Hi I have received the same one, I edited the text and now am supposed to be owed £68. In order to get this money he wants me to email my bank details and claims that dealings with foreigers whom require russian services like car hire, vacations, wedding planning need bank details to pay the fees to. Then you the go betweener transfer the money to his company. This appears to be a major scam. I am currently reporting it.

I would try typing the company name into Google and seeing if anything comes up. From my experience however a lot of job offers that come through the e-mail like that are usually scams. If they guarantee you can work low hours if you want and still make a lot of cash, ask for your banking information or other personal information I wouldn't respond. Good luck with it though and hopefully it will turn out to be legit....

Never heard of it, but that doesn't mean anything.

Any time I get an email solicitation like that, I ask myself if it passes the smell test. Many do, so if it smells ok, then I do some more research. I look up the better business bureau (BBB) to find out if there are any comlaints lodged against the company. After that, I give a phone call. Just remember this: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

I have received job offers which, after doing my research, I ran a thousand miles away from because they did not sound legitimate. Use your common sense as you investigate. Don't let yourself be scammed. Just remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Good luck, and safe job hunting.
