In case of company expansion we are looking for employees for manager position. We are looking for responsible, initiative employees, who can take decisions for solving problems in Australia . During our cooperation we prefer e-mail as a means of communication.
Reduction of tax rate implement by means of personalizing of money transfer. Cash asserts are divided into minor sums and transfer to personal accounts. This is the process of personalizing of money transfer.

After receiving the money on your account, you have to resend it though Western Union , MoneyGram or International Bank WIRE to our agents. They are also private persons. This transfer is not going to be taxed, because this is private transfer.
The first 3 weeks are probation period. During this time, you have to accept money from our partners on your account and resend it though WE, MG, TRAVELEX of SWIFT etc. After this period you would join our team and we will send you all necessary documents.
We offer you 5 % from initial transfer for your service. It will take 1-2 hours of your time per day. Sum of money transfers would be from 1 000 to 5 000 AUD.

We are not asking to do any fees. All expenses would be covered by our side. This job is legal. You can use any account (your personal account or open a new account with 0 balances, just for operating with us).
After receiving your personal info, it will be kept safely and very soon you will receive notice about the first transfer to your account.
After that, follow the instructions.
P.S. We will advise you to leave your mobile #, if we need to find you quick.
Instructions :
Sending your personal details, thereby you accept cooperation with us.
You have to check your e-mail box in the morning (usually notice about the transfer would be at 8 o’clock in the morning at your e-mail box). Also check your mobile phone, because usually we send sms as well as e-mail.
After receiving notice – check you bank account. Sometimes it can be some bank delays (hours or even days).
After completing p. 1 and p. 2 you have to write down e-mail to us, if the money is already on your account and note the exact sum.
After this you have to go to any bank office or using ATM for withdraws the money. (Bank offices start working at 9-30)
From this sum you should take your 5%.
Ex. You receive 5000$. 5% form the 5000$ =250$.
250$ – this is your part.
5000$ – 5% (250$) = 4750$.
6. The rest of the money you have to resend to our representative, just paying for the Western Union service (fee) from this money as well. Ex. 4750$ – Western Union fee = the rest you have to send.

| Sounds like a classic money laundering scam | Jul 29, 2009 |
Actually, you might earn some money on jobs like this.
That is.....
....until the police finds you. This a typical money laundering scam.
They need to use your account to receive money and they want you to send the money using Western Union (untraceable). When the authorities start to investigate where the stolen/drug money disappeared, they find you account. Guess who's door their going to knock on.

I have always wondered why governments allow for a "bank" with untraceable transactions to exist. Could it be that the governments, too, get a slice of the pie?

PERSONA QUE INICIÓ LA HEBRA | The government does not condone this | Jul 29, 2009 |
I have to inform you that the Australian government has no part in this. I have informed the Australian anti-fraud agency to be aware of this.
Please do not be despicable of Australia. Only some individuals (a minority) in Australia is worth of this despise.

Who said anything about Australia? I used the term "governments", and it is in plural form, too. Western Union exists in Canada, too. In fact, I just discovered one inside a grocery store (!) yesterday.
If Western Union is used for so many scams, why do governments allow it to exist, or allow it to conduct undocumented transactions? Don't you think it's a bit fishy, especially considering the amounts governments invest each year into fighting that fraud? Now, consider how many people use Western Union for fiscal evasion. Funny that governments don't seem to mind that their money gets stolen...
