"I am an artist.I live in UNITED KINGDOM,with my two kids, four cats, one dog and the love of my life. It is definitely a full house. I have been doing artwork since I was a small child. That gives me about 23 years of experience. I majored in art in high school and took a few college art courses. Most of my work is done in either pencil or airbrush mixed with color pencils. I have recently added designing and creating artwork on the computer. I have been selling my art for the last 3 years and have had my work featured on trading cards, prints and in magazines.I have sold in galleries and to private collectors from all around the world.I am always facing serious difficulties when it comes to selling my art works to Americans,they are always offering to pay with a US POSTAL MONEY ORDER,which is difficult for me to cash here in UNITED KINGDOM. I am looking for a representative in the states who will be working for me as a partime worker and i will be willing to pay %10 for every transaction,which wouldnt affect ur present state of work,someone who would help me recieve payments from my customers in the states.i mean someone that is responsible and reliable,because the cost of coming to the state and getting payments is very expensive,i am working on setting up a branch in the state,so for now i need a representative in the united state who will be handling the payment aspect. These payments are in money order and they would come to you in your name, so all you need do is cash the money order deduct your percentage and wire the rest back. But the problem i have is trust,But i have my way of getting anyone that gets away with our money,i mean the FBI branch in Washington gets involve. It wouldnt cost youu any amount,you are to receive payments which will be sent to u by post from my business patners, which would come in form of a money order then u are to cash it at your bank and send the cash to me via western union money transfer all western union charges will be deducted from the money. If you are interested,please get back to me as soon as possible."

Well it is a good thing he went to the internet and placed his trust in a completely random person.

I hope you're joking about this. This is a very common scam.
All the scams you see have the same principle, they all use money orders.
from what i heard these money orders are fake but when you take it to the bank they will cash it, then of course you think its real so you send them part of the cash and keep the rest.
Then a few days later the bank tells you the money order is no good and they hold you responsible and charge your account for the whole amount.
