These company claim to be from Africa, France, England etc and sale art or material or do bussines in the states but loss money when payment are sent out of the states. I can collect the money in my bank account keep a percent of the collection and send them the rest. I can make 3000 to 6000 a month. Does this sound fishy or what.

These types of "jobs" are scams - this is how they work:
They ask you to collect the checks from their customers here in the US. Then you send them the money minus 10% or whatever your pay is. You do get checks from someone to deposit. You get a 1000.00 check, you keep 100 and send them a check from your account for 900.00. These checks were actually sent from the company that originally contacted you and what they have just done is get 900.00 from you as the check they sent will come back as NSF or Account Closed.
Do not ever go for this type of scam! If they were a legitimate company they would have an account in the US. You could also get yourself involved in money laundering and be prosecuted for it - ignorance is not an excuse when it comes to these scams.
If you want a true work at home job then you must work for it - no one gives away money for nothing and if you have to pay someone to start up it is illegitimate too. There are some good work from home jobs but the money is realistic - you will not get rich quick but you can earn a steady income if you just need to supplement your spouses income or need a little extra at the end of the month.
The very very best to you and run, don't walk, away from this scammer!!

I read the entire thing and checked it out myself, and it is exactly what I thought it was...MOVEON.ORG trying to raise more money. They've never had any shame and I don't expect that they ever will. Remember, MOVEON.ORG was created for the purpose of stopping the Clinton impeachment hearings. Since then, it has taken on a life of it's own and is now one of the most influential organizations in Democratic politics. IT IS a partisan organization of George Soros, Michael Moore, etc., so when I read this guy talking about "reaching across the aisle" I just wanted to laugh. I'm an independent, but I DO support Obama and I think his economic stimulus plan -though not perfect- is what the country needs to get the economy back on track. BUT, it will be a cold day in hell before I EVER donate one cent to MOVEON.ORG

They are always scam! Don't get rip off. Only .01% isn't.

Save your safe hell and ignore those emails. Didn't you watched that news on tv about these kind of stuff. Goodluck! And don't fall for it. Do you think someone will just give you money? Only check in to cash do that kind of stuff but you pay them what 20% for just a week lending...

Ignore the scams but what is MORE IMPORTANT, how did
they get your email address? If it was me, I would change
my address fast, and maybe even change my email provider.
Any good provider will know these are scams and delete them
before you get your email. What kind of security-ware do you
have? These should not even be reaching your computer.

lemme tell you what i feel. most of the people get such mails.. even i have got such mails. if you reply to them, they would say that there is some legal prbl or such, to get the money to your account so, would ask you to send some dolors to their account and when you do that you will again get such mailswitha different reason to send the money and finally it will be like you are paying them for nothing.
i believe they are all spammers don't fall for it...
also u can search google or yahoo wit the company name they provided or with the details, you'll get the idea....
hope my answer helped you...

It is known as Nigerian 416. The Nigerian Bank even has a division trying to out root these guys but if it didn't work they would not be that persistent now, would they?

Definitely a scam - you'll most likely be laundering money for drug dealers. Stay away from it!
