Zomg Job Offer!

Been getting some random e-mails lately from recruiting firms and stuff, I expect from my monster profile. Got this one today in my inbox:

-Am Dr Name withheld from Company in England and We are glad to offer you a job position with our company. We need someone to work for the company as a Representative/Book keeper in the USA or Canada. This is in view of our not having an office presently in that part of the world. You don't need to have an Office and this certainly won't disturb any form of job you do at the moment.
We source the following variety of clothing materials:-batiks, assorted fabrics for interior decor, silk and traditional costumes which we have clients we supply weekly in the USA.Presently with the amount of Orders we have, we cannot put them on hold for fear of loosing the customers outrightly.
It's a known fact,that it's not easy to start a business in a new market (being the US/Canada). 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 would push up sales by 25 percent. Unfortunately we are unable to open Bank Accounts in the US without first registering the company name.
Secondly we cannot cash these payments from the US soon enough, as international Cheques take about 15-20 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.Your task is to coordinate payments from customers and help us with the payment process.You are not involved in any sales or marketing.Once orders are received and sorted we deliver the product to a customer.The customer receives and inspects 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 Certified Cheques so We decided to open this new job position for solving this problem.Your tasks are:
1. Receive payment from Customers.
2. Cash Payments at your Bank (Upon my instruction).
3. Deduct $300 which will be your commission/pay on each Payment processed
4. Forward balance after deduction of commission/pay to any of the offices you will be contacted to send payment to.(Payment is to forwarded by Western Union Money Transfer).
NOTE: Some of our customers also wishes to pay via wire transfer to a Bank of America Account or Wells Fargo OR let me know your bank . If you have an account with them, pls signify as that will more useful and the wages for that is $100 more.

But the problem we have is trust, But we have our way of getting anyone that gets away with our money, I mean the IRS and Secrect Service branch in Washington gets involve.
Our payments will be issued out in your name and you can have them cashed at your bank or other Cashing Services.Deduct your commission and forward the balance to the company . If you are interested, N: B, Please send to me the listed information below:
#Your full name
#Your full mailing/home address
#Your age
#Occupation
#marital status
#Home/Cell Number
#Your Bank name Only.
Reply E-mail address withheld
Thanks for your anticipated action and we hope to hear back from you.

sounds like the potential for another one of those nigerian scams as by how the writing is composed.
the suttle typos give me alarm signals. Most professionals use spell checking.

yeah no offense, but something about it screamed "scam" to me.

But if it is a genuine offer, congrats..

I really think it sounds super sketch though.

might be a scam, but definitely illegal. i forget the term used for these 'deals' (learned about them when i worked for ebay)

do what you will, at your own risk.
