Mongodump - command not found when executing dump

I'm trying to create a backup of my database using Mongodump. The problem is that every time i execute the dump, i get the following error:

--collection: command not found

Here is the command:

mongodump --uri=MYURI --collection TEST-COL --gzip --out=/var/backups/testbackup

I'm using linux, while on windows the same command seems to work. Any advice?

The URI is a connection string, must be wrap with double quotes ("").

--uri=<connectionString>
