My names are DR JAMES L JONES and I am 58 years of age. I just resigned myjob as a research scientist for ARINI(Agricultural Research Institute of
Northern Ireland) and I now work as a freelance consultant for the
instistute which gives me very much time to do my own work which is
basically being a freelance researcher who could be employed by
research institutes to do research projects anywhere in the world.

Presently, I have just been granted a funding to head a research
project in the tropical regions of Europe, regarding rare and vulnerable plant
species and this would be commencing very soon.

Anyone want the guy's email ? :D

Dear Sir/Madam,

How are you doing. I came across your email address and your brief
profile through an email listing affiliated with the US Chamber of Commerce. I
would be very interested in offering you a part-time paying job in
which you could earn alot.

My names are DR JAMES L JONES and I am 58 years of age. I just
resigned my job as a research scientist for ARINI(Agricultural Research Institute of Northern Ireland) and I now work as a freelance consultant for the instistute which gives me very much time to do my own work which is
basically being a freelance researcher who could be employed by
research institutes to do research projects anywhere in the world.

Presently, I have just been granted a funding to head a research
project in the tropical regions of Europe, regarding rare and vulnerable plant
species and this would be commencing very soon.

This research program will be funded and sponsored by some of my
American counterparts and Associates. But the only set back is that the American counterparts want to make payments for the research in form of US money orders/ travellers cheques only and its a known fact that money in such forms cannot be cashed outside the US. Getting an accountant in the states or opening an account would have been my best choice but I have a deadline to meet and taking any of those choices would cost me time and a whole lot of other requirements which I am not ready to deal with. This is where I need to employ your assistance and service.

WHAT I NEED YOU FOR?
At this point, I will be glad if you could work with me as my representative in the US. You will be working as my payment assistant incharge of collecting and processing the payments from my Associates.Since they will be making the payment in Money orders/ Travellers cheques made payable only in the US, you will be collecting this payments and cashing them on my behalf. On agreement to been my representative in the US, you will receive a commission of 10% of whatever amount of payment you receive from my associates.

JOB DESCRIPTION?
1. Recieve payments (in form of money orders/travellers cheques) from
my associates via mail(UPS/FEDEX/DHL).
2. Cash the Payments at your Bank.
3. Deduct 10% which will be your commission/percentage on Payment
processed.
4. You are to remit the balance via Money Gram or Western Union Money
Transfer according to my instruction.

HOW MUCH WILL YOU EARN?
10% from each transaction! For instance: On receiving 6000 USD via
cheques or money orders on my behalf. You will cash the payment and keep 10% to yourself before remitting the balance! At the beginning your commission will equal 10%, though later it will increase up to 12%! For the
research, I am expecting about the sum of $45,000 in total from the clients(though the money will be sent in installmentally due to the progress of my research). You could make over $4,500 for the little time we will be working together.

ADVANTAGES?
You dont have to go out of your present daily activity inorder to
engage in this Job(i.e. you can do this Work easily without leaving or
affecting your present Job).You will work as an independent contractor right from your home /office. Your job is absolutely legal. You do not need any
capital to start(non of your personal funds is needed).

REQUIREMENTS?
18 years or older.
Legally capable.
Responsible, Reliable and Trustworthy.
Ready to work 3-4 hours per week.
Able to check and respond to emails often.
Easy telephone access.

IS THIS LEGAL?
Yes it is.As a matter of fact,my lawyer checked all legal provisions to
know if there is any dosmestic or international law against businesses
or deals in this manner.And he said its allowed by all LAWS.So know that
doing this work is safe and legitimate.
I hope all is well understood. I would be glad if you accept my
proposal and I intend to commence as soon as you are ready.

Please, to facilitate the conclusion of this transaction if accepted,do
send promptly by email the following details below, to indicate your
interest.

It's really a mess of a story, the guy has the time to talk with a lawyer but not an accountant, and then somehow figures mass emailing is a faster solution to any given problem than throwing coins in a well. Also seems to think that traveller cheques can't be cashed outside of the US, which begs the question as to why they're called TRAVELLER cheques in the first place.

O, and typical nigerian understanding of english : No native speakers says things like "keep 10% to yourself", it's no a secret you're keeping.

Really quite amusing read.
