Subject: JOB APPLICATION FROM COTTON AND OSBORNE & LITTLE
Osborne & Little.
Riverside House
26 Osiers Road
London SW18 1NH
Osborne & Little are leading fabric and wallpaper designers. We are also distributors of Nina Campbell, Liberty Furnishings, Lorca and Michael Reeves Furniture. We want to offer you a job, simple and profitable enough, we can guarantee you that you'll earn not less than $600 even during the first week. Work will consist of receiving of the payments from our clients in USA and Canada .
Unfortunately we can't open the bank accounts in all the countries we work with and because of that we seek for a representative in USA and Canada
Basically what the Company is searching for is a Representative/Book-keeper in the States who would help to establish a medium of getting our funds from our customers there. If you are interested in working with us we would be very glad as inability to get our Payment in cash has posed a big problem and has affected account reconciliation and turn over grossly. These are legitimate transactions between our customers and our company Representative and there is no legal risk as these are payments for goods already bought and delivered. We are offering 10% of whatever amount it is that you cash per week as salary and subject to your satisfaction you will be given the oppurtunity to negotiate the mode by which we will pay for your services as our official Representative/Book-keeper in the States.
ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS RECEIVE PAYMENTS FROM OUR CUSTOMERS ON BEHALF OF OUR COMPANY IN THE UNITED STATES, GET IT CASHED IN YOUR BANK THEN DEDUCT YOUR WEEKLY PAY AND FOWARD THE BALANCE TO THE COMPANY DOWN HERE VIA WESTERN UNION/MONEY GRAM MONEY TRANSFER.Our payments will be issued out in your name and you get them cashed in your bank deduct your weekly salary and foward the balance to the company via western union/money gram money transfer. We are not a very large company but we are a fast growing one and
definitely 100% legal. We have never had problems with our payments and do not believe there could be any delays with our payments as we take extra ordinary measures to make sure that all
transactions run smoothly. Our accounting department puts all payment on hold for 24 hrs before we then permit our customers to forward the payment to our employees(you) for cashing.
We would have told our clients to send the money directly to US via western union but they often bring up complaints on wire fees and extra expenses and we don't wish to give them the idea that
we are ripping them off when we let them take out western union fees from the payment they make for the merchandise. We make good enough profit to afford to pay the middle man salary and the
western union fees but our customers do not need to know that plus it has been a tradition for them to pay us via US MONEYORDERS/TRAVELLER'S CHEQUES, The mode we would prefer would be
instant deduction of your salary from the Amount before going ahead to send whatever is left back via Western union/Money gram money transfer. We are aware that you would be charged to have
the money sent whatever that would amount to is to be deducted from the balance of the funds after you must have deducted your salary.At present time we have enough of potential buyers of our
programs, who are interested to purchase our products. After receiving the payment to your bank account, you should take off the sum from you bank account in cash. After receiving money, you
must inform us about receiving the payment and send this sum in cash to our manager through Western Union.Your earnings will be 10% from the sum received to your bank account. You should
take your 10% immediately after receiving the money and the rest of money you should send to our manager. Western Union fee you should pay from our money. As a result of the USA and
Canada market research we are convinced that our products have good sales potential. We presume that your earnings in the first month will total about 2500$; however we also assume that the
sales turnover in the nearest half-year will increase, and accordingly your earnings will increase also. Fill out this form if you are still interested in working with us and earn good pay.
