Default Part-Time Job Opportunity

Note the words "your initial requesting" - of course i didn't do any requesting and wouldn't most of us remember that we hadn't been searching for a job? I really wonder how many people fall for this kind of thing

Were you looking for a job recently? I was and I have been getting emails like this. Most people that get these actually have been looking for a job and have there resume up on things like careerbuilder or monster. If you haven't, that's a little odd. And as you already know, that definitely sends off a crap-load of alarms

No, i wasn't looking for a job and haven't put any resumes, CVs, etc online or sent them to anybody, and if i did i wouldn't use the email address these are coming to. I get a lot of these "employment" emails and assumed that they were randomly sent to many people, not just those who were looking for employment. That's why i always felt it was strange that they included words like "IN RESPONSE TO YOUR INITIAL REQUESTING".

Oh well, it's their time they're wasting
