Default Re: Strange email
The first two things I look for is: 1)What time was the email sent? 2)What is their email address (a lot of the ones I have been getting are using gmail).

After I check those things, I then Google their name and email address. After I Google their business name and it comes up with nothing, I add the word "spam" after the name to make sure nothing comes up that way.

I also stopped applying to many virtual ads on many job sites, because most of them are scams. If it does not have the name of the company and I can research it, I do not apply to it anymore. I applied to a couple of them when I started out and each one of them wanted me to receive the checks and money orders, go to my bank and cash them, then contact them and send them the money.
