Answer 2

you would be one of a countless number who had this offer...

Answer 3

Yea, and your gig would be processing payment from clients to the company right and a real nice base salary for only a few hrs wk......After you deposit the fake checks in your account and send $$$ to Nigeria a few wks later you are told by the bank the checks are worthless you are out a LOT of $$$ and the company just resurfaces with another e-mail address ready to lure a few more suckers.

Think about it. Say they e-mail 10,000 people..... if 10 people fall for it and lose about 2k each that's around 20k.

Answer 4

Nigeria is the scam capital of the world.  Even if the offer was legit (which is probably isn't) I wouldn't want to go anywhere near it.
