Hello Again,
Thank you for your prompt reply, before I go further I thought I'd inform you of who you will be working for and what you would be doing. As I have previously informed you, we are into Manufactures of Fabrics and Textiles with numerous customers home and abroad. We produce various clothing materials, batiks, assorted fabrics and traditional costume. We need a representative in the states who will be in charge of all our payment from the United States clients/customers because most of our customers from the states pay us through certified cheque, money order and cashier cheques which are not negotiable here in UK. This brings our quest to employ a credible and trustworthy fellow as our representative to handle our payments. This would not affect your present job but serve as another stream of income to your good self. Being our representative and assisting us in processing the payments from our clients, we will pay you weekly salary and shall earn about 10% of every payment
you assist us with because due to the fact that we cant cash the US money order upon receipt here in the UK immediately in the past we have lost about 75,000 USD of net income each month because of money transfer delays. Your task is to coordinate payments from customers and help us with the payment process. You are not involved in any sales. Our sales manager sells products. Once he makes a sale we deliver the product to a customer (usually through FEDEX).The customer receives and checks the products.
After this has been done, the customer has to pay for the products. About 90 percent of our customers prefer to pay us with Certified Cheques or Money orders based on the amount involved. We have decided to open this new job position for solving this problem. Your tasks are;
1. Receive payment from Customers
2. Cash it at any cashing point or at your banks and you will deduct 10% which will be your percentage/pay on Payment processed
3. Forward balance after deduction of percentage/pay to any of the offices you will be contacted to send payment to. (Payment is to be forwarded either by Money Gram or Western Union Money Transfer. A local Money transfer barely takes hours, so it will give us a possibility to get customer's payment almost immediately.
For example you've got 3000.00USD
you take your income: 320.00 USD
Send to us: 2680.00 USD
First month you will have 15-20 transactions on
3000.00-4000.00 USD
so you may calculate your income.
For example 18 transactions on 3500.00 USD gives you
5610.00 USD Plus your basis monthly salary is 1000.00
USD Total: 6610.00 USD per month After establishing close co-operation you'll be able to operate with larger orders and you'll be able to earn more. Our payments will be issued out in your name and you get them cashed in your bank deduct your weekly salary and forward the balance to the company via western union money transfer or money gram money transfer. We understand it is an unusual and incredible job position. This job takes only 3-7 hours per week. You'll have a lot of free time doing another job; you'll also get good income and a regular job. But this job is very challenging and you should understand it. We are looking for a worker who is satisfied with our requirements and will be an earnest assistant. We are glad to offer this job position to you. If you feel that you are serious about this and earnest worker, All we will need is your full name, address and phone number so we can forward it to our clients and they will start making payments to u as the company'
representative in the states and I would be glad if I can hear from you with all the information required.
Regards,
Terry davidson
