Hello,
I am writing in response to your interest . You will work from home for only 1 to 2 hour per day for a basic wages of $600/week.
I am Bryana Presendieu a Successful Entrepreneur, investor and a research journalist .I travel a lot, within and outside the US working on various independent projects, this is why I need an CUSTOMER REPRESENTATIVE, to keep up with all of my activities especially when i travel abroad.Please note that you are being hired only on a personal level. All correspondences would be made and promptly reported to me personally. The position is part time and home-based meaning you can work most times from your home as long as you have a regular internet access.You are also hired on a trial basis for now until we are able to see how well we fit in, this however does not affect your weekly wage.Most of your activities will be carried out locally and most official packages will be delivered via posts. You will be actively involved in my personal,business and financial life. In summary, your activities as my assistant amongst other things will include;
* A personal reminder for Schedules, programs, flights and keeping me
up to date with them as they come up;
* Carrying out specific projects and research;
* Making regular contacts and drop-offs on my behalf.
* Handling and monitoring financial activities.
* Processing and taking charge of weekly payments and purchases.
* General clerical activities.
Basic wage is $600/week. Any extra personal expenses (transport,gas, etc) incurred by you while on an errand or otherwise will also be reimbursed by me at the end of each working Month.This position is very flexible and it is difficult judging the exact number of hours you will be doing,just bear it in mind that there will be busier weeks than others with a steady pay. Working with me is basically about instructions and following them .
There is also a very sensitive issue on trust, dedication and accountability which I believe will resolve itself as time goes on.This is only an introductory e-mail, as time goes on we should be able to arrange a proper meeting to get things started officially. I am currently in Canada, for business .However, I do have a number of work you can get done, prior to my arrival. Due to the excessive number of responses to my Ad, do provide the following details about yourself for my personal record update and to filter applicants;
Your Full Name:
Street Address: ( Not PO. BOX )
Apartment Number: ( IF ANY )
City: State:
Zip Code:
Country:
Cell/Home phone number:
Present working Status:
E-mail Address:
I hope you can be available for me immediately before I arrive, it certainly can act as a stable foundation to our impending working relationship.
Regards,
Bryana Presendieu
Sounds just like the last one I received huh?? This is really sad. I'm not even going to respond to this one...
