RE: Friday Funny (not so funny)

["Rick Bishop" <rickbishop -at- austin -dot- rr -dot- com>]

A better title for this position is "Money Launderer."
Search Google for "money laundering job fraud"
Here's a letter from a recent respondent to one of these ads:
"Today I received a check from TIME WARNER in the amount of $35,100.00 to
deposit into my bank. I am to keep 10%.
I am supposed to be a receiving agent for Harvey Holdings in the UK.
If anyone wants to know more... Please contact me. FBI notified but they
didn't come out to see me. Local police are too busy.
Thanks

I tend to think that sort of Spam is the 21st century equivalent to the
print ads that read "Make up to $1400/mo part time!"  I remember seeing them
posted on campus when I was an undergraduate.  A broke undergraduate who
needed beer money.  And so I went to the presentation-come on, y'all, some
of you have done this, and you know how it ends.  They want you to go
door-to-door selling knives (that you have to buy first) or spend your
summer selling encyclopedias (where they provide you with lodging and their
own transportation-there was something cultish about it).  

One of these days, just for the halibut, I'm going to respond to one of
these ads, but probably not.  Outside of work, I tend toward indolence and
indulgence.

Have a great weekend!
