Security, Scams, and the Internet
This morning I received an email that looked rather suspicious. The email came from Dorris Maenpaa [maenpaavvdorris5@hotmail.com]. The email is pasted in below:
Dear XXXXXXX,<br />
yesterday our company sent you an offer for an opening of a "Check Assist Manager".<br><br>
Unfortunately our website wasn't working by reason of too many visitors.<br><br>
To apply for this job please href="http://oauetnosu.blogspot.com"> fill form on our web-site<br><br>
Thank you for your understanding.<br>
This email concerned me as I know blogspot (i post here) and I see no reason for a job poster to be using it as a job site. I hit the link and found that the website has a re-director on it. The individual sending the email uses a hotmail.com address and job description just screams scam. Just thought I'd post this to let anybody know I'm not going there. I tried to notify google as they own the website, but couldn't find the correct link in the short period of time I had. Just wanted to post something to warn people
