In lieu of spamming/scamming folks, simply set up a Paypal account and direct all your "customers" to remit payment through Paypal and your "problem" is solved.

My name is ANTHONY WILLIAMS and I am an artist.I saw your advert on the

web

for employment.I live in United Kingdom,with my two kids, four cats,

one dog

and the love of my life. It is definitely a full house. I have been

doing

artwork since I was a small child. That gives me about23 years of

experience. I majored in art in high school and took a few college art

courses. Most of my work is done in either pencil or airbrush mixed

with

color pencils. I have recently added designing and creating artwork on

the

computer.I have been selling my art works for the last 3 years and have

had

my work featured on trading cards, prints and in magazines.I have sold

in

galleries and to private collectors from all around the world.I am

always

facing serious difficulties when it comes to selling my art works to

Americans,they are always offering to pay with a US MONEY ORDER,which

is

difficult for me to cash here in United Kingdom. I am looking for a

representative in the states who will be working for me as a partime

worker

and i will be willing to pay 10% for every transaction,which wouldnt

affect

ur present state of work,someone who would help me recieve payments

from my

customers in the states.i mean someone that is responsible and

reliable,cause the cost of coming to the state and getting payments is

very

expensive,i am working on setting up a branch in the states,so for now

i

need a representative in the united states who will be handling the

payment

aspect. These payments are in money order and they would come to you in

your

name, so all you need do is cash the money order deduct your percentage

and

wire the rest back. But the problem i have is trust,But i have my way

of

getting anyone that gets away with our money,i mean the FBI branch in

Washington gets involved.It wouldnt cost u any amount,u are to receive

payments which will be sent to u by fedex or usps from my business

patners,which would come in form of a money order then u are to cash it

and

send the cash to me via western union money transfer or moneygram money

transfer,all transfer fees should be deducted from the money.If you are

interested,please get back to me on this email

(anthonywill102@yahoo.com)as

soon as soon as possible.

Anthony.
