Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Texas

Electronic Pay Service

I was being contacted by group of people by e mail that they want to send money via checks in my name I have to cash this money and transfer it via Western Union to any international locations they send me. They told me it is legal, as I will pay taxes on my commission. I need to know if it is legal, I don�t want be a part of money laundry. If it is legal what is the limit that I can transfer legally. As per western Union if I transfer under $1000. I don�t have to give any I.D while transferring the money. Will you advise if this whole thing is legal, if it is how I will protect my legal rights.

At best it's money laundering. At worst it's a scam that'll take you good because the checks are counterfeit.
