ha..
spammers are the most creative people out there. They'll think up the strangest ways to scam people.

One of the best ways to scam people is to use a legitimate site like workopolis, or kijiji

if it looks fake, then it probably is.

You were so right. I contactated Workopolis and they said it was a scam. Do Not reply to it.
Thank You

That notice you received likely did NOT come from Workopolis. I get those emails all the time, and I long ago turned off the job search notifications from Workopolis and Monster.

These are scams, nothing more. Delete them as soon as you get them. Same calibre as the 419 Nigeria scams.

Part Time Job

Postby elenor52 » Tue Mar 31, 2009 08:01:40 AM

I belong to a site called Workopolis.ca I receiver job notices . But this one I received was not right for some reason.
It said we have a part time job for you.They want me to have a Royal Bank of Canada account or Interac email money transfer. Who ever asks for that?
I will receive paymeny transfer everything but 7% back to them.
Call me stupid but why? It is a UK company
I have always trusted this site , I emailed them and asked them what it is all about but haven't heard back yet.
Has anyone other than me heard of medcaukemployer@aol.com /
