This nasty little fake job scam targeting Australians came to my attention via a local newspaper.

After making an enquiry via a safely anonymous email address the scammer then sent this typical Payment Representative script shown below. As a bank acount has been requested, there is a strong likelyhood that this scammer will attempt to flash the victims' bank account.

An update on this scam.

This particular lowlife criminal scum has quiet a good grasp on the English language, which makes him more likely to succeed in ripping off innocent people who are genuinely looking for work. The latest missive introduces another theiving character named Greg Lambert [email protected] , though in all liklihood this will be the same scammer. More importantly it appears he may have a landline phone account in the USA. This is most unusual as any given worthless criminal does not like to be traced. Perhaps he feels safe giving this number out to his target base in an entirely different country.
