Look out...they have moved on to Xyience energy drink from a man named Arnold Yu. I got almost the exact same email that the previous users have posted. Promised me 500 per week lol. Currently I am using an xbox360 for internet and I lack the ability to copy and paste but I will go to the library tommarrow and copy the entire email for your viewing pleasure. Just wanted to share the info ASAP as your site helped me determine this was indeed a scam. Thanks!

daviddj,

do not cash the check. The scammer use one fake check. You will lose not just the amount from the check, but also the money you sent through Western Union. Best thing to do is to contact your bank and to let them know about the scam.

Can you, please, try to post the details about the scammer here? The email address the scammer used, the content of the email about the money? One header from the email received (http://whatismyipaddress.com/trace-email) could be great. Any info may save someone.

Update on previous post.

Email sent from [elequent@hotmail.com]



Hello,

Wrap advertising is the marketing practice of completely or partially covering (wrapping) a vehicle in an advertisement or livery, thus turning it into a mobile billboard. This can be achieved by simply painting the vehicle surface, but it is becoming more common today to use large vinyl sheets as decals. These can be removed with relative ease, making it much less expensive to change from one advertisement to another. Vehicles with large, flat surfaces, such as buses and light-rail carriages, are fairly easy to work with, though smaller cars with curved surfaces can also be wrapped in this manner. Wrap advertising is available to anybody irrespective of the vehicle you drive.

We are currently seeking to employ individuals living in USA. Who will like to make money by simply driving your car or banner wrapped for Xyience Xenergy Energy Drink®.

Don't Have a Car?

What does the company get out of this type of ad strategy?
Lots of exposure and awareness. The auto wraps tend to be colorful eye-catching and attract lots of attention. Plus, it's a form of advertising with a captive audience,meaning people who are stuck in traffic can't avoid seeing the wrapped car alongside them. This program will last for 3 months and the minimum you can participate is a month.

What is the Contract Duration?
Once the wrap has been installed, minimum term is 2 weeks and maximum is 12 weeks.

Would the wrap/decal damage the paint of my car?
The decal doesn't damage the paint of car and will be removed by our representative once the contract expire. We will be responsible for installation and removal of the wrap.

Does it cover the whole car?
No, the decal it only install in the car trunk and doors.


You will be compensated with $500.00 per week which is essentially a "rental"payment for letting our company use the space no fee is required from you. Xyience Xenergy Energy Drink® shall provide experts that would handle the advert placing on your car. You will receive an upfront payment of $500.00 inform of check via courier service for accepting to carry this advert on your car.

APT #:
City,State,Zip Code:
Cell Phone Number:
