I am a collector of scam emails and pubsliedh them here.. Do you want to be part of this cause, leave us message.
I received this same email and tried to research this scam. It seems that this "billpay company" is trying to use the name of a legitimate company based in NY with a similar name though spelled slightly different. I contacted the actual company Bill Pay Corp. (BillPayCo.com) and they stated that they do not send out job postings via gmail nor do they operate any kind of check cashing company. They stated that they have nothing to do with these phishing emails. After reviewing the real company website, Bill Pay Corp. is a payment processing site that allows it's users to pay their rent, car leases, loans etc...with their credit card. It actually seems like a pretty good service; collect credit card rewards for paying my your normal monthly bills. FYI, they had some good information for those who are having financial troubles as well.
ReplyDeleteThe point here is that the billpay corp email being sent out from a gmail account is a complete scam. The actions described in their email would be considered money laundering. Stay away from contacting them.
