I also look to see if a phone number is listed. Most all do not list any phone number of any physical address. None have a area that says, contact us or home page. These are tell tale signs of a scam.

Great post... similar analysis (i) there are no names in the contract - so I wondered how they could have chosen me. (ii) a reply email with gmail - a large corporation (has to be if it is delaing in precious metals) in general like you indicated will not use free emails for important issues as such.

I did the same thing as Joy and came across your blog. Good work to keep others informed.

By the way: Most of what used to be the lawless Eastern Europe is now part of the European Union. The new boys of the class, the ones that want to prove what good boys they are. Among other things, this means that it is easier to get cooperation from the local police.

If you have been scammed, the money is probably lost, but there is a chance they can catch and punish the people who did it. Contact your local police for details.

@Andrew: As the old saying goes, violent men die violent deaths. Hopefully these crooks who act like rats will die like rats.

Whah? Now what do I do? I just did exactly what you mentioned and not once but three times! I'm certain I'm up against the post now.

But seriously, the spelling errors and grammar alone would put me off as a prospective employee just on that principle alone, besides all of the other relevant information provided here on this site. What gets me is that there are people that most likely ignore these signs due to our economy and fork up any effort necessary to make their house payments. The parties that are responsible for this letter and for snaring helpless people desperate and without any means left will no doubt serve their time one way or another. The angry part of me says I hope that it's a more recent justice full of large bruts that can make these shameless "No spell checker Mfos!"

Thank you for posting this. This was truly the best spam I've seen this year. Although, I delete about 5000 spams each day so who knows if there is anything better. This one caught my eye as potentialy real, but using the same evaluation as you have I've decided that it must be fake and searched for it on google. That is how I found your website.
