Scam!
There are thousands of businesses that operate outside of the U.S and get paid just like everyone else. They don't need a rep to accept payment, cash the checks and then submit the other 90%; they can do all that by themselves.
The clients are fake as are the checks.
I've gotten plenty of offers like this sitting in my 'Junk Mail'.
**-Western Union is still a viable means to commit fraud. Scams like this use it everyday.
Come on, use your head! Companies don't need a third-party to accept payment, take out 10% and send them the rest.
The "client's" checks are fake. The bank will eventually find out the checks are phony and you'll owe the bank for all the checks you cashed on the company's behalf plus any fees. And by then, you'll have sent this "company" their 90% thru W.U. Which you'll never find or hear from again.
Well, if you're still not convinced, try it. But don't come a whinin' when you find out it's a scam.

Don't - this is a pretty common scam. The "payments" will bounce, but not until after you send off their 90%, and you'll be out that money.

Sounds a little off-center. They should have their own bank accounts set up here. Sounds like they are trying to avoid taxes -- steer clear.

Definitely a scam--don't fall for this one. By giving them bank account information in your name, you're leaving yourself open to identity theft.
