This is a scam, real businesses do not recruit using mass emails.

im pretty sure its a scam,,business dont normally use money orders to pay for goods, they probabably want you to open and account at a bank, then they steal your identity with all the information you used to open that account.

Sounds more like a scam to me than anything else. Don't even response. Once they have your details, the next thing they'll do is ask for your bank account & a sign statement from you. Next, they'll bring it to the bank & wip out your account. Money don't come that easy & greed can kill.

Very Easy, Just take their business name and check to see if it is valid under BBB. Once, I had to take a web design company's EIN number to the IRS webpage to see if the business was legit.

It is a scam. First, no company recruits this way or ever needs to recruit this way. Read the references on how you would lose your money.

This is a typical style of email that is used to recruit those that will fall into the trap of being a money launder of black money and by using an innocent go between like yourself in major trouble and keeps the black money marketer away from legal issues.
