Just for Fun / Re: Oh those Wacky Scam Artists!

Hey everyone, first time poster at this forum.

I just received the same email, except it was from Kate Primsley (kateprimsley@yahoo.com). I was also suspicious of the email, since I literally JUST signed up for an account at CareerBuilder.com...

Apparently, "It (CareerBuilder) is a legit site, but I wouldn't post a resume on there. I did and have gotten so much spam that I took it off and closed down my email address and had to open a different one! I also am getting ready to change my phone # I get lots of calls from people trying to sell me things. I have never gotten a job offer from anyone that I have applied for from that site either! I think they get so many resumes they are just too overwhelmed and they get resumes from people who aren't even qualified for the job! Don't fall for those work at home online things, they are all scams! Go to Better Business Bureau website to read the warning signs."


So, curious, did you also sign up for a CareerBuilder account?

Also, I would be interested to see the contents of the aforementioned "attached application form" if possible :-)
