to this regard we will want you to act as our Agent in your province.

Our constraints has always been the method of payment by several of our foreign clients who we supply these steel products.
We presently get our payments through checks and bank drafts in our favour by our client but we experience the delay in getting these
payments from our clients and these payments takes a very long period to clear at our local banks.

We normally encounter loss of funds by doing this as most of these payments are procured as short-term loans and overdrafts from banks
with high interest rates.It is as a result of this we decided to search for competent and reliable individuals/company who will act as our
representative in your province in dealing with our clients as well as helping us process these payments which will be made to you by our
clients in your province. Also be informed that our clients are already aware of this, as we need these funds to make new
installments/Shippments, as our clients will make these payments directly to you. We wish to re-affirm our earlier offer of 10% of any
amount made to you by our client in your province.Hope you are to be our good business partner in near future.

I await your prompt response.
Regards,
Mr. Han Li.

It's a fairly standard check scam. They send the the vic a fake check, the vic banks it. The funds appear in the vics bank account, but the check hasn't actually cleared. They send the 10% on to the scammer. Maybe 1-2 weeks later the check bounces and the vic gets into trouble.
