Please beware of this too good to be true offer from several different companies asking for a courier to cash and transfer money from stolen/counterfeit money orders.
The preditors want you to deposit the money orders received from the so called "suppliers/customers" from the US into your bank accounts, deduct the cost of wiring the money through Western Union Money Gram, and your 10% of the total of the money orders.
I took 5 money orders in the amounts of $950 each, to my bank, and they told me that they would have to place a hold on them. I explained the situation to my bank representative and he suggested that I take them to my check cashing place. I did and they told me they would have to verify them before cashing. We found out they were stolen/counterfeit and called the police.
The police came out and took a report and told me that I could be brought up on felony charges because the money orders were in my name, and I was an intermediary for the purpose of cashing them. This is a total scam.
If you have "applied" for this type of position, please make sure you keep copies of all correspondence and copies of the money orders or checks received to hand over to the police, FBI, or any US Marshall. It would be best if you called any one of the offices for law enforcement to verify that the person is really who they say they are.
