This is a Company Representative Payment Scam. You will be sent fraudulent cheques or Money Orders, which you will be asked to cash and send the money (minus your 10%) to someone by Western Union. The cheques will eventually be found to be fraudulent by the bank and the money will be debited from your account. If you get involved with these scammers, you will lose money and may also face investigation for fraud.

I have been in touch with the real "Skoon Art Cafe" about their good name being used in this scam.

They tell me that they are getting hundreds of emails from people who get in touch through their website to check if the offer is genuine. At least this gives them a chance explain it isn't.

They have posted a statement onto their contact page to try to warn people not to respond to the fraudulent attempt to obtain information.

The Skoon Art Cafe website, (Contact Page) contains the following message:-

Note: our business details have recently been used in a scam originating in the Far East. We are not looking for staff and please ignore any emails asking for personal details allegedly on our behalf


(Thank you "Mr Skoon")
