Recruitment Offer Scam By Apex Paperworks?

Thank God It’s Friday!  But scammers don’t take the weekend off. They’re still at it again. I received the email listed below which is the same type of Payment Processor, Bookeeper work at home scams and Fake Check Scams that seems to be the favorites of dubious individuals. If you’ve read my blog enough you’re able to spot these way before I announce them. But just in case you’re new, please see the scam listed below so you know what to avoid.

From: apex.workinfo2@yahoo.co.uk (Although in th email I received it was from a maine.edu domain and I’m certain the scammer just hacked into this unsuspecting person’s email account to send the email. So I don’t want to list that person’s email address.)

Email Subject: RECRUITMENT OFFER..

No thanks! Sadly the company listed in the email may be legitimate and not actually behind the scam. But scammers are very smart nowadays and would probably list McDonald’s in their scam job offers  if they wanted to keep you from thinking it’s a scam.

But the whole cashing a check for us thing is always a dead give away.  Even the email address which is just a free yahoo account that any scammer can get and not an actual company email address tells me this is a scam. In any event, enjoy your weekend and try to avoid being ripped off or scammed by these frauds.
