Hi there!
I received this e-mail a couple days ago.
The header made it appear that it was from careerbuilder which I had been frequenting, although I had not applied to this job.
I unwisely sent my resume and references, and received the 2nd e-mail as a response. The 2nd response included an application, a FAQ sheet and a job description, all that indicated there would be no investment, contract or money transfer on my end.
I called the phone number, and a woman answered in another language. I visited the website which looks somewhat legitimate, but has some English errors.
I can't find any information about the company outside of the website.
It seems too good to be true!! Help!
