SCAM ALERT

I received this email today and want to pass this information along to as many people as I can. This is NOT a legitimate job offer - this is a SCAM. These people want you to take fake checks and money orders, cash them at your bank and keep a percentage. They will get the money, the checks will be found out as fakes and it will be YOU who will be in trouble and out a lot of money. I've seen people on various auction sites be the victim to this scam by taking fake money orders for goods and returning change. I know when times get hard and we need extra money we can get a bit desperate to do things that sound good, but please do not fall for this scam! If anyone EVER asks you to cash a check for them and keep a percentage, DO NOT do it!

Here is the email I received:
