Scam targeting Avon Representatives

Unread postby HillBilly » Thu Nov 28, 2013 6:38 am

This is a scam abusing stolen credit card information. Or a fake check.
The scammer contacts Avon Reps (among other companies) and places a large order:
Good Day Samantha.

My name is Marcus manager of Marcus&Sons Group Of Companies.I want to buy some Avon Fragrances for my workers and partners as a gifts for their dedication for working hard and will like to know if you could assist me do this as i am a busy person.

These are the fragrances i will like to purchase.

His Story Eau De Toilette Spray :-50 bottles

U by Ungaro for Him Eau de Toilette Spray :-50 bottles

Iron man® Eau DE Toilette Spray :-50 bottles.

I will appreciate it if you can give me the total cost for the fragrances i want to purchase,i will do
the payment in full with my secure credit card,Kindly get back to on this ASAP.Hope to read your mail soon.


Marcus

The scammer then pays with a stolen credit card / fake check.
The goods are shipped to a post office box (or similar) where the scammer instructs a shipping company (DHL,UPS etc) to pick up the goods and send to Nigeria ( or other places for illicit gains ).

Got my first "scam" email
I'm an Avon Representative in Upstate NY. I received the below email from a "Susan Smith" who is also a "retail buyer and is a deaf single mother of two kids." The tip off for me, was when "she" stated that she "didn't want to deal with the company" and I would "receive the funds as a cashiers check or money order". Something just was not right about this; and the bells were ringing loudly. I remembered the email my District Manager had sent about the scams and was very glad that I had kept the information on hand. I will be forwarding my "large order" to Avon so they can monitor this issue.

I will like to know the total cost plus the necessary tax I am to pay on this items I listed and also the name and address you want the payment sent to and also your phone number to reach you on.

Kelly Smith.


Hey Lacey, there is a big mistake in the payment mail to you...... I am emailing you to let you know that your payment has been sent out and would arrive via courier service within the next 96hrs, I also want you to know that the amount which was sent to you by the sponsor is more than your asking price because they mistakenly sent our traveling fees along with the money for our expenses, so I would also let you know the name and address which you would remit the rest of the funds to, I hope I can trust you with the rest of the funds for our flight ticket because people can be really funny nowadays .


Please let me know as soon as you get this email...


Thanks and God bless for your understanding.
Kelly Smith.


THESE PEOPLE SENT ME 2 DIFFERENT EMAILS...THE EMAIL ADDRESSES HAD A DIFFERENT NUMBER AT THE END...THEY BOTH STATED TO SAME THING...THEN I HEAR TODAY THAT ON FOX NEWS THEY SAID PEOPLE ARE ORDERING THINGS FROM COMAPNIES AND PAYING THEM WAY TO MUCH...WHEN YOU CASH THE CHECK IT WILL BOUNCE AND YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY ALL THAT MONEY BACK. I ASKED FOR A TRACKING NUMBER AND A PHONE NUMBER AND I NEVER GOT A REPLY!!!!!!!!!

Not a Legitimate Request
To anyone who has received a letter from one Laurie McGinnis, don't fall for it.
This is someone trying to rip you off. I am an AVON agent and this is not the first time I received an email of this kind. I replied by saying if you are in Wisconsin I would think that AVON would have given you contact information for a Representative in your area. Why are you contacting me and I am in New York. I also let this person know that I do not do business the way that they were asking. I replied that if you wish to place an order do it through my website. Recently I have been getting these types of emails also most on a daily basis. There has to be a way to put a stop to this and apprehend the individuals behind these scams.

Avon Fraud
I'm a legitimate Avon representative. I've received several spam requests. They are very easy to spot (poor grammar, requests for products out of the current campaign), not to mention I'm mistrusting of anyone who doesn't tell me who they are or how they know me or got my information.

I immediately reply to them that they can order directly online from my site or send me the information. I also tell them the information I need to place the order. I also tell them I need 50% payment up front, or as I did with one person after they said they would pay me after I send them the products, told them the process is that I deliver directly to them and they pay upon receipt.

After giving these idiots that information I generally do not hear from them again.

Avon scam
Hi, I am an Avon representative who received the nearly identical e-mails from someone wanting to buy Avon Products.

"Hello ,
Thanks for your response and I really appreciate it , My name is susan joseph, I am a retail buyer .... I was introduced to Avon Some Months ago and I got your sales and contact from Avon and I would like to purchase this Items from you on a dealership and not with the company cos I am new on computer and I don't operate with credit card, that is why I am dealing directly with you and I will appreciate if I can order this Product through you once you have the funds from me for the product .. All the product I want to order from you is my first order this year .. I will want you to get back to me with the total cost of the listed item and your name and address where I can send the payment to:

5 ANEW REJUVENATE Skin Revitalizing System
5 ADVANCE TECHNIQUES Frizz Control Lotus Shield Anti-Frizz Treatment
5 ANEW ULTIMATE Age Defying System

kindly let me know if there is any discount you want to give me on my first order, and also you don't need to worry about the shipping and the pick up of the order from your location that will be handled through my Shipper after you have received the funds for the order....

Thanks a lot
God Bless you.
susan"

Subsequent e-mails from Susan Joseph had instructions to send the overpayment via Western Union to a person in GA. For $960 worth of Avon, she sent a check for $2200. Supposedly this person in GA was going to pick up the Avon products from my house in Michigan once I sent the money. The check I received was from Louisiana in the name of a construction company.

I wish I'd caught on sooner than I did! Fortunately I never sent any money to anyone and have notified the company in Louisiana and their bank is on fraud alert.

Susan Joseph has been getting pushy about me getting back with her with the Western Union information. I got this from her yesterday:

"Hello Sis,
Okay i understand you,just make sure you are woman of your word....i will e waiting for the western union information's on Monday Morning before noon...

Happy Thanksgiving
Susan"

It wasn't until I did some searching and found the same e-mails on here that I really caught on that I was being scammed.
Thank you all for reporting your experiences!

Hi folks,

At a guess, the perfumes/cosmetics etc will be put in boxes with handbags, chocolates, teddy bears etc etc etc and sent to romance scam victims. The purpose is twofold:

1. To woo the victim, obviously (what woman doesn't like getting gifts from a lover?) Victim is also more likely to pay up after being sent a whole load of stuff.
2. To use the victim as a fence for the stolen goods. Also possibly to test logistics processes to see how much stolen stuff gets through any particular channel. The scammers would them exploit the weakest one.

FRAUDERS BEWARE!!!!
I am a new AVON representative, only in my second campaign and still trying to figure things out. Today I got a message on my AVON site from an Emmanuel Morrison that simply said "I want products" so I told them what that needed to do to order. And this is the email I got from "Emmanuel":

Hello,
How are you doing today?
I hope all is well with you,Please This is Emmanuel Morrison Representative's office of WFWO: I want to order 60 bottles of Haiku Eau de Parfum Spray (102-972) and 60 Bottles of Far Away Dreams Eau de Parfum Spray ( 893-436 ) I am purchase this Product for my Co worker's and friends as invitation Gift to my Up coming wedding ceremony. I am on a trip now to Virginia for the mean time. I will like you to handle the order for me as your personal order for me, I got your info from meet mark searching for reps and I decided to choose you out of them as my rep. Please get back to me asap with the grand total so I can provide you with my credit card information for you to run for the approval code and as soon as you receive my Order at you end, I will make the shipping arrangement with USPS Shipping Label myself...Hope you can help me out with this. Looking forward to hear from you soon thanks.

Emmanuel.


I was so confused and trying to construct an email back on how I can not do what this person wants but trying to help them figure out how they can do it. I decided to use google and found this website. I can't tell you how ****ed of I am!!!!




Infidel

Re :
These scammers have done this with other folks too ,Craiglist ect ....I myself was selling a Item ,and they were willing to pay extra Ca$h for the Item with a Fake Postal Money Order . They Have Have Money Orders from Western Union ,Money Gram also . So Be alert Cause they will even do it for Apt rentals ,Car sales or what ever they can get their hands on .



Shari49

Avon scam
What is scary to me is the check I received for $2200 was real! The bank put a stop payment on it, but it makes me wonder if there was an inside job either with the bank or the construction company in Louisiana. I don't understand how they get away with this. If I had done what I was asked by these scammers, I would have been out $2200 of my own money! Like I can afford that.
Surely there is a way to stop these people.

Right after this group of e-mails from Susan Joseph, I got another one from someone else claiming to be in Wisconsin. I just ignored that one. I'm smarter now. :-)

Same scam - in my 3rd campaign
I received an almost identical email today in response to my reply to their "contact me" request. The items he "ordered" were different, but otherwise the email was identical!
It's definitely frustrating as a new Rep. (I'm in my 3rd campaign) to have to deal with this when you are trying to learn everything else. If this is as common as it seems to be from all of the posts here, can't AVON do anything to prevent this kind of thing (like have a security measure like this site does)?

Avon Rep Scam
I am a new Avon Rep and received an email through my Avon website asking to order products. The email was from a Yahoo account in Canada, so I wrote the person (Estella Jurkovich) and told them they would need to order from their Rep in Canada. Within an hour, I received this email in reply:

"Thank you for your response, I'm the manager of a freelance model group from Milwaukee, WI. But we are coming down to your area for a photo shoot and I would need you to get these items for me:

BATH & BODY:
Foot Works Lavender Clay Mask ........................................(2) 074872
Foot Works Lavender Comfort Foot Soak ..........................(1) 305777

SKIN CARE:
ANEW CLINICAL Instant Face Lift ....................................(1) 607755
ANEW CLINICAL Expression Line Filler ...........................(1) 039636

FRAGRANCE:
Timeless Cologne Spray .....................................................(1) 011626
BOND GIRL 007™ FOREVER ..............................................(2) 215651

MAKE UP:
Super shock Mascara (brown color) .................................(2) 455509
Precision Glimmer Powder Eyeshadow(Goldish-DUNE)..(2) 242468

I will like to know the total cost plus the necessary tax I am to pay on this items I listed and also the name and address you want the payment sent to and also your phone number to reach you on. After you send me this information I would instruct my sponsors to send you the payment which would be in form of money orders or certified check which you can cash instantly at your bank. Please get back to me as soon as possible so I can continue with the purchase, We would be there soon so we would pick up the items in person but I want you to have the funds in advance, so send me the quotations and details needed to send you payment.

Thanks and God bless.
Estella"

The email was from estellajurkovich72@yahoo.ca. I looked up this person's name online and the only "hit" was a 57-year old woman in Joliet, Illinois (whose home address and home phone number I was also able to get). The 1st thing I did was block her email. There are websites you can forward these emails to and they will try to track the sender. They caution that these people are criminals and to be careful not to reply to them.

I think the more of us who post these emails on here, the more we are helping others from identity theft and more. Thank you to all of you for your efforts!

Texas Avon email scam
Here's the email I got. I'm a new Avon rep so this really angered me. So confusing on your first couple of campaigns.

Hello active rep..how are you doing and thanks for your willingness to being my rep?I could have contacted you for help before now but couldn't because i just had a new baby and somehow away on my desk...I found out your page on avon and and can't wait to get some wonderful products as gift for my family members..I have patronized marykay in the time past and it's my pleasure trying avon this time around. These are the unique items i will love you to order for me and i will be making the payment with /MONEY ORDER/CERTIFIED CHECK as i stopped operating my credit card currently due to some reasons.

3 pieces of Illuminating Crystals Digital Watch(black)

Thanks my regards to your entire family over there..Below is my shipping address:

Then the second email I received was:

Hello ,sorry i could not get back to you before now.My baby has not not been feeling fine and i had to keep taking him for medical check up..I could not not even sleep last night because i was afraid of his state of health .I have a goodnews for you regarding the payment.I had just read from my debtor that the check has been issued out to you and you will be receiving it via fedex this morning..the tracking # (796661327947).. But there is a big problem,cos she was informing me that she sent out the whole amount she was owing me instead of her to just send you the amount for the items i am purchasing from you.i was so mad at her when i heard this because i don't know if my money will be safe with you when you got it.I wanted her to send the remaining of the funds to my Upholstery dealer on ebay to balance her up i am afraid i may get screwed up if you are not honest...I just don't know what to do cos i am totally confused,pls ..may i know if my money will be safe with you when you get it and will i be able to get the remaining of my money after you might have deducted your amount for the items?Pls here is what you are to do when you got the check .You should deduct your amount for the items i ordered from you and deduct an extra $20 for any stress i might cause you.And kindly proceed down to any western union money transfer outlet to have my remaining funds sent out to my Upholstery dealer asap today so my work will not be delayed..Here is the wiring information below to send the left over.

Name: Xiomara Santana
City: Houston
State: Texas
Zip code: 77090

I will check my email later to read from you and get the western union transfer details from you because i will have to take my baby out again for medical check up first thing in the morning.And kindly have my orders processed in a timely manner as i can't wait to get them...Thanks and God bless.


Yeah, that tracking number was a package going to MA, not TX. HAHAHA idiots, they thought I wouldn't check.

I love Google....
I got an e-mail from someone named "Estella Jurkovich", so I replied, but I didn't order anything for her. I Googled her name first, because her story didn't add up. Then, I found the exact same e-mail she sent to me on this forum. I am glad I went with my gut, and researched this person. I wasn't actually defrauded, because I never ordered anything for her. However, who do I report this e-mail to? I would like to see this person brought to justice for trying to defraud people like this. Thank you!

SCAM from Estella Jurkovich
I am also a new rep from Avon and have nearly fallen into the scam of Estella Jurkovich. Here is the exact same email that I also received:

Idiotically, I replied with the price needed for the items she wanted. She then replied back saying she needed an address and name for the check to be made out to. After idiotically giving out the information, a few days later, I received a check written out in my name for $2000 (when the order was only $120). This is when i realized it was fishy. Estella sent me an email that day saying that her "sponsors" made a mistake and included the Avon money with the plane ticket money they'd be needing for their modeling trip. She then DEMANDED that i cash the check and immediately send her the remaining money VIA cashier's check back to her! I am extremely angry, and disappointed that a person would do this. And now am terrified because she has my address! I WILL be taking this to the police.

Thank you and enjoy your day.

I emailed my Upline lady and asked her if she had ever heard of this happening and what her thoughts were on it and she said that it was in fact a scam and i'm so glad I emailed her about it. I created a fake invoice and went ahead and emailed it back to the "lynn adams" and told her I just needed her to call me on my cell phone to verify her order and still no call. I will not be ordering her products and if I do recieve a check I will probably take it to my local authorities. At first I was excited because it was close to a $200 order. But better safe than sorry. If she isn't willing to place a simple phone call then she isn't worth my time.

Got one too!
I got an email similar to many I have read. This one from a Sandra Bryan and she used the Stewart Talent Company in Chicago as her background. Even gave the address (But curiously no phone number.) I googled it and her name. I found a 41 year old in illinois and a 60 something year old also in illinois that was a retired teacher! No Sandra Bryan connected to Stewart Talent. I checked the Stewart Talent agency website not only for Chicago but for the other two cities and found no mention of a Sandra Bryan. I checked facebook, etc. NADA for anyone even friended to Stewart's FB page with that name. Granted it was a smaller order so probably a test run but am so glad I had the flags go off before I did anything stupid!

Flags to look for:

1. Professional company but bad grammar, punctuation, capitalization, etc.

2. No campaign # listed.

3. Unusual amounts of products.

4. No specifics on the "Showbiz" such as date or location.

5. Why would a major company suddenly not want to order from a website?

6. For me, I live in a small town in the middle of podunk Nebraska, why the heck would a major east coast company suddenly pick me out of a hat to order from?

7. Also phrases like "Cash Instantly" "Paper Payment" and "No P.O. Boxes"

8. Finally, I checked after receiving this email today and this person had pulled themselves from my customer list. When I initially checked after receiving the email that they were interested in ordering Avon Products, other than an email address there was absolutely no contact information on their form.

Here is the email:

Hello,

I didn't believe it when I saw 1-her unprofessional grammer/punctuation, 2-her saying they no longer make direct orders. I called the district manager (since my upline wasn't available) and she said she had someone call about a month ago about the same situation. She also said she doesn't know how they do it, but they target new reps. Glad I didn't fall for it....

I fell for it...
Received the below email, early last week. I'm never comfortable placing orders over $50, for anyone, including family, because I simply cannot afford to cover the cost if they don't pay. When this woman, April Rowland, said she would mail me a payment and once I cashed the payment, I could order, I thought "okay, sure, seems legit". I received a follow-up email this morning letting me know the payment was on its way but it was for more than the total cost of the products, I thought I would do some research. I'm glad I looked into this and kept it from going any further.

Hello,
Good to hear from you. coming over to your area for a showbiz in one , the Hotels Conference hall around you shortly.We have prefer to order online but for now all purchases in our company are done with paper payment so i would love you to place the order for me.Below are the list of items needed:

Anew Wrinkle Smooth Deep 239-996..................................................(1)

I would need to know the total of all the products i requested for and also the name and address you want the payment sent to and also a phone number i can reach you on.After you send me this information the Manager of our company will mail you a check for the payment,which you can cash instantly at your bank because we need these items, before the date of the event and they will be picked up at your location Upon my Arrival.

April..

Thank you and enjoy your day and how much sales tax to charge? and when is The next order date?

Received the check
I received the "payment" from above "sender". The check was mailed from Arizona, the FedEx label had an Illinois address on it, and the check "came from" Stingray Chevrolet in Plant City, FL. It looks like a real check, but I wont even attempt to cash it, because the address for the bank that Stingray Chevrolet "uses" is spelled incorrectly.

Good Afternoon Frank

I need to inform you that payment for the Avon products would arrive on Thursday, my sponsors just called me today he has sent it already, so be around to receive it Thursday morning. Then i should let you know there is a big mistake on the payment mail to you. I also want you to know that the amount which was sent to you by the sponsor is more than your asking price because they mistakenly sent our traveling fees along with the money for our expenses, so I would also want you to remit the rest of the funds, I hope I can trust you with the rest of the funds for our flight ticket because people can be really funny nowadays, then once you get it proceed to the bank for the cash. So you would have to deduct the money for your Avon items while you send the rest to me via MONEYGRAM OR WESTERN UNION later today, as soon as you send the funds I would be able to provide you with our trip plan and arival time for pick up of the products in person. The funds should be sent at any western union outlet in my PA name.


Below is the name and address you would send the funds to:


Name: Estella Jurkovich
Address: 118 Twin Oaks Drive
City: Joliet
State: IL
Zipcode: 60435


After the transfer get back to me with all the transfer details from Western Union OR MoneyGram, the details needed would be the Money Transfer Control Number (MTCN Usually 10 Digits) if you used western Union but will be (8 digits REFERENCE number) if you used MoneyGram, also I will need to know the total amount sent after deducting transfer charges, Note that the transfer charges should be deducted from the money you are sending and not from your money. The funds are needed urgently so get this done and get back to me as soon as possible. Also advice when my Avon would arrive if not arrived yet.


Thank you and God bless
Juliet

Avon scam
Hi, I just googled avon scams & here you are!
I have received a very similar email from someone calling theirselves Davied Villa. (Google brings up a famous soccer player, lol). I just started selling last week, my first order was from this person...ordered 5 of 6 different items...$300 order.
I suspected scamming & sent the emails to Avon--Avon sent me a blanket letter telling me how to avoid being scammed, but nothing about the one that has been listed here.

I sent the order in to Avon, and am now waiting for her "check" to get here. Once I get the check I will turn it over to someone who deals with internet fraud.

I am looking forward to dissapointing this scammer...but am sure they will have someone fall victim quite soon.

I am now only going to accept orders from people I know, or people I invite to my site.

Hope more people read about these scams-before they get taken.



slrisor1980
I too just had someone scamming me. I'm new to Avon but it seemed like a scam Especially when she said certified check/money order. Plus I thought it was too good to be true that i would have such a big order.

another scam
I am a new avon rep and this is my first campaign (must have thought since I'm new i would be naive enough to fall for this). However if it sounds to good to be true.... it probably is so I googled avon scams and found an almost identical email to the one that I received which I posted below. For being with a "modeling agency" i would expect a different email rather one from gmail! This forum has definitely helped me out thanks for posting!

I just received an identical email for an Avon order from a Mary Peeples. Before responding or ordering any products I googled TLW Modeling & Promotions from Chicago, IL. I could find nothing about the company such as a phone number or address.
I did find this website!

Avon scam
I received the same message from "Sarah Porwoll" today. I can't believe it! Here I thought I was getting a nice order! I'm going to forward it to my District Manager, and delete "Sarah" (I'm sure it is NOT her real name!) from my customer list!

I got the same email too
I received the same email from Sarah Porwoll. When I got it I had some nerves about it, but being new with AVON I thought "Well they are a well known company and I am sure you get orders from alot of unknown people" So I went as far as ordering the products. I still had a bad feeling about it so I googled the name of the modeling agency just to see what it was and that is when I found all this information. Thanks for posting all of this. I reported it to AVON and my district rep. Now I just have to return all the products. I feel stupid!

Avon Order scam
Hello,

I'm a new representative and my upper leaders sent out an email to me at the very start about being careful of fraudulent orders. I just received my first email contact and I replied stating the information that I would need for the order and that I would have them pay online. A reply came back in the same format as the previous ones in this chain, stating she was with Premier Model & Talent in Chicago, IL. She was very professional sounding but as soon as she said that she would have a sponsor pay with a money order or cashier's check it turned on the warning bell. Also, I thought it was strange that this person used one email to initially contact me, but a different email to send this order list. I smelled a skunk. The name of the person contacting me signed it Mary Peeples and used marryppleess01@gmail.com.

I hope this helps others,
Amy

avon scam from fake modeling agency
I am a new Avon representative and recently signrd up as an eRepresentative. I did not realize I had a new online customer inquiry until a few days ago. I replied to the inquiry and got the same email as many of you did requesting products in exchange for a money order. The email came from Sarah Porwoll and address was porwollsarah2@yahoo.com. I thought it was a strange email and the language did not sound like a manager would make a transaction that way so I decided to google the name as I am aware of similar scams out of Africa (I was a victim of a money order scam last year through match.com). Upon googling I found all of this info from you guys. Thank you so much for the warning! I hope we can somehow stop these guys by making this well know. I spread the word wherever I go about the money scams from foreign countries particularly Nigeria!

Way too close
I received a similar order. The name given was "Kimberly" and the email address was

grace_smith7777@yahoo.com.

I gave my address and phone number, unfortunately. However I was weary from the beginning. Same reasons--coming from out of town, bad grammar, unusual order--all together shady. I received the check, which happens to be drawn on the bank where i have my account. I talked with the branch manager, and the checking account was a real account...from the George Washington University School of Law none the less!! Of course, we didn't cash the check, but she told me I would have been charged the $1950.00 once the check was returned. I took it to the police, who basically told me forget about it and there's nothing they can do. In fact, they said no crime had been committed, and only after I'd cashed the check would there have been a crime. THEY SAID THE CRIME WOULD BE THAT I WAS OUT $1950!!!
With the scammer still texting me, asking if I had the money, and having already given me the name and address of whom to Western Union it to, I contacted the FBI (in Missouri where said Western Union is), hoping they could set him up. Apparently, that's not how it works. Instead I was instructed to fill out the IC3, and they would have to conduct an investigation.
It is 2 days later, and scammer is still texting me to find out where their money is. BTW, email to text--no phone number given, and calls come from private number.
the Western Union contact info is

Kenneth Kuntz
8601 s.Broadway
St. Louis, MO

Be Careful!!

Another reporting option
I've received several of these since creating a web page as an Erep. Haven't been victimized by any of the attempts though. The initial request for contact has always had the comment "I want to order products", which immediately made me suspicious. If an individual found the web page and created a user name to send a "contact me" request, then they've already seen how the "store" works.

I, too, consulted with an Avon leader the first time this happened. Even researched a home address one gave when they wrote back with their "order". The address was a municipal parking garage. Not all use authentic businesses when they attempt to scam.

So far, I've received emails from
Paul Amanda - pualamanda44@yahoo.com
Jessica Armstrong - armstrong.jessica48@yahoo.com
Stanley webber - smweembam4real@yahoo.com
Renee Walker - reneewalker707@yahoo.com
Lynn Wood - lynnwood51@yahoo.com

You'll note that the items to be ordered are "high end" on Avon's price list. That was another red flag, aside from being asked for all my personal information (address, phone, etc.) while being promised payment in advance.

Microsoft's web site has good information on internet security as well. I'm now using this:

Attach the suspicious email message to a new email message and forward it to
reportphishing@antiphishing.org

Avon e mail scams breakdown from May 2010 to Jun 2011
Hello, I have lifted out the text from the word document I posted previously. Apologies I didn't realise that you have to be registered to see any attachments posted. There are many unregistered quests that visit this site.
