  1. Absolutely run away from these. I have had two of these and I just direct them to my website. It's disappointing that it's not a legit order, but if they really want to order, they can use a cc on a rep's website instead of asking you to order and have for them. They'll end up giving you a check that bounces and you'll be left holding the bag.

  2. Nicely put Gwen. It is unfortunate that wahms fall for this...I received a few of these when I was a rep for Discovery Toys..If their really interested (like you said) they will go online and order everything themselves..-Jordan

  3. I am a BeautiControl consultant, and I got this very email yesterday! From a lady named Linda that is doing some kinda modeling work in Spain and needed all this makeup. And at first, I was excited because it was gonna be a HUGE order (over $700)!

    But in the second email from them, they said they didnt want to order from my website, because they dont like to order online. So they wanted to have a client send me a check for an amount that is much greater than the order total, and I am to send them the rest of the money after I take out my portion for the sale. Huh?? Why is a "client" sending me money that I, in turn, send to you? U trust me to do those kind of duties, but you don't wanna order from my website?? I found that extremely suspicious!

    And I'm glad I asked my director about it before I replied back to them, because it would have been a disaster.

  5. These types of scammers roam the internet, We constantly get these types of emails for all of our different business models, as a result we have implemented a confirmation by phone policy for all abnormally large orders.
