This is obviously fake, as shown by the redirect phone number, grammar, and common phrase in this kind of scam, but what's the site?

It was obvious by the 3rd line that the person behind that email is NOT Canadian. The writing tells me that the author is African. The whole scenario and message it is textbook scam.

There is nothing whatsoever legitimate about this "job." It is an attempt to recruit a mule to receive stolen money and convert it to cash or objects for the scammer.

The only thing you have to gain from it is a prison sentence.

Just cut off all contact with this scammer. Don't point him here or tell him what he did wrong--that only helps him to become a better scammer.
