Spring Work on Computer. Work ID:14B46BN

It's another money laundering scam opportunity. Do people really fall for these 'opportunities' believing them to be true, or is it students and the likes who just close their eyes to what they are up to and keep their fingers crossed that the authorities never catch up with them? Don't respond to anything like this - they aren't honest and you might end up in a lot of trouble.

Email | GET BACK TO US ASAP.

And at the same time as the fake lottery, there's also the job offer for money laundering....

Don't ever reply to these. If you get involved then at best you are assisting criminals with money laundering. At worst you could have your identity stolen, have your bank accounts emptied or end up in prison. It's not worth the risk. No honest company would recruit by sending spam.

Here's the email:

Emma Stokes | New work for you

There was a warning on the radio today from the local trading standards about email offers such as this. Aparently they are starting a big push to make sure that locals aren't falling for the scams.

Anyway, here's another 'easy money' / 'make me rich quick' scam. $3,000 per month for just a couple of hours' work - not very likely. And why through a free email account to an email address that only ever receives spam...

Don't trust it - you will get hurt. Here's the content:

Major Reeves | Better job for you

This is another one that's identical to the Trevor Varner email, just using a different email address as the sender and this time it's got a subject.

This one arrived at a different email address to the earlier email.

Trevor Varner | EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES

Trevor Varner Murphy Consulting Services EmailHere's one that I'll flag as potentially phishing / fraud, although it can't be proven.

But how many respectable companies send unsolicitored job offers via spam lists? No doubt it will be money laundering, parcel forwarding or other equally illegal activities.

My advice is to just delete the email. If it was genuine, the reply email address would be at the company concerned, not a gmail address.

Here's the content, probably best viewed in the image version

Everything Is Possible - version 2

Another version of the Everything Is Possible has just arrived in my inbox. This time the email does not have a subject, just "re:".

The other difference is that in the second email the sender has not hidden the email address with a realistic one (that is one that would appear to be from the company concerned), but instead used what might be their own email or what might be another innocent victim. I expect that by using a real email in the from: field the first time the company concerned has received lots of bounced emails. They would then know about the con and be able to complain to the person meant to receive the emails and also their email provider. Not the cleverest move!!!

But having received this over a few different email addresses, this is obviously a prolific email, so could be hitting loads of people.

Everything is possible

Here's a new one for this site. I've just received a job offer - wasn't looking for more work, but never mind! It's looking for someone to work in the UK, but asks for a Zip code. The company named DOES exist, but I suspect they are an innocent third party and don't know about these emails.

The company's website looks professional and lists email addresses within the domain, whereas this email gives reply addresses within a Google mail account. There's no reason for a company with a good website and email addresses to do that. I have therefore (hopefully) removed all references to the mentioned company.

What exactly the scam will be I don't know. It's probably the type where they send a cheque, your forward the money as an electronic transfer, then the cheque bounces...

Here's the email.
