I've known a woman on Yahoo for a few weeks, and didn't think too much of our conversations, until she asked me for some help doing something for her. She asked me to receive cash from *clients* in the U.S. and then send it to her in Nigeria. She told me she was employed by Costa Coffee in the UK, part-time.. She said Costa Coffee didn't have any offices set up in the US and she had no way of getting the money there*Nigeria* without my assistance .She supposedly is from Woodbine, GA, USA, but in Nigeria to be with a friend who came down with Typhoid disease..*lol*.. Asked if I would pick up *CASH*, from where I live and wire it to her in Nigeria. I went to Costa Coffee to ask if she WAS employed with them, but found no way to get in touch with this company. I saw your post and thought I'd reply. I'm not foolish enough to do as she asked, but wonder HOW many people are?..
Thanks, SpiderinFL

I live in a very small town, jobs are scarce.I do work about 32 hrs a week.It's not enough to live on.I'd get a second job but I'm also a caer giver.My husband had a stroke 2 yrs ago. I responded to a costa coffee e-mail.Before I knew it I recieved 4 large moneyorders. They want me to cash them and send them to africa. I really don't know what to do.

To the care giver.....if you deposit the checks, wait until they clear before forwarding any funds. Also, if they are fraudulent, your bank may close your account/s, and hold you liable for the drafts. I got one and deposited it with Wells Fargo, and it was a mess to straighten out, to the point that since I deposited it in an ATM that I was commiting wire fraud, and could be federally prosecuted!!!!

This is wht i received yesterday! I'm getting really annoyed with all these scam emails! I even get emails from people saying they have Cancer and stuff asking me to give all their money to charities and in return i get some of their money!! What a load of rubbish! these people should be ashamed of themselves!!!! This is what i got >>>>

I was approached on SKYPE by a woman claiming to be with the Costa Company. She asked me to process money orders for them. In essence the job offer was to mail out money orders and I would earn about $1.00 per envelope. She sent me a picture of a very attractive woman and started flirting. When I wouldn't bite on the "job offer" she kept on chatting and it was a quite pleasant conversation until she got around to the fact that she was being terminated and needed almost $1000.00 to fly back to the states and the only way I could get her the money was by Western Union. Thats when I deleted her contact. But, her name, or alias, is Rachel Anderson.

Costa Coffee job offer is really a scam. You should apply to the official email and visit the website of CostaCoffee and u will know.

Beware of those emails using live.com, yahoo.co.uk
