Scam domain ultra-co.com (created 2005-01-31)
The "ULTRACO S.A." job offer is part of a series of scams designed to trick third parties into assisting the criminal laundering of stolen money. It has many similarities to the alpenantiqe.com and a-i-c-d.org frauds. For example, the website is a copy of an existing legitimate website, with the addition of a job offer page. As in the "Alpen Antique" scam the website is hosted by Yahoo, Inc.

Here is the message:Dear Mr./Mrs.
We are writing you on behalf of ULTRACO S.A., well-known prestigious Swiss company which main field of operation lies in selling elite watches collections and jewelry series. We are glad to propose you interesting and highly paid job in financial sphere. At this moment we are in need of new regional financial agents whose work consists of collecting the payments from the customers from the same country and forwarding them to our companys main office. Due to our operating employees inability to handle the sales volume we decided to open additional vacancies in each European country as well as in the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
Regional financial managers are needed because we accept bank wire transfers only and as you know international wire transfer could take more than 3 or even 5 days, thus increasing term of delivery up to 5-8 days. Such long term of delivery adversely affects our sales volume that's why we provide our agent's account details to the customer who is in the same country. Bank transfer within the same country takes 1-2 days only. After we receive confirmation that the amount has been received we send purchased items to the customer immediately. These actions let us to diminish term of delivery to 3-4 days.
Please visit our webpage at www.ultra-co.com/vacancies.html to get to know our proposal in greater detail and if you are interested please send an email to vacancy@ultra-co.com and we will send you an Application Form back. If you have any questions don't hesitate to contact us at info@ultra-co.com and we will reply you for sure. Thanks for reading our proposal.Chief Executive Officer,
Jose Ansari,
