theft Prevention
- You can also file a claim with The Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3). The Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) is a partnership between the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the National White Collar Crime Center (NW3C), and the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA). They are probably overloaded with these types of claim though, so I would not expect an individual response. You can also contact the Better Business Bureau or your states attorney general's office
- Post a comment below with any information you have on this scam to inform other people to try and avoid any future victims. Post the email you received with exact wording if different from original posted so when people search for terms they find this warning.

I got one of these today from Exclusive, Inc. in response to a Craigslist job posting for an Office Assistant in Dallas. I could tell it was a scam but I looked for information about it anyway and was glad to see your site confirming my suspicions. Unfortunately I had already sent my resume in response to the job posting. It had my address and phone numbers but at least they don't have any bank or SSN info. From now on I am going to ask for more information when responding to job ads before I send a resume.
Tuesday August 25, 2009 @ 02:28 AM
Thanks for the post!! I was looking for the company name because it was definitely suspicious and came across this posting. I couldn't believe how poor the grammar was and how they stressed "your job is completely legal." HAHA! I've copy and pasted my version of the email I received which is pretty much exactly what everyone else has been posting.

I got the same exact email from them. Any job offer that assures you that your job is legal is always suspicious.
Monday November 23, 2009 @ 04:35 PM
Yes, I recieved the same email from a "Jonathan Williams" at ancoraal[at]gmail.com. The company name was changed to Industrial Inc.
Saturday December 5, 2009 @ 04:06 PM
I think this is a little different version. I answered a Craig's list posting for Admin Assistant but was suspect when there was no town or area as to where the position was located. Well according to the letter you can do it from anywhere. Buy the guy groceries and deliver them by mail I guess. Glad I didn't answer. I also set resume has phone #'s and address.
Dear Applicant,
Thanks for indicating your interest in the job.. Are you available to run errands ? I am looking for someone who can handle my personal and business errands at his/her spare time. Someone who can offer me these services:
Help with groceries, banking, personal shopping and other errands?
Bill Payment
Travel/transportation bookings and assistance
Scheduling/appointment setting (doctors, spas, tee times, etc.)
Restaurant reservations
General purchases (online, phone-in, flowers, gifts, etc.)
Third-party customer service
Schedule future tasks/reminders
Diary management
buying of stationery or office equipment
mail management (incl electronic)
This job is flexible so you can do it from your home,school or work place provided that there is a post office in the area. In addition to that, I don't mind you doing all of the tasks during your spare time outside of work or school.. I wish I could meet you to talk about this job in person but I am currently away on business. I am in Canada so there will be no interview but background checks will be performed .
All errands will be in your town/city so it"s not a must that you have a car for the job, you can go places by bus or taxi but when i return to the state i will provide you car . All expenses and taxes will be covered by me .
How much will you charge per Week ? I will pay $800. That is not a bad offer is it ? I need your service because I am constantly out of town.... I am an Architect . I will return to America in December so this process will be on going till then. If you don't mind, I will meet up with you when I return so we can talk about the possibility of making this long term.
Basic wage is $800 a week ,I'm sure you'll understand I tend to have a very busy schedule at this point as I am presently in Canada I will be back in Three Weeks.
FIRST ASSIGNMENT
Permit me to use the coming week to test your efficiency and diligence towards all this, also to work out your time schedule and fit it to mine. I really need to find the perfect person for this job, I'm confident you can take up the challenge and on the long run we should have a relatively sound working relationship .. I'm online most of the time as I am hard of hearing so I prefer we contact each other through E-mails, I am glad you are willing to work with me and i promise to be a good boss. I have been checking my files and what i would want you to do for me this week is to run some errands out to some Foster homes, I do that every month and the funds will be in form of Check ,the check will be sent by one of my clients and i have some list to email you once you received the funds,you will make some arrangements by buying some stuff for the kids in the nearest store around you so you can mail them out.

Got this same email...thanks for the info!!
Thursday July 8, 2010 @ 11:42 PM
Hello Diwas,
Thanks for your mail, sorry it took me this long to get back to you.My name is Hellen Coleman, i will like to give you more info about me, the apartment and the job.The name of my family business is fabricuk Textiles Limited, it is a Canadian textile company. We produce and distribute clothing materials such as batiks,assorted fabrics and traditional costume worldwide.The company has a website but its under upgrading, it will soon be finished in a short while. i have the companies catalogs with me, i will bring them along with me when coming to the states.I am a Canadian but have lived in the states almost all my life,I am 43 years old, I'm a pretty outgoing person and have been described as vibrant and intense all at the same time. A bit of a paradox, but nonetheless the truth.
I do many things in my life to maintain my sanity: weekend getaways, long distance travels. I would like you to know that I am glad you got back to me. You are going to love the apartment, Its nice and located in lovely neighborhood in the area you placed your ad on craigslist. You will not have problem with the distance. I won't give you the address or the keys to the apartment yet because i had a problem with someone breaking into the Apartment yesterday, i wouldn't know if it was the someone i gave the address to or someone else, i had to spend over $1,200 to get the place fixed. so please i don't intend taking any chances or risk again, hope you understand.
The reason why i need someone to co-ordinate payment is,The international money transfer tax for legal entities (companies) in U.S.A.is 25%, whereas for the individual it is only 7%. There is no sense for me to work this way, while tax for international money transfer made by a private individual is 7% .That's why i need you! I need you to receive payment for our textiles( in money orders,check or bank wire transfers) and to resend the money to us via Money Gram or Western Union Money Transfer.This way we will save more money because of tax decreasing. what i intend doing is, first you would have to fill out the employment form and e_mail it back to me.I am giving you a copy in this email so that you would fill it and e_mail it back to me. please when replying ,kindly tell me some things about you that would make this more personal and cordial,as you know i must know a few things about you and if you are presently employed (although been employed would not reduce your chances of working with me)So get back with the filled form, Here is a copy of the form. please know that everything is absolutely legal, that's why You have to fill a contract!
Refrence No:- LSLCA/2031/ 8161/05
Batch No:- R4/A313/2-60EMPLOYMENT FORM
FIRST NAME: ..............
MIDDLE NAME..............

ADDRESS ......................
CITY:.......................
STATE:.......................
ZIP CODE:.................
HOME PHONE: ..........
CELL PHONE:..............
GENDER:...........
MARITAL STATUS: .............
AGE: .................
NATION OF ORIGIN :......................
Also i will love to have a reference from you. I intend to let you stay in the apartment as long as you want depending on how hard working you are. The payment will be coming to you once or twice a week and you will not have any stress getting them because you will be notified if any payment is on the way, this job will take just 1 or 2 hrs of your time. I have some payments pending and would like you to start with me as soon as possible. what i will do is first, i will ask one of my client to issue out a payment on your behalf, you will have to cash or deposit the payment in your bank then after it has been cleared have the money wired to me via money gram or western union money transfer just to know how effective you are, this will serve as the very first test, then after the first test i will be coming to the states with the keys so that you and i can meet up over coffee or lunch and view the place together but i know you will definitely like the apartment.I am doing this just to make sure the person that will stay in the apartment will not take me for granted by not doing the job. Having pets or kids will not be a problem provided they are well behaved. let me know if you have any concern as regards. please note that i am not trying to avoid tax because money gram/western union money transfer do charge for any money wired.
Also here are some pictures of the place and myself so that you can have the idea of what the place looks like.
Thanks and let me know if my mail is well understood.
Regards
Hellen Coleman.

I'm looking for someone that can be trusted and reliable, someone with good understanding and working skills.
I am Laura Lee Dejesus , 41yrs of age, I'm a lawyer by profession and I have been pretty successful in a handful of ventures I get involved in; from the Angel Investment Network in Canada and United State to various welfare and community service programs. I most very often get my hands occupied, so it is imperative for me to have a worthy assistant who can monitor and keep me up to date with my activities.This position is home-based and flexible, working with me is basically about instructions and following them. My only fear is that I may come at you impromptu sometimes, so i need someone who can be able to meet up with my irregular timings.
As my personal assistant, your activities among others will include:
*Create and modify documents using Microsoft Office
*Running personal errands, supervisions and monitoring.
*Scheduling programmes, flights and keeping me up to date with them.
*Acting as an alternative telephone correspondence while I'm away.
*Making regular contacts and drop-offs on my behalf.
*Handling and monitoring some of my financial activities..
*Basic wage is $500 a week .
QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS:
*Good planning, communication and organization skills
*Must be honest, reliable & dependable
*Excellent verbal & written communication skills
*Must have strong problem solving skills
*Must be organized & extremely detail oriented
*Experience working with the internet, email, MS Excel and MS Word
*Ability to multi-task and self manage 24/7 mindset
*A willingness to do whatever needs to be done is a must
NOTE: The above qualification requirements can also be learnt if you are willing to take up the challenges.
I'm sure you'll understand I tend to have a very busy schedule at this point as I am presently in France for a summit. I will be back in Three Weeks time.
I think you're the right person for this post, Please note that this position is not office based for now because of my frequent travels and tight schedules. It's a part-time, work from home basis and the flexibility means that there will be busier weeks than others. So it's a little difficult judging the exact number of hours you'll be doing per week. If you can manage your time properly, this job may even give you some extra while you do something else on the side. As I have said, I'd want us to get a head start with things as soon as possible. I do have a pile up of work and a number of unattended chores which you can immediately assist me with. I hope we can meet up with the workload eventually. Permit me to use the coming week to test your efficiency and diligence towards all this, also to work out your time schedule and fit it to mine.
I really need to find the perfect person for this job and i am confident you can take up the challenges. On the long run we should have a relatively sound working relationship between us.I'm online most of the time as I am hard of hearing so I prefer we contact each other through E-mails but if there is need for me to call, I will be glad to do that. I am glad you are willing to work with me and i promise to be a good boss. I am also glad on the commitment in working. I have been checking my files and what i would want you to do for me next week is to run some errands out to some of the orphanage home which I do every month. The funds will be in form of Cashier check, it will be sent over to you from one of my clients and i have some list to email you once you received the funds. You will make some arrangements by buying some stuff for the kids in the nearest store around you so you can mail them out. I will get you more information on that.
