Charles Hunt - Institute of Food Research

 

Fraud.

One out of five!

Greetings,

My name is Charles Hunt , I am a freelance researcher. I would be very interested in offering you a part-time paying job in which you could earn a lot. I just resigned my job as a research scientist for IFR (Institute of Food Research) but i still work as a freelance consultant for the institute which gives me very much time to do my own work which is basically being a freelance researcher who could be employed by research institutes to do research projects anywhere in the world.
WHAT YOU NEED TO DO FOR US
Presently, I have just been granted a funding to head a research project in the tropical regions of southern America regarding rare and vulnerable plant species and this would be commencing very soon, However my findings were by my Western Europe counterparts which sent me the bunch of payments mostly in Uk bankers draft. Getting an accountant in the states or opening an account would have been my best choice but I have a deadline to meet and taking any of those choices would cost me time and a whole lot of other requirements I am not ready to deal with as I would be traveling a lot in the meantime. So presently, assuming you would be able to deal with cash, "I would be willing to employ you on contract basis to be my payment representative back in the United Kingdom , this way I could issue and make these money orders out to you, you could then cash them easily, withdraw 10% of the total amount on these bankers draft as your commission and then send the rest back to me through !
Western Union wire transfer".
JOB DESCRIPTION?
1. Receive payment from Clients
2. Cash Payments 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 contacted to send payment to (Payment is to forwarded by Western Union Money Transfer).
HOW MUCH WILL YOU EARN?
10% from each operation! For instance: you receive 7000GBP via cheques or money orders on our behalf. You will cash the money and keep 700GBP (10% from 7000GBP) for yourself! At the beginning your commission will equal 10%, though later it will increase up to 12%!
ADVANTAGES
You do not have to go out as you will work as an independent contractor right from your home office. Your job is absolutely legal. You can earn up to 3000GBP-4000GBP monthly depending on time you will spend for this job.
You do not need any capital to start. The employees who make efforts and work hard have a strong possibility to become managers. Anyway our employees never leave us.
MAIN REQUIREMENTS
18 years or older
Legally capable
Responsible
Ready to work 3-4 hours per week.
With PC knowledge
E-mail and internet experience (minimal) And please know that Everything is absolutely legal,I would be glad if you accept my offer and I intend to commence on the job as soon as you are ready.
