Foriegn Company wants me to deposit Checks

[TEXASKING]

What is the name of your state? Tx

A foriegn Company has offered me a job which I would be hired as a bookkeeper and consist of me Depositing Bank Tranfers, Money Orders and checks to my bank account in return they want me to send them back all the money except 10 % which would be my payment for working for them. I stated about taxes, they told me at the end of the year all the money that was deposited would be tax exempt. Is this a legal way of doing business?

My response:

You're not actually considering this scam, are you?

"A Fool And His Money Are Soon Parted"

Do you have any idea how many times people have come here asking for help when it comes to this, and other similar, scams? By that time, there's no help. You see, the checks are forgeries; but, by the time your bank tells you, you've already sent the money to the Scam Nigerian company - and guess who's left holding the bag with their bank? You, dummy!!

Ask yourself - - why do they need you when there are millions of legitimate CPA's and Accountants in this country.

Good luck.
