 We are a web designers/programmers team. We locate at Moscow, Russian
 Federation. Currently, our team works for several US companies and we feel
 difficulties in getting our wages.

 They're to pay us but they don't send money directly to Russia, because
 companies we work for pays us by       direct deposits available in USA and
 Canada only. Reasonable question: why don't they pay you by checks? Yes, they
 could, but here in Moscow is really hard to collect on the American checks
 (enormous commission fees and it takes 2-3 months).

 We realize that you can't provide your current bank account. So, if you are
 ready to help, would you be so kind to open a new zero-balanced checking
 account where they could send our wages.

 So, when our employers are getting the account information they will initiate
 the transfer. When the bank transfers are completed your assistance is needed
 once again to transfer the money via Western Union or Money Gram (it is not
 the best (profitable) way but it's the fastest one).
 
 Finally, we have to solve the problem regarding your interest in this deal. We
 suppose you should get an interest in this business and we can offer you a
 good compensation for your help. If you are ready to help, please, send your
 reply at the following email address webartcenter at mtu-net.ru or my personal
 e-mail mentale_mentale at mtu-net.ru.
 
 The sum is variable but usually no less than 800-2,500 a week (approx.). Any
 suggestions?

And what can I do with my bank account that your employers cannot do with
theirs?  What kind of employer can afford $10,000 per months and can't
take care of this little detail?
