Pls tell me if the above email is a scam.

When i asked Susan to tell me more about the company and to give me their website, she didnt respond. Instead she keeps on emailing me the above email and the form.

At this point in time im desparately looking for a job and im scared of responding to something that i do not have information about. When i asked for an interview, she replied and said its unnecessary.....

Sounds very strange. Please help

You did the right thing in asking bulelwa.

It's a scam 100% I'm sorry to tell you.

You may be disappointed that it's not a real job, but avoiding it saves you from losing a lot of money and getting in to serious trouble.

The scam company used to go by the name of 'ELM', with the same story, and they'll send you counterfeit cheques to pay in to your account and ask you to pay them 90% cash by Western Union. Of course, you're paying them your own money as the cheque will bounce, and then the bank are liable to set the police on you for passing 'bad paper'.

There's no such thing as a good scam, but this one's particularly nasty as you end up losing money and in trouble with the bank and police, and if you're job seeking, that's the last thing you need. The scammers don't care.
