Company Representative scams, Payment Processing scams and other Employment scams.
by Diamond Tue Jun 25, 2013 3:47 pm
After some time without scam emails, I received two at once today, both very similar and most probably sent by the same scammer. They pretend to represent a bank this time! However, lack of any information, names, phones, work from home, strange email addresses and bad English give them away.

The first one:

Hello XXX XXXXX !
An affiliate of Meta Bank is hiring for business mail registrator. This at home position requires internet access. Accounting skills are not required. Potential candidates will be expected to be of full legal age and possess United States valid physical address in order to apply. Applicant has a sense of timeliness and stringency, has ability to work independently, communicate effectively with all company levels.

If you're looking for a part-time, home-based job which will require only 1 hour on a daily base - feel free to contact with your information, such as: First and Last names and e-mail if different from this one. Our representatives will contact with you shortly.

The second one I will post just in case, as it's very similar, but not exactly the same.

Got two more scam emails mentioning the same "Meta Bank". They're different, but I'll post only one. Of course, once again bad English and lack of any contact information or even the sender's name speak for themselves...
