So. Searching on Craigslist for a job (I know, stupid me...I'm taking precautions though), and I see an interesting one. The title is Game Network hiring/designers needed/chat sup (Mytown), and the contents contain the following:
Soooo, I sent them a "resume" with an alternate e-mail to test the waters...it did have my qualifications, just a little befuddled for no personal info. I said in all honesty that I wasn't sure I was qualified, and I got this in reply.
The link led to, yes, a game download...however, the company doing this game, MightyMagoo, is known for installing malware and viruses on machines. They deny it, naturally. Needless to say I did not install the "game" as I don't have any desires to infect my computer.
