I received few job offers about transfering money from mine to someone elses bank account. It really seeme suspicious to me. Is it legal? Can I get in trouble if I accept that offer? Someone will send money to my account and then I will proceed it on the other account. In my country we call it MONEY LAUNDRY and I think this is about it.
I would appreciate any help with this.

SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM
Delete those scam-spam e-mails. Are you a sucker? Are you foolish? If yes, then fall for those scams.
The only people who make money on those scams are the scammers who are way smarter than the people who fall for them.
YOU would end up loosing money BIG TIME. Your identity will end up stolen, and you could get in trouble with the feds for your foolishness.
The way these work is simple. Fake money orders or forged electronic funds are deposited into your account. Then you forward the funds back to the scammer. In the meantime your bank has discovered, usually AFTER you forwarded the funds to the scammer that the funds you transfered were PHONEY.
You get stuck with the bill. You get charged with fradulent financial transactions. You GET INTO BIG TROUBLE with the feds. The offshore scammers laugh all the way to their off shore bank knowing what they have done is almost impossible to trace back to them.
Now, are you a sucker or or are you smart?

You are involved in a scam. Do not do this the funds they send you are no good and once you figure it out your money is gone.

DO NOT DO THIS - IT IS A SCAM!!!!
This sounds like the classic nigerian gold scam. Eventually the check you deposited will bounce and you will be stuck with the loss.

Yes! Think twice b4 you do something like that. More than your money getting taken, your identity and possibly your freedom if criminal charges are put forth.
