Scam?

    I posted on gumtree.com.au under the section "looking for work" I got an email from someone saying that they have a job for me where I can work from home and make a guaranteed $300 a day doing simple jobs. So I replied asking for more info, this is what they sent.


    I'm guessing he wants me involved in some kind of illegal money laundering?

    It'll be either transferring money from hacked bank accounts, or he'll be using your account to run auction scams or something similarly nasty.

    it`s strange to me,

    if they send money to someone bank account, and he/she doesn`t transfer the money to destination, what will happen for their business?

    or I can say it easier,

    they want to scam but they will be scammed. :D

    its easily a scam, unless you applied for a job like that. Its most likely your address was sold by someone and they are contacting you hoping that you will be daft enough to fall for it. Little did they know that these days anyone with half brains can differentiate between real and scam offers.
