If you are comfortable using shell scripting, then this example Automator Folder Action workflow works for me too.

Add a Move Finders Items action, while setting the To: list box to the a pertinent target folder.Add a Copy Finder Items action, while setting the To: list box to a pertinent target folder.Add a Get Value of Variable action, while setting the value of the Variable: list box to the value of Variable: set in the Set Value of Variable action, and check the Ignore this actions input check box under its Options.
Add a Set Value of Variable action, giving the Variable: a pertinent name.Start with setting the target folder for: Folder Action receives files and folders added to.Setup the workflow according to the individual actions in the order shown in the image further below and the Options shown on the two Get Value of Variable actions. This was tested with one file and many files at a time over a half dozen tests with different file counts and sizes, however I'd caution that this simple workflow might choke if invoked with to many really large files at one time. This following example Automator Folder Action workflow works for me.
