Was that how you connected it ?
Any chance you have a link to the Craigslist add, or a copy of the posted text?. They adds are difficult to locate because they are generic management positions and never make reference to the name of the company until after you respond. Having the text of the Craigslist posting will enable key word searches to look for others.

NOTE: careerbuilder.com, Monster.com, et all, by default allow cyber criminals to obtain employer accounts. (All you need is a credit card, anyone's will do) An Employer account gives criminals access to entire databases of job seeker resumes. This enables career criminals and organized crime syndicates to target job hunters, and solicit them.
DO NOT ASSUME, that because an email from a prospective employer comes via Careerbuilder, or monster's system, that it in any way confirms legitimacy. Careerbuilder's and Montser's systems are wide open for anyone to join as an employer. No distinction is made between criminals, scammers, and legitimate employers. That burden is left to the prospective employee to do.
From Harry Wong harrywong@hongkongsolutions.com
In this email I will explain you about this job offer.
Also I forward you our Instructions, FAQ and Agreement. Use Adobe Acrobat Reader to view the above files. If you do not have this software on your computer, please go to >http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html and download the program for free.
Our company enters the american market now because almost all online business are located in the USA. So we have to search managers in the USA to create our subsidiaries.
Our Marketing Department has developed a perfect idea to boost sales. The idea is to have more subsidiaries that would resell our items (iPhone themes,PocketPC themes, Mobile themes, wallpapers, games etc). The more subsidiaries we have the more things we sell and our profit grows accordingly.
Your mission in the project is to create business tools (registering a business, setting up business and merchant bank accounts) and it is for these services that you will be paid.
Hong Kong Solutions, Inc creates a web-site (online store or subsidiary another words) which will sell our products. The work of this web site is impossible without a company and that's why your first step will be the opening of company (the company may be registered as a Corporation, LLC, Sole Proprietorship or other business entity).
If you already have a company, it's great and will make the start up yet faster. Next you open bank business and merchant account and Gateway on Authorize.net.
Your commission will be 10 percent from all the sales (you'll earn about 4000-5000$ a month). Also all bank and merchant fees will be paid by our company. You will get your 10 percent in any case not depending what fees we will have. Your income will increase as the business progresses.
About the taxes: The taxes in this kind of business we will need to pay only in starting the 2nd year. US taxes are not conventional; is one makes more than a certain amount of $ in a year through a corporation, they need to pay taxes every three months. This is called Estimated Quarterly Taxes. In our situation, these aren't paid the first year, only starting the 2nd year. All taxes will be go through your company but you will take the necessary funds from our part when it's time to pay for taxes. So our company will pay all taxes not you. Since what we sell isn't tangible (can't be touched), we don't file Sales tax. Only thing we pay is income tax, to the federal governement.
If you are interested please send me the signed agreement (I sent you it. did you get it?) or via email or via fax (206)339-1058.
If you have any questions else please ask me.

quote: SCAM:
Yes, it is - www.hongkongsolutions.com - a website and SEO company. I received a "business offer" from them too. I think they saw my resume on Monster or Careerbuilder. In a nutshell they say you'll make about 50K a year simply by starting an S-Corp and opening-up some kind of online store so they can run their US sales through it. 50K for basically doing nothing sounded fishy. I've got a lot more info in saved emails from "Harry" (if that's his real name) who is with Hong Kong Solutions. If anyone wants to see them let me know...
