I got this aver communicating via email with a Silvester Lopez
Good Morning Beth,

Sorry for delay in getting back to you,I need to inform you that the payment for the products would be delivered to you TODAY June 20th via USPS ( UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE ) My boss gave me this tracking number 9405501699320004635546, so that you can monitor it's delivery status,please proceed to the bank for cash immediately or you deposit into your account for 24hours clearance. Also, I will like to notify you that my boss mistakenly added our travel expenses to the funds sent to you. I was just informed about this development some minutes ago, all i need now is your complete trust to send back the balance. So all you have to do is deduct the money for the Avon items from the funds and get the rest sent to my PA(Personal Assistant) via WESTERN UNION MONEY TRANSFER IN MINUTE after you have cashed the check at your bank.

We are presently in Apopka, FL. for a business conference as soon as you send the funds, I would be able to provide you with our trip plan and the day i will come to pick my Avon items in person.The event am coming for in your area is scheduled for next two weeks and i need to get down there before then so that i can get prepared and also get my Avon products from you before then, so please make haste and get back to me on this.

As soon as this is done you have to deduct the pay for the Avon items.The left over money will have to be sent Via WESTERN UNION MONEY TRANSFER ---MONEY IN MINUTES OPTION to my PA as soon as possible so that our flight tickets can be booked on time... You will be sending the left over funds to the below information:

========================================

FULL NAME : JESSICA JUAREZ

RECEIVERS ADDRESS: 1542 Rock Springs Rd

CITY: APOPKA
STATE: FL
ZIP CODE: 32703

========================================

After the transfer get back to me with all the transfer details from Western union, the details needed would be the

1) Senders name and address used.

2) Amount sent after deducting your pay and the transfer charges.
PLEASE ONCE AGAIN MAKE SURE YOU USE THE MONEY IN MINUTES OPTION.

3) MTCN number ( this is the 10 digit number on the receipt)

Note that the transfer charges should be deducted from the money you are sending to my PA and not from your Avon money. The funds are needed urgently, so get this done and get back to me as soon as possible today. Also advice when my Avon would arrive if not arrived yet.

Thank you and God bless you,
Silvester Lopez

Suspicious you think!? The previous emails from him are similar to what the other posters had.

Update:
This came after I replied:

"You are to deduct the sending fee from the fund you are to wire to my assistant..

I just found you email…… I really don’t have the resources to send anything back with the extra amount. I can send your check back and I can re-quote you for the next campaign. That would work better for me.

AngelaMRAVONREP
I have recently been the target of an email scam (because I am a new rep?)
The email is below; however, the email address this individual used (lorifred08@yahoo.com) was a dead give away. First, if this were truly a legitimate company then the supposed "Manager" should and would have a company email address and not an email address anyone else could easily get or create. Secondly, there is no reason at all why these people could not order from our websites because they would have a company credit card and they would receive receipts for their orders.
I believe I was targeted because I am a new rep with a new Avon website--I am certain they have targeted many before me and will target many after me. Just remember, if the email address is not one representative of a business entity then you should not put any stock into any order the individual is trying to place with you especially when they want to pay with a check, money or or cashier's check--even credit cards are scary because they could be stolen.
Good luck with your Avon business and do not let anyone place you in a position which could affect you personally, legally and financially.

Sincerely,

Avon Rep in MO

Please see the email I received below, if you compare it to what others have received you will notice how alike they all truly are.

Haha yea I got this today from Lynn Hale.. It's quite humorous because she introduces herself twice in this message and says she is coming to my area two different months along with not being able to spell "shiping" correctly or not knowing when to use a space bar! It appears at the bottom she accidentally copy pasted the beginning of her scam again and to me the entire thing reads like a drug deal with the adjectives she uses! Here is what I received from her

Good morning!
I got your inquiry for wanting to order products from Avon. I apologize that I took a few days to get it. (Spam folder caught it!) All fixed now.

Are you in our general area that I can get a catalog to you? Our new campaign starts in a few short days so it would be a fresh catalog.
