Watch out for these guys

Post by whyisitdoingthat »

I just got an email from a prospective employer/headhunting site asking for a 1400 dollar placement fee. I know this is probably old news but watch out for this stuff. Real headhunters get their pay from the companies, and the companies are tickled pink to find a person type rated.

Anyways just wanted to pass it along,

Hey, I just won a lottery in Bangladesh! I'll just send them my SIN, mother's maiden name and DOB. That and the $25K administration fee and my bank account number and they'll put my cheque in the mail same day........

What kind of a stunned twat would send money to a "head hunter"? Lots of companies right here in Canada will be happy to sell you a job!
