Clark has been getting an increasing number of calls about a job scam involving PayPal payments. When you’re looking for a job, you probably check out some of the online sites such as Monster.com. On that site, you will see postings for jobs involving making PayPal transactions. You do PayPal transactions for this company using your own PayPal account. You receive credit card payments from people, take 10 percent off the top for your services and then wire the money out of the country. But the scam is that the people you’re wiring the payments to and the people sending you the money are one in the same. They send you payments on stolen credit cards, pretending to be real customers who are buying products from a company overseas. You act as the intermediary. But when it becomes clear that the credit card was stolen, you are left holding the bag. There are several variations of this, but all of them are scams. Whenever someone comes to you asking for help transitioning money from one place to another, RUN! They are only trying to shift financial responsibility to you, and you will be held responsible.
