Another Scam?

Dear Applicant,

I have received your resume for part-time/full-time dispatcher position with our company.

My name is George Sanders and I'm the HR Manager of Electronics
Shopping Store known as CPA (Computer Parts America LLC). As our 10'000 associates can attest,
working for CPA is the chance to be a part of a company unlike any other in the world. It’s more than a job; it’s a place to develop your skills and build a career with competitive pay and health benefits for you and your family. To work for CPA is to be welcomed into a diverse family, where the individual contributions of every associate are respected and valued. Above all, it’s an opportunity to join a team 10 thousand strong who is helping the world live better every day.

We do this by saving our customers money on the things they need for their families, their homes and their businesses. We do it by reaching out and giving back to the communities where our customers and our associates live. And we do it by working together to solve some of the biggest challenges facing our world today, like the environment, energy and health care.


We require 16 dispatchers. We need persons of maturity age, graduators of a high-school, basic users of PC with Internet connection. All expenses are held by our company and you DON'T need to PAY ANYTHING.

DISPATCHER Monthly Salary $1600 (+$200 - Gas Compensation)
- Handling customer complaints and concerns (through email) in a professional manner.
- Communicating with customers when necessary to advise shipments delay and/or information necessary to process orders (online chat and email support)
- Developing delivery schedules and route plans to facilitate rapid and efficient deliveries to customers.
- Initiate orders for replacements parts and/or for correcting errors (shortages, wrong item shipped, etc.).
- Stay at home (or have someone at home) to receive packages and mail during working hours (9a.m. - 4p.m.) and report on each received package or envelope through the dispatcher control panel or email.
- Receive packages with goods (usually clothes, electronics, jewelry) and envelopes with documents.
- Repack following the instructions (will be sent to you via email once the shipping label is available for download).
- Log into dispacther's control panel and download prepaid shipping label and print it (we do not provide with the printer and do not compensate the ink).
- Attach the shipping label to the parcel and ship the parcel same day you received it.
- Update dispatcher's control panel with tracking number from the printed shipping label once you ship the package.
- Other duties may be assigned to meet business needs.

During your training period you will work only with international orders and customer complaints. After one month of training you will be able to start working in one of our offices or continue working from home with a salary of $1900 (+$200 - Gas Compensation).

Your payment is sent to you by check or can be direct deposited to your bank account once a month.

If you are ready to start please fill in the attached application form and email it back to me to receive the contract and we will start.

We'd be pleased to work with you.

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask.



Is this another scam?
Thanks in advance.

Phishing/identity theft most likely.

Local TV news did a story on this one...a local got busted for unknowingly remailing stolen goods. You might call the cops...

"- Stay at home (or have someone at home) to receive packages and mail during working hours (9a.m. - 4p.m.) and report on each received package or envelope through the dispatcher control panel or email."

LOL! These are hilarious. First never leave home and just juggle packages. Sounds like easy money!



Then this....

"DISPATCHER Monthly Salary $1600 (+$200 - Gas Compensation)"

A paltry salary of less than $20K, but wait a minute, as a bonus I'm getting $200 a month for gas for a job that requires me to not leave my house! Aint life grand! LOL
