Jodhan Today, I would like to raise the alarm for anyone who is thinking of going into the shipping business as a small business venture. This particular scam is growing by leaps and bounds and the best way for you to safeguard yourself is to be aware of its existence. It seems as if scammers and schemers are using the Internet to entice and tempt wood be small business owners into becoming involved in shipping services. They are offering huge returns for anyone who is interested in shipping goods to other countries but you know what?The countries that you end up shipping to have very weak legal systems and the scammers and schemers are paying you with fake or stolen credit cards. If you are not aware of these two important facts; shipping to countries with weak legal systems and payment with fake or stolen credit cards, it would be very easy for you to fall prey to these unscrupulous people. True it is that if/when you are approached you are presented with a once in a lifetime offer, but please be very careful.
