Employment Opportunity

[lph]

Oh Zen. Really. Here is opportunity knocking on your door - no, POUNDING on your door - and you turn it down?? You are so sceptical. I swear, you are NEVER going to get a, umm, "international expatriate official job" that way.

yes, CC, you can weasel them. Go to that link Alpine Rabbit has provided. There are lots of great stories of people who have responded to these emails and even profited! (by scamming the scammers.) it's hilarious. On the other hand, so many people ARE scammed by these people.
anyway; check out that link. There's more like it too.

OK, you talked me into it!
After all-

"Your name has been shortlisted/Chosen among the Lucky expatriates"

Shortlisted!
Lucky!
What could possibly go wrong?

When I tried to sell my car on the internet, I got lot of scammers. After a while I just deleted the messages without reading them.

I can't tell you how many times I have had this exact same email come in to my spam. Interesting that they refer to you as "Dearest One" though
