I can't believe this my partner applied for a job and they offered him the position without any sort of interview or checking. Thought I would do a little digging my self and when I googled them this is the only thing I could find. I am so glad I read these first before handing any cash over that we don't have. We are gutted to put it mildly. Please don't hand any cash over it is all a lie and I can't believe they are allowed to get away with it. I have reported them and I think the police shuld be informed this is daylight robbery.

Thanks for confirming this to be a scam.

My wife found it and suggested it, but advised me to check it out, nevertheless. So glad that I did

Personally, got suspicious because of request for money up front and the letter offering the job included "We are pleased to inform you that we are in a position to utilise your services in the areas that you specified," yet none was specified. This made we suspect that it was a standard letter and therefore possibly a scam. Also there is no talk of a contract for you to be working with a supposedly reputable company.

Definitely not to be taken seriously. My advice: stay clear.

I saw this site advertised and told my son who is desperately looking for a job after being ripped off by The Training Room but thats another story!

Thank you so much for the warning. He got the same e-mail etc and when he rang they said they were so busy they couldn't take the call but gave options which I listened to. How on earth somebody wanting to send a parcel would go on I don't know - thats when I got wondering and decided to look again at the website. Just don't fall for it!

A definite scam

A definite scam. Search for 'pathway driving services' or 'jobs for drivers' for the same/similar scams in the past 5 years.

Thanks for the advice, I was very nearly about to send a cheque over and got really excited about this job, extremely gutted about that. I am thinking about reporting this to the police to.

Like everyone else if it sounds to good to be true then it is. What company offers you a job without knowing anything about you. What uniform could I wear on a motorbike. Everyone wants to scam you. BEWARE

Hi again and good morning,

My name is Lorraine James from Easy Drop. We have already been in touch but it seems our original email did not make it to you hence we are in contact again.

I am writing with regard to your recent application to Join Easy Drop as a self employed owner driver courier/delivery operator. We are pleased to inform you that we are in a position to utilise your services in the areas that you specified and would officially like to offer you the position.

The pay rate that we have specified will be £18.95 per hour, this is the current rate for your location and is applicable to both day and evening shift patterns. The minimum amount of hours that you will be required to be available for is 16, however we can offer up to 40 with the average being 35. Payment will be made to you on a weekly basis and can be made via bank transfer or cheque.

In order to accept our offer and to be eligible to deliver goods on behalf of Easy Drop, you will be required to wear our Easy Drop uniform and also carry Easy Drop stationery which is needed to complete all deliverys and collections, in addition to this you will also be issued an Easy Drop i. D card which, again must be presented upon the pick up and delivery of all items. Because our relationship is a partnership we will cover the majority of the cost of these items i. E. the uniform, stationery and i. D card, however we do require you to pay a small amount to contribute to this cost.

The amount that you will need to pay is £54.95. This amount will cover all your uniform and stationery needs for twelve months. Basically what will happen is; if any part of your uniform or stationery stock runs out or needs replacing just let us know and we will get replacements to you. Please remember that all of this charge can be fully claimed back through expenses so in real terms it will not cost you a single penny.

You may ask why we charge something toward the uniform, stationery and i. D card.The simple answer is, it costs quite a bit of money.We feel that this is fair, we are in a partnership and you are self employed therefore all we are asking that we share the cost. If you are prepared to contribute to the cost of your uniform etc. it tells us a lot about you and your intent to pursue this line of work with the level of professionalism that we desire. We are also pretty sure that you will feel secure in the knowledge that you will be partnering a company that insists that its delivery contractors are fully liveried. Everyone that works with us will show the same level of commitment towards creating a professional company.

You can make payment by either Cheque, postal order, or securley online by Credit Card. If you wish to pay by credit card please click here and you will be taken to our secure payments page, where you will also be prompted for the size of the garments you require. If you would prefer to pay by credit card over the phone please call *******829 during office hours and one of our staff will process your payment.

If you wish to pay by Cheque or Postal Order please Make payment to Cracked IT, please send to Easy Drop, Innovations Business Centre, 54 Blossom Street, York, YO24 1AP. Important: On the reverse of your cheque or postal order please state your size (s, m, l, xl, xxl) and your name and address.

Once we receive payment we will the dispatch your uniform, stationery pack and i. D card, shortly after you receive these we will activate you on our system and at this point we will get you started with your first assignments. In addition to this once you are active one of our members of staff will be in contact togo through all operational procedures and answer any further questions that you may have.

If you have any queries regarding any aspect of this offer please call us on *******829 or email us on *******@easy-drop.co.uk and we will answer any questions you may have.

I look forward to forging a long and mutually beneficial relationship with you. Thank you for your interest in Easy Drop.

Best Regards

Lorraine James.

Easy Drop, part of the Cracked IT group.

Same old story sent of application for a job. Got a reply, then it came only £54.95 for uniform, ID card and paperwork. Only after payment would I be contacted.On top of this the only contact is a 0871 number which can be very expensive to call.The business address is a holding address only. Please don't fall for this one.
