*Update* Seems to be that they’ve went and changed to another name. They are now using Excel Marketing, and I plan on keeping people updated. Read the comments to find out about what people have said!!!
Hi all,
[ad] Just got this nice little letter from Nationwide Marketing. This was sent snail mail, or Postal mail. I came home today to find I got mail from 30 Centurian Drive/Markham, ON L3R 8B9 Canada. I opened it up and find a check from Nationwide Marketing. it’s the old routine, they want you to cash the check send them $3,500 and you keep the rest. The fake check that I know is faked, I call the bank in question. It says you have to do a 2 hour evaluation training and get paid training for 200$ per Hour. The fake check was for $3,990.00 and $3,500 was supposed to be sent through a Wal-mart Money Gram. The so called position was Customer Service Evaluator (Rep ID#: KB0C0608). I am supposed to call 1-905-598-1519 I received this assignment to validate the enclosed payment.Thank goodness I did a little searching and found out this was a scam.
A little more information about this so called fake check is:
Nationwide Marketing
PO BOX 91
Minneapolis, MN 55440
Keybank of UTAH in Price, UT
Check Date 10/06/2008 Vendor ID 6280748 31-0300/1243
Routing number is : 124303007 Bank: KEY BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION
Peter Goldman Is the So called Co-ordinator.
Along with the letter and check there was a Customer Satisfaction Evaluation Tool (CSET), I’m assuming this is a way for them to get the important information of the money gram. We are supposed to fax that after the completion of the assignment.
I did posted this to get the word about this scam. I encourage all of you leave comments about this and warn people of all the variety of this scam. Thank goodness I did research or I could of been a victim too, thanks Google!!!
There was another form of this starting up and I wanted to let people know:
Well, guess what . . . I just got a “Customer Service Evaluator” letter, check and survey sheet in my mail! The post mark is from Canada, and the check is from The State Bank of Faribault, Minnesota and the survey company letterhead says that they are located in New York. The phone number I am supposed to call is 1-416-831-1673 to let them know that I have gotten the check. Then I keep $100 and wire the rest back using Money Gram.
I did a google search on the name of the company, and they have a scam alert on their site telling people that the letters that they are getting in the mail are NOT from them.

They should really check WHO they are sending these letters and checks to before they drop them in the mail![From Shawn Mosch]
This came from the scam victims site and wanted to inform people of this scam too!
