It's not clear whether there is a company matching the description in this spam. What is clear, however, is that it's fraudulent. This is cheque fraud: the scammer wants people to cash fraudulent cheques and forward the money internationally via Western Union or Money Gram. Such cheques clear for long enough to draw on them, but bounce later, potentially leaving the account overdrawn.

i'm going to play this one out for
a week or so. i'll keep posting.
take care out there :)
realmente no crean que pueda existir una compañia de esa magnitud y que necesite quien cobre por ella por favor no le crean de seguro es un fraude, el dinero facil no existe.
I hope this is correct.
Usted es muy sabio. it' s bueno que usted dijo España a verdad también. deseo que podría traducirla para el mundo. estos criminales tienen que ser expuestos.
this scam is worldwide.
good luck to you.
Yo tengo uno de sus cheques que mandan para hace fraude, no saben con quien me puedo contactar para ver si podemos hacer algo contra estos defrauddores
yo recibi un cheque ayer, por mas de 19,000 US Dolares, que me aconsejan que haga?
Do not deposit it: it is fake, and will eventually bounce. Either simply destroy it, or hand it over to the branch of law enforcement which deals with fraud.
