Matthew 28:19-20 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.

I was excited when I got a reply so quickly, but I was very suspicious. It all seemed to good to be true. Then they responded saying i was hired but somehow they had am old phone number and my current address even though i didnt give them either.Thanks to my Google search I found this site and saw that the email this "Philip Martinez" sent me has been going around for years. I am still in communication with this person, as this info is new to me and I have yet to decide how to proceed. I am worried about what they can do with the info i did give them (ie phone number, city, full name, age) especially, since they somehow figured out my street address. Not sure what they are trying to get from me or their objective, but I am even more upset that they had the gall to use a Bible verse in there email, which I must admit, as a Christian, made me trust them to begin with. (I know how ridiculous that sounds, believe me) Any info or advice that can be shared would be much appreciated.

I really want to confront this person...

Please post his email address; others may be looking for the address to find out if he's a scammer.

Just cut off contact. He's not trying to commit identity theft; he's looking for people to receive stolen money and forward it to him as money or as goods.

Welcome to Scamwarners,

You and I will never confront this scammer/thief he is using a fake name and email address to steal.

These scammers will use religion that they do not believe in to commit these crimes.

his email is [email protected]

After sending my Resume I recvd this email response back from "Dr. Philip Martinez email address [email protected]. But when I responded to email (Thanking him for wasting my time) the return email was automatically to [email protected].

I see this scam has being happening for over a year.
