My boyfriend applied for a job online for baggage handle for the airport. Received E-mail from Frederick Richardson (Recruitment Director), Deutsche Post DHL. Email looks very legit with attached manuals to look over and reqest that you submit new hire forms and pay $95.00 for background check online at Says they accept all major credit cards and Pay Pal. There is no physical address, no phone number.
I know background checks do not cost that much and most companies usually pay the fee. I googled name Frederick Richardson and DHL Express and I found a lot of complaints of fraud.
I told my boyfriend this was a fraud and he did not submit anything.
