I applied for a Customer Service Position on CareerBuilders.com with a company called TNT Express (which it appears is an actual company) but today's mail brought a Letter from Canada stating the company's name is TNT Express Research. The head office is listed as 165 KIng St W. Toronto, ON M5H1J9. The letter references a company called "Research4cash". I xecided to look online and came to this website. It's scary how real this looks and I am sure others will receive this and cash the check. I am taking to my bank tomorrow after a stop at the Police Station. So many people are searching for wotk, its a shame low down creeps are trying to scam them. Thanks for the help….. NOT GOING TO BE A VICTIM!!!;

Hello!!
Wow!! Am I ever thankful that I found this site!! I just opened a letter from “Sunlife Resource Group” stating that they had found my resume online, and that I fit their profile. They also said that they are running a research program called “Research4cash”, it’s research program designed by Sunlife to seek real people opinions about various products or services. Anyways, there was a $2500 cheque… and I was of course, supposed to deposit it into my account and go from there. It looked so sketchy, and I googled immediately! When I found this site, I knew that my instincts were right. Thank you for confirming that this is indeed a horrible scam!!

Interesting enough, my mom just received a similar letter. $3938.96 was the amount. I work for one of the large local banks and gave me the check and letter attached and asked me to research it for her. Of course the first website I come to is this one. Thank God for this and other websites. I know I will sleep well tonight knowing my mother did not cash this check risking her savings to these crooks! I have seen similar letters and I know immediately if it is a scam…but the elderly cant always tell..its good some of them have people to turn to….these crooks ought to be shame, shame, shame….they will get theirs in the end….
