I just received an e-mail today concearing a job opportunity. It immediately set up some red flags as an obvious scam.

Screenshots of the e-mail: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v299/Ulario/DeltaLtd.jpg

I did a little Googling, and sure enough (surprise, surprise) it's a scam: http://scamfraudalert.wordpress.com/2011/04/13/delt-group-ltd-jobdelt-group-com/

I'm just posting this as a heads up to any artists who get any e-mail from Delt Group Ltd or one "Den Ratz". It's a scam.

Well spotted. It's scary how many people would get a message like that and not think twice about it.

The horrible way in which it's written had me doubting it instantaneously. Not to mention the very odd way in which they state the position offerings.

It's a dead giveaway that the person writing this has never worked for a company/used contracted help before.

Ratz, indeed >_>

"world's famous" and "in this assignment of this position"....

You will work 2 hours a day 5 days a week for up to $4,500 per month, without ever hearing of the company or contacting them first. Also, we shall tell you exactly how much you'll 'make' without us knowing any of your skill sets.
