This sounds like a money wiring scam to me. They will ask you to deposit checks for these "packages" in your bank and then wire the money to the "employer" but keeping some of the money for yourself.  But the check will bounce and you will not be able to get your money back. These scammers can make themselves look very legit, which I would assume is how they got in the job fair you attended.

My gut tells me to avoid this! If you decide to follow through - DO NOT agree to deposit money, checks or wire funds.

Keep us posted!
