maxpacltd.net is up and is a typical Bimbom-Bump site. http://maxpacltd.net/job/finance/faq explains the duties of the money laundering job.

ukmax-pac-ltd.com is also up. See http://ukmax-pac-ltd.com/job/finance . Both sites talk about Western Union/MoneyGram fees. No legitimate job involves forwarding money by WU or MG.

I was offered a job by a man called jason gibbons via a gmail account after registering my cv with an unrelated job agency. His terrible grammar alerted me to the possibility that it was a scam.

I looked at their website http://www.ukmax-pac-ltd.com/job/finance2?lang=uk and read the small print and you could easily end up Paying these people:

"Should an Agent fail to fulfill his/her assignment to transfer money on time, this will entail certain losses for our company and subsequently reflect on the revenue we receive. Under these circumstances we will bill the Agent with the amount, which will be enough to cover the company's damage. This compensation might amount up to 70% of the transfer amount. However, we understand that certain circumstances might prevent Agent from sending money in time."
and
"We hardly ever experience any problems while working with the banks. If asked about the funds, simply let them know that you are completing a job"
and
"The reason you use your own account for this job is because the position is considered to be an Independent Contractor position, which requires Financial Support Agents to use their own account during their probationary period."
as if!!


Also I looked on the companies house website and this was the result of my search:

Scammers often make sites that pretend to be existing legitimate companies. We've spent many months reporting the sites of this and other gangs of scammers and know one at sight or by seeing its whois record. These sites are scam sites, even if they use the same name as a real company.

JUST BEWARE !!

MAX PAC LTD [www.ukmax-pac-ltd.com or similar sites variations are criminal rogues]

They recruit online FINANCIAL SUPPORT AGENTS who provide their personal bank accounts details to them.

They then hack other people's bank accounts and transfer the money into the FSA's accounts.

These FSAgents then have to cash the money.
They keep 8-10% of the funds and send the balance via Western Union or Moneygram to another person[the hacker's private recipient].

The FSA becomes an accessory unwittingly to this crime.

Their directors use names ofJason Gibbons and Grace Poole.
So don't be fooled by these crooks!!

They have been reported to FRAUD SQUAD -UK.
