Here’s my letter from Sarah Rivera.

Hi CAM

Another recruiter in the engineering field saw your resume and passed it on to us. While we don’t have any job matches in Florida, we know that most people are looking for a career in their local area.

We know the current job market can be tough and wondered what other alternatives you have considered for your search?

If you are looking for a job in Florida, try this site. It’s a great site and will give your resume exposure to local employers that are hiring. If you’re looking further afield, maybe try a partner career site in another city.

Regardless, good luck on the job search.

Sincerely,

Sarah Rivera
HR Manager

I have received two emails from a Diane Knowles with the same BS in the previous postings above. I had to wonder why there was no phone number and turns out to be another scam collecting personal info.

Another tip, NEVER PAY FOR A JOBSEARCH AND NEVER BELIEVE THE JOB POSITNG IF IT SAYS IT WILL PAY YOU MORE THAN YOU WOULD BE OFFERED.

Trust your instincts and always do research before responding.

Good luck,

Susan

I received the same email from Ruth Davis. The sending email address was ruthd@greatcareers2008.net

Also operating under the name Alexander Morgan. A few spam/scam clues to watch for that I have learned the hard way:

- No company name under the signature
- Company name doesn’t match the senders domain name.
- Check the mail headers for the real sending domain.

Search before reponding. good people (like this blogger) help alert you to the scams.

Hmmmm. A google search of “andrea tucker” yields a painter with some, er, interesting(?) paintings. I searched after receiving a very similar email.

I get a spam email from Andrea tucker trying to get me to go to a web site almost every day. It sites my area (city) in each one and my field of work. It sounds so realistic but it is definatley SPAM. i do not even have a resume online.

Hi ‘not andrea tucker’

Another recruiter in the health care field found your resume on the Internet and forwarded it to us. While we don’t have any suitable jobs in Chicago, we know that most people are looking for a job in their local area.

We understand the current job market can be tough and wondered what other alternatives you have considered for your search?

If you are looking for a job in Chicago, try (i took it out so no one accidentally opens the link). It’s a great site and will give your resume exposure to local employers that are hiring. If you’re looking further afield, maybe try a partner career site in another city.

Regardless, good luck on the job search.

Sincerely,

Andrea Tucker
