Is this legal?
Discussion
I applied for a part time job and i received this email. It seems a little odd about what i have to do. is this illegal what they are asking me to do? Should i just walk away?
e have sales representative s all over the world to distribute our products.You know, that it's not easy to start a business in a new market (being the UK). There are hundreds of competitors, close direct contacts between suppliers and customers and other difficulties, which impede our sales promotion.We have decided to deliver the products upfront, it's very risky but it should push up sales on 25 percent.We need to get payments for our products as soon as possible.
Unfortunately we are unable to open Bank Accounts in the UK without first registering the company name. Presently with the amount of Orders we have, we cannot put them on hold. For fear of loosing the customers out rightly. Secondly we cannot cash these payments from the UK soon enough, as international Checks take about 14 working days for cash to be made available.
We lose about 75,000 UK pounds of net income each month because we have money transfer delays.You are not involved in any sales. Once orders are received and sorted, we deliver the product to a customer (usually through FEDEX/UPS).The customer receives and checks the products. After this has been done the customer has to pay for the products. About 90 percent of our customers prefer to pay through Certified Cheque,Money orders and Wire Transfer based on the amount involved.
YOUR TASK ARE:
1. Receive payment from Customers(either through Certified Cheque,Money orders or Wire Transfer)
2. Cash Payment at your Bank
3. Deduct 10% which will be your percentage/pay on Payment processed
4. Forward balance after deduction of percentage/pay to any of the offices you will be instructed to send payment to.
Our payments will be issued out in your name and you can have them cashed in your bank or other Cashing Services(if cheque or money order). Deduct your weekly salary and forward the balance to the company via western union money transfer or Money Gram. We understand it is an unusual and incredible job position. This job takes only 3-7 hours per week. You'll have a lot of free time doing another job, you'll get good income and regular job.

That's all the info you need......and the grammar.
Have a look at our site... www.419eater.com
They're not after your bank account details as such, but they're wanting you to act as a mule...kinda like a drug runner. The payments would be from other scams, cloned cheques...etc so you'd be effectively laundering the money through your account.
Of course, as the other have said, avoid!!!
