Consultant Berhad Malaysia review: Sending scam emails 1

Dear sir,
I have a friend working with Petronas in Malaysia. He said his client is sending him money from the States since he is an American citizen. He asked my permission to use my account to transfer his money and I agree to help him. A few days later l recieved an email claiming that she was the agent who is helping to make the transaction..My doubt is, I found that all the email look fake. One of the staff calling me and asking me to pay for the tax...The emails are as below:
