Basically I recieved an e-mail syaing that this german company needed help cashing checks in the US now this e-mail was in response to a resume I had posted on a website casue I am in the process of looking for work.
At first this looks like a sort of money laundering. But its not. I'll let you read the scam and mayeb you can figure out whats going on.
Info on their process
Our organization needs YOUR help!
If you have any questions, please, contact our personal managers or read this FAQ.
Agent’s goals:
We’d like to call your attention to the fact that activities of our Organization are carried out throughout most of the European countries and the United States of America. Due to differences in national legislation, we truly need help of the citizens of these countries. Legislation of the United States of America only allows us to transfer Organization’s finances through physical persons. The main goal of Organization’s agent is to accept donations from legal and physical persons, who are unable to transfer funds to our Organization by bank transfer, and can only use cashier’s checks. So the main goal of our agent is to accept checks from physical persons, who would like to Charity money to our Organization, and to further transfer the funds to our Organization. Of course, this is a paid job. We shall pay you 10% of each transfer as your fee. So, you would like to become our agent and help our Organization and thousands of other people, whom we provide aid for. What do you need to do?
In more detail:
1. You need to cash the check at the check cashier’s centers (they take the fee for their services from the check value).
2. If you do not have access to check cashier’s centers, you can cash money at the bank.
3. After you have cashed the check, please, keep 10 percent of the sum of the check.
4. Transfer the remaining 90% sum of money via Western Union or Money Gram (the transfer fee can be taken off the sum of transfer, so no extra payment shall be needed).
5. Information on transfer of money via Western Union or Money Gram
Name ……………
Surname ………

6. After you have transferred the money, you will be given the control number MTCN (Money Transfer Control Number).
7. Send this number and information on the sum you have sent to our Organization.
8. The sums of individual transfers should not exceed $5000. Reports are not included into IRS. Do not worry, you won’t have to pay taxes for these sums of money.’
