I had responded to a work from home advertisement on Monster.com to a UK based company and eventually received an email from a Mr John Buckley at Lorimex watches, which reads as follows:
Dear Prospective Employee,
The job we are offering is very easy to handle and it will not take more then 2 hours of your daily time. Your position with our company will be of a regional financial manager. In order to start working with us, you need to have or be willing to open an

The products we are selling are luxury wrist watches. The clients will receive the products they order in exchange of their funds.
I signed the Employment Agreement.
While withdrawing the first transaction on behalf of Lorimex Watches Ltd at the nominated partner bank I was taken aside to a private office by the Bank Manager whereby I was informed by the banks fraud department after answering a few questions that I was being used in fraudulent activities.
I have since handed my Employment Contract & all communication to the Federal Police who are investigating.
