While I am used to receiving scams everyday in my in box, the most common one from a so-called bank requesting I update the details of my account, I have just opened this one from 'Sidney Car Center'..............


While we may have high expectations of our associates, we also give them high rewards. Imagine being part of a stable organization with a sterling reputation - a place where the Sydney Car Centre is an integral part of all that we do. With our car centre personality, you'll not just succeed - you'll thrive. And, with our strong commitment to promoting from within, you'll definitely enjoy your rise to the top.

Today the Sydney Car Centre is looking for an industrious regional assistant to fasten the process of the delivery of customer payments to the suppliers. The position offered is a part-time job, and will only require from you to be available for 1-2 hours a day.

As a regional assistant, you will be supposed to operate with the payments from those customers, based in your country. You will be expected to accept 2-3 transactions to your bank account every week, make certain calculations about every transaction (you will be precisely instructed about it), & transfer the funds to the suppliers by means of western Union/Money Gram less your fee & the charges of the Western Union/Money Gram. You will be continuously communicating with the manager from the head office, who will instruct you & give advice regarding every new payment.

The ideal candidate will be industrious, goal-oriented person, with the availability of a personal/business bank account suitable to be used for the company needs. Knowledge of English, computer literacy and sociability are appreciated.

The company guarantees to pay NET 10% fee out of the amount of every payment you dealt with and to provide you with the regular income & flexible schedule. All the related expenses you might have (like the Western Union/Money Gram chargers, related expenses on traveling) are covered by the company.

The more detailed information is available on our web-site http://vacancy-431610.sydncarcr.ph/vacancies.php, where you can fill in the on-line application form for this position.

We would be glad to welcome you in our team!

We are looking forward to hearing from you as soon as possible!

Yours sincerely, Heath Mccord

And guess what!
When you go through the various links to the job application form, they require your bank details!!!

Do these people think we are all nuts.
Does anyone know who I should report these kind of e-mails to?

I dunno. I delete 'em all anyway. (I usually get ads for Viagra and pr0n... as if I need them anyway...)

Good thing you did not fall into that trap.

Sadly these have been getting more common over the last few months...if you track this kind of thing the phishing attacks have been getting more sophisticated recently.

Not only in the use of language (huge improvement in grammar and spelling) but also more devious in delivery as well.

Any unsolicited email asking for any of my details...well I do not read unsolicited emails...

The official word is to notify the police. They may or may not be able to do anything about the scum, but they can and do post notices about this sort of thing.
