Hello, daisymay86,

welcome on Scamsurvivors. Do you have details about this one? If you do, can you post them, please?
Help yourself by helping others - report your scammer here.
Google can be your best friend;use it if you have doubts about someone met online. If someone met online only asks for money, no matter what reason, it´s 100% scam.

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 world wide. How would you like to make money by simply driving your car or banner wrapped for MONSTER ENERGY DRINK(K)

How it works?
Here's the basic premise of the "paid to drive" concept: MONSTER ENERGY DRINK(K) seeks people -- regular citizens, professional drivers to go about their normal routine as they usually do, only with a big advert for "Monster Energy Drink®" plastered on your car. The ads are typically vinyl decals, also known as "auto wraps,"that almost seem to be painted on the vehicle, and which will cover any portion of your car's exterior surface.

Don't Have a Car?
If you don't have a car, you can also participate if you have a bike.

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 remove by our representative once the contract expire. We will be responsible for installation and removal of the wrap.

You will be compensated with $300.00 per week which is essentially a "rental"payment for letting our company use the space no fee is required from you. MONSTER ENERGY DRINK(K) shall provide experts that would handle the advert placing on your car. You will receive an up front payment of $300.00 inform of check via courier service for accepting to carry this advert on your car.

Welcome to SS. :D Thanks for your post.
I removed your email address from your post, Arielyn211. It's not a good idea to post any of your real life details here on this forum. The origination of the email is above. It's never a good idea to play with scammers using your real life details. Do not forget, these guys are criminals.
Batting them around can warn them that you know that they are scammers or educate them, making them change details and take their victims with them. This also would make your post here worthless for other victims to find before getting scammed. I highly suggest that you do not do this, please.

Feel free to post other scammers you run across in our Scam emails section or other appropriate forums here. Every little bit helps. :)

I thought this sounded a little too good to be true so I did some looking around and found this site. Here's a new name to add to those already listed.

X-Originating-IP: [70.61.236.146]
Date: Fri, 28 Dec 2012 05:53:46 -0500

Subject: Re: CareerBuilder Application ! Monster Energy Drinks Car Wrap Ad Campaign
From: Nicholas Gravino <recruit3@monster-energy-drinks.com>

Thank you for your prompt response and your willingness to work with us, to
this effect you are advised to check your email frequently to get updates
as to know when payment will arrive along with Graphic Artist's address.
Below are instructions which need to be adhered to:

Payment will be mailed to you. This will include the cost of service you
are rendering and the remainder will cover the cost of the decal wrapping
on your car. The remainder of the money would be transferred to the graphic
artist who will be wrapping the decal on your car.

The remainder of the money will be transferred to the graphic artist at any
transfer location within your proximity. Details of the graphic artist will
be sent to you in a subsequent email. After the ad runs on your car for two
weeks, you have the option to extend displaying the ad on your car for
another two weeks. This is not mandatory, but optional, so if you choose
not to want the decal on your car anymore, we will arrange for it to be
removed and you will not be responsible for paying for its removal, as we
will be covering the cost of that.

In addition to the a fore mentioned, there will be no sort of damage done
to your car after the decal has been removed. These people are
professionals and do know how to go about it neatly and leaving no dent on
your car. Your car will be just as it were before the wrap.

Also, we need you to provide some basic information about your car:


A. Type of Car and Color :

B. Model/Year :

C. Present Condition and the Mileage:

If the terms of this job are okay with you, do acknowledge this email, so
we may proceed with the necessary arrangements. Thank you for your time.

I..........................................................................=
............Confirm
to have received this email and understand the content therein.

All other necessary information/details will be sent upon receipt of your
reply.


Many Thanks,

Thanks for your post, and thanks for joining, Nameramac. :)
Yes, this is 100% scam you posted here and I'm sure it will warn many potential victims.

Do you have the Reply to: email address? The "From:" is dead, and the "Reply to:" is most important.
It looks like it will be a gmail address, from the message ID number.

Sorry. I should have added that information before. This is the e-mail I just got like 5 minutes ago.

Congratulations, I am happy to inform you that you have successfully been entered into the program. An expert, who will meet you has been allocated to install the decals on your car. You will therefore receive your payment alongside the money that will be paid to the national car detailer(expert) in the mail. So when you get the payment, you will take out your first week pay of $400 and give the rest to the detailer. This is to afford mutual relationship between you and the detailer. A check of $2,250 would be mailed to you to cover your money and the detailer's money.
In view of this, please confirm the following details;
How long do you intend to carry the advertisement on your car? One(1) month, two(2) months or three(3) months?
Do you use your car everyday?
Also reconfirm your name and address as it should be on the check, where your payment should be mailed.
You are to be checking your email daily for updates and will your check will arrive in the mail.
Regards.

It was the Kelvin.McBright@gmail.com address. I don't know where to find the IP address. I originally received a text to email him.

Should I e-mail him back and tell him I'm not interested? Or, just ignore it. Will I actually get a check? will it just be a bogus one?

So weird.
