what do you think of this "job"

[sixf00t4]

got this in an email while looking for a new job i actually find it a little amusing, wonder if this is erally legit? not too shabby. may need to talk to a lawyer about this one. here is the email they sent me and here is the contract.

it is basically acting as a middle man for someone else...they say they buy stuff from dell, compaq, etc and ship it to you. then you ship it to them. they say it is cuz they cant get stuff like that where they are. not bad pay. $2,000 upfront to cover expenses.

Just seems fishy to me. Why can't they ship it themselves?

Tell you what though, if you get hooked up and it's legit, let me know.

just from reading how you described it. it sounds like a credit card scam. but the fact you were getting paid (right?) makes it sound diffrent.
the way i knew that it worked was. they steal credit card numbers. buy stuff. have it shiped to you. then you ship it to them. most of the time they claim to be in some forgin country that the stores wont ship to.
but as i said most of the time there is no payment other then merchendise for you.
like, they order 5 laptops. you send them 4.

Does it cost any money upfront?

If yes, it's a scam. End of discussion.

Could always do the Quixtar thing.

explain the steps of Quixtar.

OuT: you get paid 2 grand upfront. so there goes that theory.

PAYMENT: We arrange payment at end of first probation month of work (30 days)

So IOW you have to foot the bill for the first 30 days. Looks like scam to me. Especially if that bill can be as high as $2,000.00!

2k$ upfront? They give it to you? Actually send you the bucks?
You gotta be s-ing me---
