My employer is looking for some assistance in collecting oil samples internationally. Please see the note below. If you might be able to help us out, let me know and I will forward contact information to you.

The Petroleum Products Research Department needs assistance from English speaking family, friends, contacts living in, or staff traveling to any country outside North America. We need private individuals, not necessarily connected to any of [our] oil manufacturing clients, to procure oil samples (in 4-one quart/4-one liter or 1-gallon containers) off store shelves before February 28. All samples are required to contain one of the API Symbols on the sample label. [We] would pay the sample collector the cost of each oil (total 1 gallon or 4 lot matched one quart/one liter containers), the import/shipping cost, and a premium/bonus of $100 USD for each sample received. Sampling instructions and shipping materials and documents will be included. The deadline for purchasing samples is February 28, with shipping to proceed ASAP after purchase.

Thanks guys

This has "secret shopper" scam written all over it.

It's the real deal. I know there are some guys that come on here from Finland, so I figured I would give it a shot.
