1.	Solve : Might be a stupid question but I really need an answer?
Answer» My friend has been working online for a mortgage company. She has received all kinds of detailed information about the location of the company, the Manager, and the Supervisor. However, she was supposed to be paid on July 22nd, and still hasn't received her salary yet. I looked into some of the emails she has gotten from them and found out by looking up the IP addresses that they are coming from Ghana and Nigeria and not from the location they are claiming to be from. I am trying to prove to her that the company and manager she is receiving emails from is from Nigeria and Ghana. She then told the manager about the information and he stated that the reason it was showing up as coming from different places is because they are on a rotationary server. They are supposed to be from Seattle, Washington. I tried looking up rotationary server on Google to see if it exist and I can't seem to find any information anywhere. If anyone can please tell me if this is true or not I'd really appreciate it. The manager is supposed to be a computer technician so she needs some kind of information to back herself up when she tells him it doesn't exist. (that's if it doesn't exist anyway) Thanks to anyone who helps. The next request should be for your friend to send her bank account details, including any online PASSWORDS, to Ghana/Nigeria so that her salary can be paid into her account, if she hasn't already parted with the details. It's a variation of the great Nigerian scam and if she has already parted with her account details she better advise her bank pronto or she could be cleaned out big time!!! Try finding the company name in a Seattle business directory. Quote the reason it was showing up as coming from different places is because they are on a rotationary server. The only rotation will be your friend going round in ever decreasing circles. See here.... Another current scam is overseas companies wishing to channel invoice payments thru' individual's accounts for which each individual would be paid large sums. This is money laundering, generally from illegal sources (drug sales etc), and is soon picked up by banking/federal SECURITY authorities. The laundering is in itself illegal and the penalities can be severe. Good luckIt definitely sounds like a scam, but just out of curiosity, what's the name of this company? And what exactly does your friend do for them?i doubt they would have a server that they route to in africa, from western america. it would be a mess of a lag. i'd say that its a scam. the rule i live by is never expect to get paid for stuff over the internet. i would never give some one my personal information like that. i'd say your friend should report to an authority and see where they say to go with it. the last thing that you want is your friend getting in trouble for something she/he had no idea they were a part of. It is almost certainly a scam. You "work from home"; they send you some kind of fake work, (or the promise of it) some kind of typing work USUALLY, but they want your bank details! That's the objective. They prey on the, er, gullible. Confidence tricksters ("SCAMMERS") trap people who are greedy or desperate. Believing you can make money via the web marks you as gullible. You end up on a scammers list of potential victims.
