I notice the name Alexey Kernel mentioned. Three new fake job domains registered in the past couple of days to the fake "Alexey Kernel" registrant. Fake employment: unionhire.net, wugcareer.com and wugoffers.net.

Another fake job domain where the scammers seem to have shifted to a new target - Canada. The domain is careers-canada.com, registered only very recently to the fictitious "Alexey Kernel" in the Ukraine.

The standard approach with these scammers is to spoof an email "from" the target's email address (don't worry if you see this, your email account has not been compromised) and the emails offer a variety of illegal jobs including money laundering. It forms part of this long-running scam.

The domain registrant details are fake:
