I received the following in my email this morning. I have of course translated some of the the more confusing terms and sentences.

Dear Sir/Madam,

Ravenscourt Supplies Inc. (shell corporation that really does nto exist) is an European construction Company, which has a Standardized office (garage) here in UK. Ravenscourt Supplies a full range of building materials including bricks, blocks, lintels, dpc, tools, insulation, fixings, sealants, fencing, timber, plywood, drainage,
velux and safety equipment Worldwide (and by worldwide we mean that we have sent this spam email to people around the world). We have reached big sales volume (we are scamming too many people to count) of Constructing Materials in Europe and now are trying to penetrate the USA/Canada market. Quite soon we will open representative offices (money laundering franchises) or authorized sales centers (money laundering franchises) in the USA/Canada and therefore we are currently looking for people (suckers) who will assist us (get scammed or take the fall if we get caught) in establishing a new distribution network (money laundering franchises) there. The fact is that despite the USA/Canada market is new to us we already have regular clients (suckers) infact our products speak for itself.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO FOR US:
But we have a problem that's setting us back (current US and international laws). We have some problem collecting our payments from our USA/Canada clients. The international money transfer tax for legal entities (companies) in USA is 25%, whereas for the individual it is only 7%.There is no sense for us to work this way, while tax for international money transfer made by a
private individual is 7% .That's why we need you (to take the fall and/or be suckered). We need agents (suckers) to receive payment for our products (in Money Orders or Checks ) from our clients in the USA/Canada and to send the money to us via Western Union Money Transfer, or any related Money Transfer Agent. This way, we will save money because of tax decreasing. (aka money laundering)

JOB DESCRIPTION:
1. Receive payment from Clients
2. Cash Payments at your Bank or Exchange Rate Offices
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.

HOW MUCH WILL YOU EARN ?
* 10% from each operation. For instance: you receive $8000 via Checks or money orders on our behalf. You will cash the money and keep $800 (10% from $8000) for yourself; at the beginning your commission will equal 10%, though later it will increase up to 12% as you can earn up to $80,000-$150,000 anually from us.

ADVANTAGES

You don't have to go out as you will work as an independent contractor (sucker, money launderer) right from your home office. Your job is absolutely legal (not really but what do we really care if you get caught). You can earn up to $10,000-$20,000 monthly depending on time you will spend for this job. You do not need any capital to start. You can do the work easily without leaving or affecting your present Job. The employees (suckers) who make
efforts and work hard have a strong possibility to become managers. Anyway our employees never leave us.

MAIN REQUIREMENTS
* 18 years and above
* Legally capable (?????)
* Responsible
* Interested Persons/Applicant (suckers) are required to Forward The Following Informations Below
Name:..........................
Address Line 1:................
Address Line 2:................
City:..........................
State:.........................
Zip:...........................
Phone:.........................
Occupation..................... (why?)
Age............................(why?)
Marital Status.................(why?)

You will be contacted by a staff of the company in 48hrs on your response of interest for the Job Position and you will be Informed on when you will receive the first set of Payments.


So my days as a member of the Bar are numbered. I will soon retire to easy street with all of the dough I will be making thorugh my new venture.

Wish me luck!!

Congrats. I got one of these too a while back, from some 419'er that was utilizing a real company name out of Australia. However, his email addy and links bounced to his own page, with cut and pasted images/text essentially of the real company's. At any rate, the principle of the email (i.e., the scam) was just like this...a departure from most of the other desperate-oil-heir/heiress emails coming out of that region.

I strung him along for a while, and also let the real company know what was going on. These scammers are so fun to screw with, but too damn time consuming.
 
If I had a cigar for everyone of these scams I've seen on the Judge Judy or People's Court show, my house would be a walk-in humidor!
 
Esquire - your tranlation of these difficult terms are wonderfully informationing, please explaine what means by "and now are trying to penetrate the USA/Canada market?" I want to be rich like you!
Humbaly yurs, :D

"and now are trying to penetrate the USA/Canada market?" can have two possible meanings and possibly means both at the same time.

1. We have already suckered the rest of the world and now are trying to tap this new territory.

2. The US and Canada have the greatest population of suckers per capita who will undoubtably fall for this scam and we cannot pass up on this target rich environment.

I am infact one of the happy employees (sp) of Ravenscourt Supplies Inc. that will never leave, of course i will never leave my 8 x 12 jail cell either, which BTW is 3/4 filled with the cleanest money around.

My Momma is SOOOO proud of her oldest son
 
While that message will generally get a "huh?" from those they send it to, the slickest one I've seen lately is the "secret shopper" scam. Seems to get 'em every time. :angry:

And while it appears they're doing money laundering, in fact they're passing off counterfeit checks and money orders to their victims. They're leaving people all over the place scratching their heads - most of which can ill afford being scammed out of anything...

OMG - This is GREAT news!!! :thumbs:
 
I get at least two "job offers" like that a day Jason and have been for the past six months or so. :laugh:

At least you're willing to make the "big move." :thumbs:

Me, I'm too lazy so I'll just sit here and continue to do nothing. ;)
 
Jason - This is awfully tempting - came in today. I'm a little concerned that this job offer may be a scam, but you just never know. When you get a moment, would you please take a look at it and give me your thoughts...

Dear Sir/Ma,

Please permit me to write you irrespective of the fact we have not met before. I got your contact through network online hence I decided to write you. I would be very interested in offering you a part-time
paying job in which you could earn a lot (thank goodness, because I have a boatload of bills to pay and part time employment is right up my alley!!!).

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, which I am not ready to deal with. That is where i need your assistant and service (I'm not an accountant by trade, but I do know how to spend money and can count. I think I might just be qualified...).

WHAT I NEED YOU FOR?
You will be working as my payment assistant in charge of collecting and processing the payments from the Associates. (Hmmm.... You have my interest up to this point. This looks do-able...).

JOB DESCRIPTION?
1. Receive payment (inform of money orders/checks) from My Clients/Associates. (I've got a mailbox in front of my place - this could work).
2. Cash the Payments at your Bank (I've got a bank account - this could work).
3. Deduct 10%, which will be your percentage/pay on Payment processed. (Hmmm..... The last guy offered me 13%, but 10% is not far from that. Maybe we can negotiate....).
4. You will then forward the balance via Money Gram or Western Union Money Transfer according to my instruction. (MoneyGram/Western Union - not that far from the house. Might take a little effort, but for 10-13% I might be willing to invest the effort....).

REQUIREMENTS?
18 years or older. (Yep!).
Legally capable. (Not sure what this means - I suppose I'm okay because I've not been adjudicated as "legally" insane).
Responsible, Reliable and Trustworthy (I've been told that once or twice in the past).
Ready to work 3-4 hours per week. (Hmmm...... Schedules awful full, but I think I might be able to pencil in 3-4 hours in a week)
Able to check and respond to emails often.(I wonder if this is included in the 3-4 hours in a week)
Easy telephone access.(I've got a coupla phones at my disposal - and know quite a few other people I could hit up if the need arose)


IS THIS LEGAL?
Yes it is. As a matter of fact, my lawyer checked all legal provisions to know if there is any domestic or international law against businesses or deals in this manner. And he said its allowed by all LAWS. So know that doing this work is safe and legitimate. Guess all is well understood,I would be glad if you accept my proposal. (Hmmm...... This is where I need a set of eyes from the legal community...... While very tempting, I need to ensure it is legal. I don't want to violate any laws in carrying out my "payment assistant" duties.....)


Mail me if you are interested. Please reply with the details stated below:

NAME (Yep.... I've got one of these....)
ADDRESS (.....and one of these too....)
PHONE NUMBER (....sure.....)
AGE (I'm wondering about this - I thought US anti-discrimination laws prohibit an employer from asking this question on an application.....)
SEX (.....same here.....)
OCCUPATION. (Yeah - I've got one of these, I suppose, although I wonder why he's not asking for a resume.....)


ALL REPLIES SHOULD BE SENT TO :
dr.david_ellis@yahoo.co.uk

Regards,
Dr Raymond.

(...Oooohhhhh.... And he's a DOCTOR TOO!!! Oh, this just HAS to be legit!!!)
