Subject: JOB OFFER
*Hello,
My name is Gray Mccoy, Executive Marketing officer for Transworld TEXTILE &
FABRIC LTD. I saw your advert on the web for employment and will be so glad
to have you as our agent if you're still looking for job.
We've been selling our products for the past few years and we're lately
facing serious difficulties when it comes to selling our products to
Americans because most customers offer to pay with a US MONEYORDER/CHECK,
which is difficult for us to cash here. We are looking for a representative
in the states who will be working for us as a partime worker and we'll be
willing to pay 10% for every transaction, which wouldn't affect your present
state of work.
We need someone who would be helping in receiving payments from our clients
in the States. An agent who is responsible and reliable that will be
handling the payment aspect. The payment will be addressed and sent to you
and all you need do is to get it cashed, deduct your percentage and wire the
balance back to any of our accountants/lawyers in our regional warehouses.
The problem we have is getting someone that is really capable and
trustworthy as though we surely have our way of getting anyone that tried to
get away with our money. The FBI will surely be interested and get
involved. This offer is not going to cost you any amount because all you
need to do is to receive payments which will be sent to you via delivery
courier from our clients, which would come in form of a money order/check
get it cashed and send the cash to our accountants/lawyers via MONEYGRAM
MONEY TRANSFER, and required charges for all transfer should be deducted
from the money. Looking forward to your response.
N.B:If you have a job you dont have to quit your present job
just write backto us via this
email;graym780@yahoo.com<email%3Bgraym780@yahoo.com>
Yours Faithfully,
Gray Mccoy.
