3,000 / month for 15 hours a week, no experienced needed, that an implausible amount of money.
The actual bv-rentals.com site is Only 3 Weeks Old and is using a Panama based paid registration proxy to conceal the real owner information, this is common for innocent home based businesses as well as scammers. The Switzerland address given on the site leaves me uneasy, Google Maps was unable to find the specific address, or the street.
Other now abandoned sites which contained the same contact email address a few weeks ago include: rzrentals.com, bvrentals.com, rrentalz.com
The same About Us verbiage appears in this resume page:

I saw the advertisement for a job with them as well and something didn't seem right. First, they said that during the probationary period you will be earning $3,000 per month working only 15 hours per week. Working hours were 9-5, Monday through Friday and you basically had to work the hours they tell you to work. After the 3 month probationary period of they allow you to continue working the pay shoots up to a base salary of $4600 per month. OK, fine and dandy. BUT, where the red light should go off is that they want you to use your bank account to move the money..right there, something doesn't seem right and also, they wire your pay to your bank account. Then the money that goes through your bank account from the US based "clients" you have to wire to bv-rentals using Western Union. Something just doesn't smell right and as the saying goes, if something seems to good to be true it isn't. You have to trust your gut and if you feel something is a scam, it usually is.
No, it isn't true. It's an utter scam that basically uses you to filter payments that probably don't exist through your account and then when the payment doesn't go through, they take the "money owed" out of your account. A N Y T H I N G that involves YOUR money or YOUR bank and promises the moon for a few hours a week is utter malarkey. I can't believe that Yahoo has them on mail.yahoo.com as a banner ad for their webmail service. Walk wround this like dog poop on a park lawn.
I think not....I was really excited when I saw the excepted me as an employee but came to the realization this was a crock of ****! I am not supplying my Bank info at all! Futhermore I have been trying to get a job at a telemarketing place and they checked my background and I have an assault charge from almost 4 years ago and can't get on there.How the heck they aint' see that!
Okay this sucks big time :( I trusted them because they were endorsed by Yahoo. Now they haven't gotten back to me after I gave out my details. Good thing I stayed on the safe side. I did something with the bank account I sent them details of just to be sure. Yeah they got personal details from me so I'm only praying for the best. Grrrr.... :(
i was immediately hired with a so called back round check clearing me in record time, a full contract was sent to me which when reviewed by a friend in a lawyers office and a banker friend appeared legitimate and was probably a copy of a real contract for a real company with the name changed. Their intention was never to mess with your bank account but to get innocent buyers to pass their money through you and as short lived as it is they never had to worry about paying you. they had an agent login page where you could upload bank accounts and review customers you were to contact and get specific needs for their vacation etc. I was contacted by a trainer for about a month taking awhile to train and he would explain to me how busy they were and sorry he was slow in training me, after 3 weeks they were actually going to try and process orders through me. I explained to them that their would be alot of paper work to process with the bank where wiring money internationally was concerned, after the crack down on home security and the 911 incident. never heard from them again and the web page was gone the next morning :) (if you call their number, which is swiss, it is a generic answering service saying person unavailable leave a message)
I noticed their ad up on yahoo right now.

Anything dealing with your own personal account and western union is most likely a scam.
Most likely they are scamming other people, the people they are scamming are sending you the money and then you send the money to them. I am guessing the reason they do this is they need a USA address to appear legit.
I just saw a job offer ad in above my Yahoo Inbox (meaning sponsored ad) from Best Value Rentals in Switzerland who is recruiting travel agents in USA for their USA customers.
I read through their position details (http://www.ung.bv-rentals.com/page-travel-agent-job.html), and it sounds legal and okay, but I've read these type of businesses are most likely scam, also the weird thing is I could usually find some negative reviews through Google search. But this company (I typed either "Best Value Rentals" or "bv-rentals.com") didn't get ANY, meaning neither good or bad, results AT ALL...
The website says they have been in business since 1999. I would think there should be something about it if it's scam? But all I got is their business related results...
Any insights or information?
