This project has been developed in a way not to affect your present job nor bring you any form of stress but in order to help take care of those extra costs  it came to my knowledge that there are a lot of lapses in handling funds that come in from the states which come in forms of cashiers checks, company checks and money orders and are not readily cash able outside the United States and some sent mails that do not delivered due to lapses in courier services, So we need someone in the States to work as our representative and assist us in processing the payments from our various clients which come in on a weekly, monthly and annual basis. This is why we decided to get a representative over in the states to help us pick up our payments at your contact address you shall be providing us, in order to process our payment from our clients.
