I think I've found the level whereby every email I get I look at through 419 spectacles (oooo that gives me an idea....).
This landed in my inbox and the wording just made me think hmm, this doesn't sound right. So I checked out the IP, hmmm it's fine, so I rang the recruitment agency to see if he was infact real. He answered the phone! hahaha Ended up explaining 419eater to him. I think he thought I was complete and utter loon, so I don't think I'll be hearing from him again
Dear [firstname] [surname]
I am working on an interesting Business Project Manager Position. The initial 2 months will be an attractive contract opportunity that will materialise into a Permanent Position. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to be a key contributor to the client’s current projects and overall future success.
Our records indicate that you are a potential strong candidate for the position at hand.
I have a great deal more information on the client, project(s) and client requirement, however please send an up to date CV initially and feel free to contact me at any point.
I look forward to your response
Regards and Respect
John Edwards |

I baited him last month when he was apparently in Africa and working as a barrister. Hope he's not mad at me, hehe |

A long time ago I received a phone call along similar lines.
Turned out to be somebody trying to recruit me for Multi-Level Marketing. |

Is that John Edwards the Politician or John Edwards the Psychic?
Hopefully you didn't tell him about me! |

'Noid lol I didn't think of those two at the time, good job or the line "did you really need to send me an email" or "put your hands in the air!" would have trotted out.
JD - I think I did
Still haven't heard back from him..... |
