Beware Of The Package Manager Job Offer At BorderlinxUSA.com

by Webmaster · November 15, 2017

UPDATE 2/8/18: The website at borderlinxusa.com was shut down and deleted on 12/22/17, however as with most of these reshipping scams, the scammers usually just register a new domain and throw up a new website. MR Thomas Roman and Monica HR Thompson did just that and is now running this scam at perfectionprocessing.com registered on 12/29/17. Below is the screenshot of the perfectionprocessing.com website and you’ll notice it is the same website as the borderlinxusa.com website shown further down this article. They are also sending out recruiting emails claiming to have found the recipients CV on ZipRecruiter.

If you received an email with an invitation to apply for a Package Manager position from someone named MR. Thomas Roman from d17306@qip.ru and then someone named Monica with the email: Mary Jameson hr@borderlinxhr.com claiming to be the HR Manager at Borderlinx USA Company, it would be wise to not respond. Here’s why..

1st of all, the website borderlinxusa.com was just registered for 1 year only on 9/14/17 is an exact clone website of a shopping/shipping service website at borderlinx.com which has been online since 2006 and by all appearances it is the legitimate company website for the company Borderlinx which is headquartered in Brussels with offices in Paris, New York, London and Seattle.

There are some slight differences in these websites though. BorderlinxUSA.com has a “Career” page showing a full description of the Package Manager Job and it has an “Employees” login and “Apply Now” page with an online application asking for detailed personal information. However, this website is NOT secure! See screenshots below:

The legitimate website at borderlinx.com, does NOT have a “career”, “employees login” or “apply now” page. The US mailing address they give their overseas customers is a borderlinx hub through DHL that does all their international shipping and they do NOT use work at home “Package Managers” to accept and reship packages and their registration page IS secure. See screenshots Below:

The legitimate website also has social media accounts set up with the actual company website on these accounts showing as borderlinx.com. But beware, borderlinxusa.com is also linking their social media icons to direct to the legitimate companies social media accounts as well to appear legitimate hoping nobody will notice!

Just Another Reshipping Scam?

The people who created BorderlinxUsa.com has also registered domains specifically to use for emailing recruits and potential “Package Managers” such as borderlinx-hr.com (registered 11/1/17), borderlinxhr.com (registered 11/13/17) and borderlinx-mail.com (registered 11/1/17). So any emails their potential victims receive will likely come from one of these email addresses only after they receive an inquiry response to their initial bait email. Below is the “Job Description” taken from their “Career” page!

What To Do If You Are A Victim

You can visit the USPIS website here for more details about re-shipping fraud.

If you believe you’re a victim of a re-shipping/forwarding scam, file a complaint with Postal Inspectors online or call Postal Inspectors at 1-877-876-2455 (option 4, Mail Fraud).

You will need to contact your bank immediately and close your account IF you have provided your account information to the scammers. Next file a police report with your local authorities and also report the scam at http://ic3.gov which is the official site working in conjunction with the FBI to help stop internet crime.

If you provided your personal information like ss # birthdate etc , you should contact the 3 credit bureaus- TransUnion, Equifax and Experian, and place a fraud alert on your report. These criminals can steal your identity and may try and obtain credit in your name. Doing this will alert you for at least 90 days about any suspicious activity.

In the hands of a thief, just your name, address, Social Security number or date of birth, can be used over and over months- even years down the road to:

Open new lines of credit
Seek medical attention
Drain savings and retirement accounts
Provide an alias when arrested
Get a job or file false tax returns
Get Payday Loans in your name
Obtain service agreements for cellular service or utilities
Obtain Government Documents such as a drivers license or passport
And MORE!

That’s why I highly recommend you get some sort of ongoing identity theft protection such as the services offered through companies like LifeLock-Visit Their Website Here or Identity Force-visit their website here! LifeLock and Identity Force are both reputable companies that monitors your accounts and alerts and protects you from identity theft.
