Work from home and earn up to $2000 a month!! Sounds great. I needed a job and this sounded great. I had been applying for various jobs online when I received a text saying I was hired for AP Company. I needed to create my online profile in order to start working from home. I had to create a paypal account so that I can get paid. I received a phone call from someone who would also text with information about a package being sent to my home. All I had to do was print out the shipping label which was already paid for and all I had to do was take it to any postal office to be shipped. Easy right? You were also able to log on to the control panel to check for future packages being mailed to you. Once you received the package, you logged on to the control panel and submit the package you had received and they would eventually send you the shipping label that you had to print out yourself. For a few days I received several packages and was even told I was going to get a bonus for sending out the packages right away. Sometimes various packages would arrive to me where special instructions such as combining all products into one box had to be done. I had to buy my own boxes, tape and ink and stickers labels for the shipping labels to be printed on. I lost money. Lost money with these products, time and gas money in going to staples.

Some of the items I had to ship out consisted of a saw, gas fluid, ear phones, iPhone, vitamins, blender

On the 28th day after starting this “job”I would request to get paid. On that day, I was no longer able to log in to my account, and never got paid. I attempted calling the phone numbers AP Company would contact me from but it would just keep ringing or say the number you are tryi to reach is no longer available. That’s when I realized it was a scam.

I was offered a position to work from home after applying to a "Logistics Quality Director" position with AP online. I received a text message with a link to proceed to if still interested in the position. I was directed to a job description page followed by an employee agreement e-sign document. Job offer is salary plus commission bonus for receiving packages at your home from USPS, FedEx, UPS, or other delivered mail sources, reporting delivery, printing out a new shipping label given by the website, and the dropping the package off at the appropriate postal service. Simple process however payout will never happen. Options are given, PayPal, paper check, or Direct deposit, to receive compensation. Contact to main office is not accessible however frequent calls were made from various numbers with people claiming to be from AP company checking up on the "job" The USPS has stated that NO THIRD PARTY PACKAGE JOBS ARE LEGITIMATE. The products are stolen goods or goods purchased with stolen credit cards. Do not give your information to any company claiming similar details. Report any similar job offers immediately. If it looks to good to be true it probably is. The benefit of the doubt was a mistake on my behalf and I want to prevent others from becoming victims as well

The scammer called themselves AP company and their phone number is usually from New York. They emailed me stating I qualified for the Operation Manager. They sent packages that I sent out. It was one . But it didn’t sit right with me when I thought about the fact I don’t know anything about this comapany. I have an example of what it look like. The name on the picture is not anyone i know or ever heard of but that is what pops up on the label. They also have my current address which has me worried.

I have been contacted by email by a company calling themselves AP Company, they claim that they saw my resume on CareerBuilder and found fit perfectly for what they called an "Operations Manager" position in logistics. the job duties where to receive packages they send me, where I review and check these packages, then send them with a different shipping label they will provide me overseas. the pay for the first month which is a probation period is 2650$, and 25$ bonus for every package I sent, then after the probation period I would be paid 3300$ per month in addition to the 25$ bonus for every package sent. for verification they asked me to send my ID as well as a Utility bill to confirm my address, then they asked me to send an empty package as a test to an address they provided me. I did all that, then felt that it was too good to be true, I felt there was something fishy in here, I started researching and found out that this scam is going on for some time now, I sent them an email asking for their tax ID number, and still no reply. they make you sign a contract. I did not receive any packages yet as I found this out before I started receiving those packages and I wanted to report them here. my only concern is that I have provided them with my ID copy, and a utility bill so they know where I live.
