ParcelOne.org Reshipping Forwarding Scam

by Webmaster · August 4, 2015

Parcelone.org was just registered 2015-07-23 for one year only and is hosted on an IP address located in Russia, although the domain is registered to someone by the name of Allen Miller with the address 271 MADISON AVENUE, NEW YORK, NY 10016 which is also the business address listed on the Parcelone.org website. The phone number shown on the website, +1 347 305-5116 does NOT match the phone number on the domain registration which is +01.7013913397.

Here’s a screenshot of the homepage:

Here’s an excerpt from the “About Us” page:

Parcel One is a famous international company that provides its customers with shipping services and those related to online shopping. We have been working on the international market from 2004. For this time we have proved ourselves to be decent and reliable partners.

Our goal is to make our customers’ shopping as easy and efficient as possible. We want shopping to become a great joy instead of exhausting routine for everyone.

We have provided our services to more than 2,000 buyers from various countries of the world. We forward parcels to all parts of the planet. Our loyal customers live in Brazil, Spain, France, Chile, Italy, China, Russia, Japan, India, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Sweden, Finland, etc.

The variety of the services we offer allow us to assist our customers in every stage of their shopping starting from choosing the product till executing all required shipping documents and forwarding the package to the relevant country.

I’m sure they are recruiting job seekers as Shipping Clerks or Receiving Operator etc. in the USA as we speak based on the FAQ page, here’s the Q&A that proves this:

Q: What is the address for shopping you will provide me with?

A: The address is not a PO Box. This address is a “real US street address, provided and managed by our officers in the USA in various states.”

Fake/Stolen Team Member Photos

Scam websites like this try to make the website and the “business” look legitimate by featuring photos of their so-called top management team and ParcelOne.org is no different. Below is a screenshot of their “Top Team” photos:

It’s “AMAZING” how Samuel Brown and Michael Gossett look EXACTLY like Michael Doe and David Smith on the Team Member Demo page for a company that sells wordpress themes call Astra Themes as shown here: http://astra.us-themes.com/shortcodes/team-member/. Below is a screen shot of that Demo page:

These are merely photos found elsewhere on the web that scammers will steal and use on their own websites in order to appear legitimate to their victims!

So if you have received an email from someone claiming to be a representative of Parcel One offering you a “job”, do NOT respond or provide any information to them. The IP address for ParcelOne.org is within the same IP range as 2 other reshipping scams we previously posted about for Continental-Transit.com and Integrated-Express.com. So It’s also very possible ParcelOne.org is operated by the same group of criminals.

REPORT MAIL 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).

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 have mistakenly provided scammers any of your personal details such as your drivers license, social security number, credit card or banking information, I recommend you also get some sort of identity protection such as the services offered through companies like LifeLock-Visit Their Website Here!

Have you received an email offering you a “job” with Parcel One or other similar company that you never applied for? Feel free to copy and paste the email in the comments so we can help alert and prevent others from becoming victims.
