Hello I'm New here! Joined: 21 Jan 2013 Posts: 3

Hi guys I'm new here not sure if this is the place to post this but I received an email a few days ago and it seemed legit at first (to a jobseeker needing a job) but when I was asked to fill out an application form I was asked for my bank details and in my mind I thought "why do you need this?" but just assumed it was to email to finance and it said it was all confidential and I was just wondering if someone here could help me figure out if it was a scam or not? They already have my CV which is irritating but nothing of my bank account.

Here is the first email received:

Pretty typical ad for a mule "job." Add that to asking for a bank account, and it screams money laundering.

But really the domain information says it all. A week old, hidden reg details.
