Dear Friend,
My name is Michael Fred, and I'm British (born and living in UK.) I'm a
freelance researcher. I am to head a environmental research in Asia, which is
commencing soon. I do a lot of traveling to cover various part of my
research.
However most of my projects is being funded by American/Canadian counterparts
who send me payments via US/Canada based bank Money Orders and checks. Which I
have problem cashing, because it takes up to 4-6 weeks to clear over here.
Getting an accountant in the states or opening an account would have been my
best choice but I have deadline to meet and taking any of those choices would
cost me time and a whole lot of other requirements, which I will not be able to
cope with.
I found your email via an online surveyed listing, and I am emailing you to
offer you a part time job of helping me cash checks/Money Orders in the
States/Canada. Which you will be getting a 10% payment from any amount of check
you receive as your commission for cashing the checks.
Have it in mind that you are not putting any money upfront and your banking
information are not required. If You're interested, you are to provide me with
the below information below:
Your Full Name:
Your Address (NOT P.O Box):
City, State, Zip:
Occupation:
Phone Number(s):
AGE:
Sincerely,
Michael Fred
