Best Answer

Well known work at home scams include any offer where a third party claims to be out of the country, and forwards you merchandise to forward to another address. They would be paying you in cashiers cheques or money orders that would later bounce, leaving you responsible for the funds. The merchandise in question would likely be purchased using stolen credit cards and they would be having you operate as a middleman for the goods.
