I felt something wasn't right so I asked for more information ans this what I received:
Hello (again my actual name),
Glad to hear that.
Below is the list of the Transportation Specialist's duties:
As you can see, our company works as intermediary
between customers and sellers on almost all big online auctions.
Purchased goods will be going through you. The reason is because for a seller from US
auction or any US shop, it is much easier for them to send the item to a US address rather than to outside the US.
And then you will forward the item to the buyer, following my
instructions. You do not need to contact any buyer or seller.
Important notice:
You have to forward the item during the next 1-2 business days after
it has been delivered to you and the shipping label has been provided.
Please take a note: Package will be sent to you and will not be in your name.
In the attachment you can find an Agreement and Application form to
fill. Please print the last page of the Agreement, sign it out, scan or
make a digital photo it and send it back to me.
Also please fill out all fields in the Application form.
In the “subject” line please type “Signed Agreement”.
As soon as your application is received by an authorized official, you will be notified by e-mail,
at the email address that you mentioned in the application itself. This is done in ALL cases. Please do not send
additional inquiries. As soon as we process your application, you will know it!
Once this information is provided it will takes 5-10 days for you to receive
the first package.
As soon as the information about each purchase becomes available, I will
e-mail it to you in detail, including:
- tracking number
- web site where to track it
- customer's information
Also please send me verification of your ID (scanned drivers’ license or passport) in the attachment.
(you can scan it or make digital picture of it)
It is required to verify that you are who you say you are; it will be added to our database.
Without it we can't start our joint venture. Please be assured your identity is safe, and will not be used for any unlawful purpose.
Thank you and we look forward to working with you!

I never accepted the offer but they WILL send you packages and you will work for a month paying for the shipping materials out of pocket and then you will never here from them again. They will move onto the next person. This way they never pay for shipping materials and they get someone else to do the work for them.
On the agreement there was an address for an office in New York City with two phone numbers listed. One was a 347 area code and a 1-888 number. Both of which every time I called went straight to a busy signal.
The company website: http://globlogexp.com / is a joke. Its poorly done and they posted a fake BBB logo to make it seem as if they were accredited but the BBB has never heard of them.
Avoid it, I'm glad I did otherwise I would be out the amount of money for shipping material costs.
