Welcome to Scamwarners eiffel04.

'HannahsDad' is absolutely correct in labelling it a scam and you won't get anything but a scam offer from them.

The style of English is West African/legal/absurd :lol:

I appreciate that it's not easy to spot if you haven't seen as many as we do, or if English isn't your main language but just reading the e-mail shows it to be a scam. This is aside from the fact the job itself is a thinly disguised attempt to make you cash counterfeit cheques for a thief.

Annual stock options
:lol:

The Parties acknowledge the legal force of documents' records received via communication channels equal and as effective as the documents made in writing.


The problem is that if you attempt to write in a legal format in English, if you aren't legally trained, it comes out as garbled nonsense and exposes itself as being written by an idiot.

CAR ADVERTS - If a car seller mentions escrow - he's scamming you Never ever for any reason pay anything until you have seen and inspected the vehicle

^More like annual pillory options :D

Could you post the complete email headers? There's nothing on the website yet; the headers should enable us to kill the domain before the scammers put a website up.

Thanks! It looks like Adalta (which uses the same application, except for Australians) is run by the same gang as Hardin. Hopefully both domains will be shut down soon.
