Dear Sir/Ma,
Please permit me to write you irrespective of the fact we have not met
before. I got your contact through network online hence I decided to
write you. I would be very interested in offering you a part-time
paying job in which you could earn a lot. Getting an accountant in the states
or opening an account would have been my best choice but I have a
deadline to meet and taking any of those choices would cost me time
and a whole lot of other requirements,which I am not ready to deal with.
That is where i need your assistant and service. APPLICATION FORM is added
to this email which you will complete and send back to us to enable us
register your application. Below are the details of the job and your
application form.


Oceanic Fabrics run an arts gallery in the UK and China and we need someone to
work for the company as a representative/Account Officer in United
States. The company deals in the sale of Art and Craft works,
sculptures and carvings, antique and produces various fabrics materials, batiks,
assorted fabrics and various traditional costumes from all over the
world and we have clients we supply weekly in the United States.

You can do the Work easily without leaving or affecting your present
Job.
You have a strong possibility to become managers if you are Honest and
hard working.

WHY WE NEED YOU
The reason why we need you is mainly owing to the fact that when we
supply samples or large quantities of Products and payments are
issued out in the form of Certified Official US Checks, it takes a minimum of
25 banking days for the payments to clear into our accounts here in the
UK; this greatly slows down our working capital and incentives, It
also slow down our full financial capacity, because we also have to make
payments to the sources of the materials.

JOB DESCRIPTION

payments shall come in the form of Certified US Official Checks
(B) Cash such payments at your local Bank
