Ciclon Energy Drink / impostor

Victim Location 46203

Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order

I was contacted by email offering to "maxiize" my income by

$*** per week to display an advertisement on my auto. After verifying my name, address and email, I was asked a series of questions about my driving, license, age health, etc. I was asked to send a picture of my auto to the decal installer. Then a payment was deivered via FedEx courrier in the amount of $***. When I objected to a payment for which I had provided no service and had no written agreement or contract, he said the information I had provided approved me for the payment.

I then asked when and where the advertisement would be applied to my vehicle. He informed me that the installer would arrive at my location for the decal/wrap. I asked if they would call for an appointment time as I am gone a lot. He said they would contact me before they head to my city. Then he asked how soon I could deposit my check. I told him that I would wait until after the decal was applied. He wanted me to deposit it so I could access the funds. I told him I didn’t think I would need the funds until after I had provided the service, and asked what the hurry was. Then he revealed the scamming technique—I was to keep $*** as my first-week salary and send the rest to the installer head office. When I asked for the address for that, he sent the assurance that it was a scam. Instead of providing the address, he said "Have access to the funds within 24 hours to complete the transaction and the address will OCCUR to you. —–Really—– ???????????? The messager identified himself as William Raymond (HRS) Ciclon Energy Drink. I Wrote back, "Shame on you for trying to scam elderly people who cannot afford to lose $*** to dishonest people like you. Don’t contact me again. I have reported this to the ScamPulse.com and the police." I had no further messages from Mr. William Raymond or the Ciclon Energy Drink company.
