I put an ad on Craigslist looking for part time work and was contacted by this person wanting me to post ads on Craigslist for him and he would pay me $550 per week. He first contacted me via text and then I gave my email address for further details as I was suspicious of a scammer from the beginning. He wanted me to post rental ads with his info. Last time I checked, posing as somebody else on the internet is fraud so he is trying to get me or whoever to do his dirty work for him. The ridiculous part of this is that I've gotten 3 different replies from different scam artists trying to phish for my info. Wesley Waziri sent the following email to me when I asked for more details about the job:
Hopefully this helps anybody in my position who is looking for supplemental income to help through hard times. It's frustrating that these folks are out there. Good luck.
