I reported it to police in Sydney but they never answered my email.<BR/><BR/>Anyway it did not do me any harm, I even got 600 dollars that way.<BR/><BR/>Here the email:<BR/><BR/> * * * * * *<BR/> <BR/> Hello, and thank you for your interest in this international position of fund manager for the Halton Sales Group (Denmark).<BR/> <BR/>If you become part of our team you will have the chance to start making up to $1100+ AUD a week. There is no start up fee.<BR/> <BR/>This is a 'new generation' job position, practiced by a number of international companies.<BR/> <BR/>Job Description:<BR/> <BR/> Due to a taxation loophole between Australia and Sweden, your role will be as a Sub Distributor for our company, handling payments for our company. <BR/><BR/>Your commission will be 10% of each transaction.<BR/> <BR/>Because you are an individual, we only have to pay 2% tax for every sale that we make through you (as the sub distributor), rather than having to pay <BR/><BR/>a higher rate as a company.<BR/> <BR/>Thus it is more beneficial for us to handle our business this way.<BR/> <BR/>Here is an example of what is involved. (You will receive instructions at every stage, from steps 1-4).<BR/> <BR/>e.g.:<BR/> <BR/>1. You receive $3100 AUD from us into your nominated bank account. <BR/> <BR/>2. You go to the bank and withdraw 90%, and leave 10% for yourself.<BR/> <BR/>3. You go to Western Union (any post office) and send 90% of the amount to one of our agents. Note that Western Union fee comes out of 90%! You <BR/><BR/>don't spend your 10% to pay for any fees.<BR/> <BR/>4. You send us an email with a report of the transaction.<BR/> <BR/>5. As soon as we receive the report, you are given your next transaction the very next day!<BR/> <BR/>Outcome: You earned 10% from $3100 AUD, which is $310 AUD, and that was just one transaction. Not bad at all, right?<BR/> <BR/> <BR/>F.A.Q.:<BR/> <BR/>1. Do I pay any tax?<BR/> <BR/>This is not your income and the bank is aware of this, because we pay a fee to every Bank institution and it covers taxes for these transfers. And <BR/><BR/>it is one of the huge advantages of this position. All taxes for these transfers will be automatically dismissed for you.<BR/><BR/> <BR/>2. Is there a contract I need to sign?<BR/> <BR/>No, for your convenience this is a part-time position, and all you have to do is give us two days' notice if you wish to cease employment with us.<BR/> <BR/><BR/>3. How many transactions a day can I make, and how often?<BR/> <BR/>One transaction a day, five times a week, Monday- Friday. It could be four times a week, depending on your bank schedule. If your bank is closed on <BR/><BR/>Fridays, then you loose one day, one less transaction a week basically.<BR/> <BR/> <BR/>4. What products do you sell and what is the average amount I will work with?<BR/> <BR/>We are big on electronics and computer sales, heating and air conditioning supplies, but we also can help any other company make a sale, so it can <BR/><BR/>involve auto parts, housing equipment, beauty supplies (such as tanning beds), and other quantities in big products.<BR/> <BR/> <BR/>5. How long will I be able to work for you?<BR/> <BR/>You can depend on this opportunity until at least 5 August, 2010. We will have other opportunities available by that time, so you will be able to <BR/><BR/>continue on working with us.<BR/> <BR/> <BR/>6. Is this legal?<BR/> <BR/>Everything is above board and regulated by an official Australian financial government institution, an institution that controls outgoing and <BR/><BR/>incoming funds within Australia, that is the actual name of it - official Australian financial government institution.<BR/> <BR/> <BR/>7. Is this difficult?<BR/> <BR/>The work is not complicated at all. Anyone can try it out, and help is always available from one of our representatives.<BR/> <BR/> <BR/>If you wish to work for us, and join our team, simply reply back with the following information, and one of our representatives will be in touch with <BR/><BR/>you shortly.<BR/> <BR/> <BR/> <BR/>INFORMATION REQUIRED:<BR/> <BR/> 1. First name:<BR/> 2. Surname (last name):<BR/> 3. Address:<BR/> 4. City/town:<BR/> 5. Postcode:<BR/> 6. Country: Australia<BR/> 7. Mobile phone:<BR/> 8. Home/landline phone no:<BR/> 9. Name of your bank:<BR/> a) BSB number:<BR/> b) Account number: (numbers only)<BR/>10. Your email address: (to contact you best) <BR/> <BR/>AFTER YOU SUBMIT YOUR INFORMATION ONE OF OUR REPRESENTATIVES WILL CONTACT YOU....
