Applied Metal Technology Ltd.
61Another Chance to launder money
This one comes with a twist. The scammer does not 'actually' STATE what your job will be, but the implication is there. You will be receiving payments and processing them. Please be sure that:
#1 - No legit company uses GMAIL as a return to account
#2 - No legit company sends out unsolicited requests for employment.
Here is the email: (I have underlined and bolded the BIG tip off.)

That is true, Dan, but the grammar here is better than some of the others I have gotten...
BUT! They are getting cleverer and using actual firms now!
Geoffrey, You are right. However, if we keep in mind that actual REAL firms DO NOT solicit people for employment or use 'free email accounts', the scammers are real easy to pick out. AND if in doubt, and I were looking for employment outside my home business, I would pick up the phone and call the actual company....
i know this is sound very dumb, they asked me for a copy of my picture id an i sent it to them...please tell me they cant do anything with that???
Not being a scammer, it's tough to imagine why one of them would want your picture, but If a scammer has your picture, it could be used on passports, credit cards .... there's absolutely no telling WHAT the reason was.

Not only are there many flags to show it is a scam, but these people are supposedly from the U.K and have terrible grammar. "We need people from different regions to work as our agents in their region in other [order?] to create a good and reliable medium between our customers and this company; this is a work at home job and requires less of your time (i.e. only 0.5% of your time every month).
