          "Romad Financial Services Pty. Ltd.
          94 Woodhouse Grove, Box Hill North,
          VIC, 3129, Australia


          Hello,
          my name is John Alison and I am Romad Financial Services Pty. Ltd. Staff manager. We have found and reviewed your CV at hotonline.com and decided to offer this job to you.

          Our services
          When buying-selling operations via the Internet are concerned, the buyer and the seller don’t know each other and are placed in different corners of the world. Therefore, it is important both to the buyer and the seller for their transaction to be made safely. Payment Protection means receiving money, documents, goods (it might be both the seller’s and the buyer’s) concerning the transaction by a reliable, experienced, impartial person - our Payment Protection agent. The agent will hold all the money and documents until all the terms of the deal are satisfied and only then release them to the intended receiver. Please, visit our web-site for more information. (Romad Financial Services – Box Hill North - Australia)


          Why we need Payment Protection agents
          Having a Payment Protection agent in every country we can quickly transfer funds inside a country without wasting time on the international bank transfers, and continue our rapid growth rather than overwhelming our own bank account with inbound and outbound transactions leading to severe hold times and possible service interruption. It is time that is of significant importance to our clients.


          Career and Benefits
          Your main task will be receiving money transactions to any bank account you would like to use for the purposes of this job; and then forwarding these transactions to the next party of the Payment Protection process according to our instructions. You will benefit from the commissions, which are 5-7% of each transaction and depend on the quantity of the completed transactions and the speed of your work. Besides, you will be paid a basic salary of 1500 GBP per month.


          For your convenience there will be no paychecks, your commission will remain in your account after every successfully completed transaction. The money transfer fee is not included in your commission, meaning that you will deduct it from the received amount, not from your commission. Also you receive 5-7% of the transaction amount. Normally the amounts that we process vary from 2,000 GBP to 10,000 GBP, but can go higher on special occasions.


          Job details
          As the financial activity in your area is not too high, a Payment Protection agent will be processing approximately 1-2 transactions per week. Each transaction requires approximately 4-5 hours of the agent work. Our manager always calls the agent beforehand to provide all the instructions. Therefore, with the due time management, the agent is able to combine this job with other activities (e.g. primary job or studies).


          If you are ready to proceed, please provide your AVAILABLE phone number to our hiring manager (Charles McAlister) at hiring@rom***inancial.com

          Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need more information.

          --
          Sincerely yours,
          John Alison,
