I would like to know a little more about this plwase, i contacted him via craigslist and was sent a check today for an unordinarily large sum that I am apprehensive to even attempt to deposit
I got the same EXACT Letter! I called Alan Eustace on my phone @530-540-8977 & my daughter called Christopher Taylor on her phone @ 530-540-8977 and we both spoke to the same person!
I got the same email but he was going by the name Kenneth Wood. The job I thought I was applying for by the title was not a "personal assistant job" for him. I sent him my information and he said he'd let me know in a couple days if I got the job. In the mean time I received a few other emails from other people that were sending the same emails just signed by different names. I realized this was a scam and told them I couldn't help them. I received an email from "Kenneth Wood" saying that he sent the check and I should receive it in a week (not telling me I got the job as he said he would) and to call if I had any questions. He gave the number he gave everyone on here and I tried calling (it showed as a Chico, CA number) but whenever I tried to call it, it wouldn't make the ringing sound but was connected which is weird. I sent an email saying I tried to call and I can't help him. I'm worried about receiving a check and I don't know what to do if/when I get one.
I got this response as well. Sounded to good to be true. thank God for Google
