Wed, 2010/02/10 - 15:49I recieved something along this same line but it was from a man name Kelvin and he says that he is in Ireland and owns a electronics and clothing store and is in the process of opening one up here in the us. He needs a Personal assistant for His mail and shopping. He says that he will provide all necessary funds and that I can even open the packages to confirm that they are legit. Just not sure if it is legit?
