ask him whats he proposing

 

[Battousai]

Ask the guy if we will get Sith cookies if we join him for whatever it is.

Alright. We got a reply when I emailed him back.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to explain. I am the Project Manager at [REDACTED] Pharmaceutical. [REDACTED LINK] came across your email while searching for a friend and decided to reach out to you to see if you might be interested.

I am searching for a trustworthy entrepreneur/individual to represent my company in the sourcing of some of our basic raw materials used in the manufacturing of high-quality antivirus vaccines and cancer-cure.

We lost our previous supplier for these materials, which has hindered our production and research. Fortunately, I have connected with a local farmer who can supply the product we need.
However, I require an intermediary to facilitate the Procurement from the farmer and supply it to our company, with profits being shared.

The product we need is Echinacea oil (BY127), a rare and scarce oil that is not widely known. BY127 has proven to be effective in cancer treatment and tuberculosis cure and is a crucial raw material for many life-saving drugs. The oil is derived from rare organic plants that are carefully cultivated under optimal environmental conditions.

Your role in this project will be to act as a local seller, supplying the oil BY127 to our company at a rate of USD21,000 per barrel or lower. This will be more attractive to our company director compared to the previous rate of USD23,000 per barrel.

The local farmer is offering the oil at a significantly cheaper rate of USD9,000 per barrel. You will get the product from the farmer at this lower rate and supply it to our company at the lesser rate we were buying from our previous supplier. This arrangement is both convenient and profitable, with a profit of USD12,000 per barrel. We typically purchase between 700 and 1,000 barrels, resulting in profits of Nine to twelve million dollars. Our company also pays 50% of the total cost in advance.

If we agree on the profit sharing, I will provide you with more information and direct you to the Chief Procurement Officer (CPO). We will also draft a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to formalize our agreement.

Please let me know if you have any questions or if there is anything else you would like to discuss.

Thank you,

Alfred

@Battousai Still think we should ask him for Sith cookies?

[Vendor-Lazarus]

Obvious scam is obvious.

 

[Battousai]

Alright. We got a reply when I emailed him back.



@Battousai Still think we should ask him for Sith cookies?

The only reason to join the darkside is for the Sith cookies, if he doesn't have them then this deal is pointless.

 

[gaijinkaiju]

Sounds like one of the many scams Atomic Shrimp has scambaited

Anyway, you should haggle the money up higher

I sent them the following response.

I'm afraid the price doesn't seem acceptable for the work and time involved. You know, I have to store the barrels and sell them according to regulations and government paperwork. I'm clearly taking all the risk here and echinacea oil just doesn't move off the shelves like it used to. I want USD500,000 per barrel. There is also a startling lack of Sith cookies in your offer. This is not proper business tradition according to the Wakovia Accords.
