Anyone see this one recently. Just landed in my inbox. I assume it is a standard 419 with plenty of hidden fees but some absolute gems in the actual text.

Out of interest, how exactly would this scam work? I haven't encountered anything like this before - would there be employment agency fees or something?

[EDIT:] Misspelled stuff

Yes, that's a very commone one, as is the scammer Rose Grand, we have killed quite a few of her omni otel websites already, she has probably given up making sites now, but if she gives you a website url, please post it.

[edit]

@ AS, they usually ask for a processing fee and/or visa fees etc.

Will post it if I get one. I was just going to chuck it away until I acually read the text. Will give me an opportunity to be downright smutty.

I really want to know what is involved with MEN FOR FUN MAKING WITH LADIES so have asked for job description.

You would think the letter would have been made just a little bit more credible if it has been around so long.

I got something similar from the Crowne Plaza. I responded to the intial query, then the first "application". I told him I wanted to be a "dancer" for $2000 a month. Then he sent me more paperwork for immigration plus a "contract" that I will work and stay at the hotel for 4 years.

Different hotel, but same scam. I can't figure out the angle and the papers were just too darn much work. You almost wonder if this is some criminal syndicate (e.g., forced labor) rather than just your run of the mill 419 lad. I threw in the towel.

Anyone wanting to work this bait, be advised there are many papers to fill out.

I have found this one nearly impossible to bait. I have done it as straight as possible with no luck at all. 4 or 5 times. Nothing. Once you start asking silly questions, she has nothing else to do with you. At least, that is my experience with it.
