I received this in my e-mail a bit ago. Obviously a scam, but it seems innocuous enough, that I thought I'd post it as a warning.

Hello!
I am Steve Owen. I am the Managing Director of Tesano Textiles Limited, a company based in Ghana Africa. Our company deals in African Prints, textile, and fabrics.
We have operations located in one other West African country. We also have clients in parts of Europe, U.S.A, Canada and Asia. We always ship products to our clients first and then they send payment afterwards. Online sale of our products and online payment is not possible either because paypal and credit cards processing, etc don't exist in this region as of now. Furthermore processing cheque and wire transfer payments form foreign countries takes too long a time here and this affects our cash inflow negatively.
As an individual person, Would you like to act as our receiver agent in your country on a part-time basis. I assure you there is no stress involved here and you can earn extra cash on the side. As our agent all you have to do is receive payments on our behalf from our clients within your country and send cash to us. This method cuts the time we recieve payment and saves us a lot of money.
Please note; you are not paying for anything here and no one is asking you for any money nor banking information. We only require your honesty and reliability. Also you must be currently employed.
You shall receive payments (usually money orders) via secure mail. For rendering this valuable service you get to keep 10% of any payment you receive on our behalf. The rest of the money (90%), you shall send to us as cash following the payment instructions set by us.
Whenever there is payment to be made by any client we can send your name as our agent. You will be notified when the payment arrives via mail so you will be available to receive it and await further intructions on sending our share of the money. Average weekly payments is between 2 to 5 thousand dollars. If you are interested in this deal, Send me your full names, and private mobile phone number.
