Sorry for using Gmail address for communication, the company e-mail address will be provided once you reply to this letter.

Note the \'being picked at random\' CV ploy, the odd apology for using gmail to communicate, the hefty salary & benefits for something you\'ve never heard of and the request to reply for further registration.

It makes no sense unless they are trying to confirm you\'re the target and they\'re trying to get personal details from you. Could even be a virus. Advise NOT to open.


Follow Ups/Extra Information. Most recent is listed first.
I didn't fall in this trap because I suspected in it and after doing some search on the web, I found similar cases to this one with the same scammer name and email body

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
