You do realize that you give these people free publicity when you post such things, don't you?

I'm sure Vic meant well. Besides, isn't it good for the general public to know what fraud looks like?

Good day to you Sir/Madam,

clothing materials, batiks,assorted fabrics and traditional costumes.

The handling of the company is in the care of myself and two elder
brothers.As the Public Relations Officer of the company,it came to my
knowledge that there are a lot of lapses in handling funds that come in from
the states which come in forms of cashiers checks,company checks and
money orders and are not readily cashable outside the United States,So we
need someone in the States to work as our representative and assist us
in processing the payments from our various clients which come in on a
weekly,monthly and annual basis.This is why we decided to get a
representative over in the states to help us pick up our payments at your

clients which would come in the form of cashiers checks,travellers checks
and money orders.

2)You then get the payments cashed/deposited at your bank.

3)As soon as the payment has been cleared by your bank,you then deduct
a commission of 10% of each payment you would be receiving on our
behalf which you are entitled to as been our representative

4)You thus send the remaining funds back via western union to details
you would be given as soon as it has been confirmed you have received
payment.

Our payments will be issued out in your name as we would inform our

I just received the same one - I always wonder how the heck they get your email address. Any way on doing some research if anyone is interested here are a couple of places you can report these sorts of things:

[email protected] - phishing email - Anti-Phishing working group
[email protected] to report spam

Or go to:
http://www.ic3.gov/ to have this scam put in a database - FBI and National White Collar Crime Center
