Just the other day I got this message from a man named Mike Gary who apparently found me on Career Builder.com. I pose this question: Scam or not? Tell me what you think.

"My name is Mike Gary , I am the CEO & Managing Director of S&D Textile & Art Gallery Inc, We are one of the rapid developing artwork materials manufacturing company in United Kingdom. Due to the on-coming Chrismas celebration we will have to go through, a lot of customers have been contacting us saying they are interested in Ordering artworks or materials for one purpose or the other, But we've been having problem on payment with them as most of the customers we have from United State of America usually wants to pay by a US Bank Certified checks which cannot be cashed here in our bank or will take longer than expected, by this we need someone of trust and faithfulness who will recieve this Cashiers check or money orders from our customers on our behalf, cash it in a nearest cashing place or bank to them, deduct 10% which will be their service charge and send the balance to us by Western Union Money Transfer, this will not affect your present state of work as it will be a freelance working opportunity for now, We wil appreciate if you can help us in recieving the funds, if interested, Please email us with the below information."
