My name is TONY ADAMS I am the owner of ADAMS TEXTILES
FABRICS COMPANY IN THE UK Presently, my company is looking for a
trustworthy bookkeeper, representative in Canada/USA. An excellent opportunity to work at home part time and still keep your full time job.

ADAMS TEXTILES AND FABRICS is a company that produces and sells
Chinese and African textile and fabric material in London. Our company
produces various clothing materials, batiks, assorted fabrics and
traditional costumes. We have clients we supply weekly in the states. My
clients make payments for our supplies every week by check which are not
readily cashable outside of the US or Canada; so we need a representative
to assist us in processing the payments. This will enable our cash to
flow more quickly and therefore would not tie down our capital. I would
be willing to employ you on contract basis to be my payment
representative back in the states. I am involved in alot of travel and this way I
could give my clients the authority to make the checks, money orders,
etc out to you. You could then easily cash at your bank, then withdraw
10% of the total amount as your commission and send the rest back to me
through Western Union wire transfer.

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THIS PROPOSAL FOR EMPLOYMENT PLEASE
COMPLETE THIS APPLICATION AND LETTER OF EMPLOYMENT. I NEED YOU TO FILL THIS POSITION AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

LOOKING FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU SOON.

JOB DESCRIPTION?

1. RECEIVE PAYMENT FROM CLIENTS (delivered by FedEx or UPS you would
need to be at your address to sign)

2. CASH PAYMENTS AT YOUR BANK (PAYMENT WILL BE MADE IN YOUR NAME TO BE
CASHED AT YOUR BANK) CLIENTS WILL CONTACT YOU FIRST AND SEND PAYMENT
VIA COURIER OR MAIL.

3. DEDUCT 10% WHICH WILL BE YOUR PERCENTAGE/PAY ON PAYMENT PROCESSED
(Example $5000.00 you would deduct $500.00 pay the Western Union fee out
of the $4500.00 left and send remainder to my company.

4. FORWARD BALANCE AFTER DEDUCTION OF PERCENTAGE/PAY TO MY COMPANY
(WESTERN UNION MONEY TRANSFER).

Is this a scam? Got an email for this “job” opportunity?

Would you like to work online from Home/Temporarily and get paid weekly? We are seeking to offer you a Job position with our reputable company, Global Source Fabrics And Textiles. We need someone to work as a Representative/Book keeper in USA,Australia and Asia/Europe.This is in view of our expansion program to USA,Australia and Asia/Europe, where we presently dont haveany office. You don’t need to have an Office and this certainly wont disturb any form of work you have going at the moment.

Our integrated yarn and fabric manufacturing operations use state-of-the-art textile equipment from the world’s leading suppliers. Order processing, production monitoring and process flow are seamlessly integrated through a company-wide computer network.
* The average monthly income is about 4000.00 USD.
* No form of investments from you.
* This job takes only 1-3 hours per day

About the job:
We have sales representatives all over the world to distribute our products.You know, that it’s not easy to start a business in a new market (being the USA,Australia and Asia/Europe). There are hundreds of competitors, close direct contacts between suppliers and customers and other difficulties, which impede our sales promotion.We have decided to deliver the products upfront, it’s very risky but it should push up sales on 25 percent.Thus we need to get payments
for our products as soon as possible. Unfortunately we are unable to open Bank Accounts in the US,Europe, Asia & Australia without first registering the company name.
Presently with the amount of Orders we have, we cannot put them on hold. For fear of loosing the customers out rightly to our competitors.Secondly we cannot cash these payments from the USA/Australia,Asia, and Europe soon enough,as International Cheques take about 14 working days for cash to be made available.We lose about 75,000 USD of net income each month because we have money transfer delays
*Hence Your task is to coordinate payments from customers and help us with the payment process.You are not involved in any sales. We make direct contact for sales of products. Once orders are received and sorted we deliver the product to a customer (usually through FEDEX).The customer receives and checks the products. After this has been done the customer has to pay for the products. About 90 percent of our customers prefer to pay through bank to bank transfer depending on the amount involved. That is why we have decided to open this new Job position for solving this problem.

Your tasks are;
1. Receive payment from Customers
2. Cash Payment at your Bank/Cash point
3. Deduct 10% which will be your percentage/pay on Payment processed
4. Forward balance after deduction of percentage/pay to any of our offices as you will be instructed.

For example you receive payment of 3000.00 USD you take your income: 300.00 USD Send to us: 2700.00 USD First month you will have 15-20 transactions on 3000.00-4000.00 USD so you may calculate your income.For example 18 transactions on 3500.00 USD gives you 4410.00 USD Plus your basis monthly salary is 1000.00 USD Total: 5410.00 USD per month After establishing a close co-operation with us you’ll be able to operate with larger orders and you’ll be able to earn more.Our payments will be issued out to you.Deduct your weekly salary and forward the balance to the company via western union money transfer or money gram money transfer We understand it is an unusual and incredible job position. This job takes only 3-7 hours per week. You’ll have a lot of free time doing another job, you’ll get good income and regular job.But this job is very challenging and you should understand it. We are looking only for a hardworking,reliable and honest worker who will satisfy our requirements and will be a consistent representative. We are glad to offer this job position to you.
It seems a little fishy.

I want to know how does the inspection procedure occurs when a textile industry receives rolls of fabrics. How do they inspect it for defects? Do they unroll them manually? (can it be done this way? if so how many rolls do they usually unroll)
