Subject: Job Offer
Hi,
How do you do?
My name is Laura Clark. I just came about your email address and your brief
profile through an email listing affiliated with the US Chamber of Commerce
and I would be very interested in offering you a part-time paying job in
which you could earn a lot.
This job would be based on contract and commission terms, it is a part-time
job and it would involve quite a handful of trust and honesty. If you would
be interested in including a good-paying, part time job to your daily list
of activities and earning up to $4000.
I just took time to make this explanatory enough so you could understand
what the job entails, before I go further I thought I'd inform you of both
who you would be working for and what you would be doing.
As I have previously already informed you, my name is Laura Clark, 35 years
of age, 2 kids, a lovely girl and a troublesome boy, and the love of my
life, my Husband, Richard. I am a somewhat multitalented woman and I do
quite a lot of traveling and get to meet quite a lot of people who need my
services.
I own a charity foundation which render helps and supports on humanitarian
services pretty much on orphanage homes , less privileged scholarship and
giving proper education on child abuse, sex education and subsidized medical
for good health most especially in the developing world . I reside in
London, England even as I have lived most of my life in other parts of the
world, I fully reside in London though I get to do a lot of traveling.
Presently, I have just been granted a funding to head a charity support
project in the tropical regions of West Africa regarding Poverty Alleviation
, counseling on the HIV AIDS which is increasing at an alarming rate and
provision of basic amenities in support to humanitarian services to the
third world nations and this would be commencing very soon, However my
funding were by my American counterparts which sent me the bunch of payments
mostly in US based money orders.
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, having read your resume and '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 states, 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 money orders as your commission for the great
service you rendered in support to saving life's in the third world and
then send the rest back to me through Western Union Money transfer.
Bear it in mind that we would be dealing with quite a handful of cash and
you could be making good money working with me in a short period of time.
I would be glad if you accept my proposal and I intend to commence on
starting as soon as you are ready. If you are interested, please email me
back so we could make concluding arrangements.
Thank You and God Bless
Laura Clark
