Scam emails: T and B International Limited, a Burns textile company, Tony Burns

Scam Business Proposals
Example - Scam emails: T & B International Limited, a Burns textile company, Tony Burns

The T and B scam is just another of the counterfeit check cashing scam.  They'll mail fake checks to you, you deposit them in you bank account and then send them a money gram BEFORE the checks clear the bank. They take the money and you're left with a debt to your bank for the check that didn't clear, and possibly a criminal charge for passing a counterfeit check.

One obvious clue is there is not a legitimate company in the world (with ANY sense) that would use a free Yahoo email account as their contact email.  Anyone can get a free email account like that.

Note clues highlighted in yellow, such as an unprofessional level of misspellings, poor grammar and punctuation, etc.  and in this case, they're openly suggesting that you help them evade their legal tax burden by passing the money via an individual account (a form of money laundering).
