I've been trying to apply for a job recently, and here's one of the responses I got.


Your application has been received and reviewed. Please, read about our

ABOUT COMPANY
J N Finance a leading financial company, has dedicated itself to
providing momentary money exchanges all over the world. We are committed to
providing our customers with outstanding service every day. Our vision
is to provide innovative payment solutions that enable the exchange of
value between buyers and sellers anywhere, anytime and by any method.

IDEA OF THE SERVICE
We help people to perform momentary international money transfers (Bank
Wire Transfer to Western Union exchange). For example, our client in
Australia needs to send money to Poland. In this case the bank wire
transfer may take up to 14 business days. The only fastest way is the
Western Union. But sometimes you don't have the Western Union nearby, or you
don't have enough cash to send Western Union, or you are on a business
trip, and the only possible way is to make a bank wire over phone. But
what you will do, when the money must reach Poland in 24 hours? It can
be for personal needs of your relative or a business deal! That's why
people prefer using the Direct Transfers, the fastest way of Bank Wire
- Western Union exchange. Our clients send bank wire to our employees
(we hope that you will be one of them soon). Employees receive money and
forward it to Europe via Western Union.

RESPONSIBILITIES AND BENEFITS
Payments assistant will work 2-3 hours (from 9:00 AM till 4:00 PM *any
time) daily and will receive based $100 USD on his bank account every
day.

2. Get details about new money transfer made to your bank account and
instructions where to forward the money over Western Union.
3. Go to the bank and receive cash.
4. Keep your 5 of the amount (calculated beforehand).
5. Go to the Western Union to transfer the rest of the money.
6. Get back on-line to provide the Western Union money transfer control
number and exact amount of transfer.

IMPORTANT: You don’t need any money for start, for job or anything.
All money for all taxes and fees you will take from the rest amount
which you will exchange.

Any "job listing" that involves another country sending payments through Western Union or any other wire transfer... is usually a scam.

I got one of those emails the other day, and I haven't been on the market for a new job since I was hired for my current at the end of November.. I marked it as spam.

I kinda figured it was a scam, but I just wanted to see if this is a new type of scam and if anyone has received this. Possibly informing a few who doesn't know.
Looks like a new scam to me because it doesn't invole the usual rich Nigerian uncle who needs a bank transfer. Oh wells, back to job hunting.
