"Job: Virtual Data Service Position
Hello,
My name is John Anderson , and I am a human resources supervisor at
**A Virtual Data Service I would first like to thank you for your interest
in the position. Here's a brief overview of what we have to offer you.
Remember if you have any questions please feel free to email me back,
and I will be sure to respond personally.
Job Description:

-Full online training
-Pay based on per-completion basis
-Work your own hours/days
Requirements:

Basic internet knowledge
Willingness to learn and set goals
Details:
We are seeking only self motivated people with the desire to work with
online advertising.
No experience is necessary. You must have a computer with internet
access, a working email account, and basic typing skills. You can
choose
to work full or part time and the hours are set by you. We recommend 18
to 36 hours weekly. You will be processing responses from
advertisements; this will be explained to you in the training
materials.
Everything is sent via email. There is no contract to sign; the amount
you choose to process is entirely up to you. As with any job, you must
be able to respond to advertisements in a timely manner.
Compensation:
You will be paid $15.00 to $20.00 for each application you process. For

of your earnings for tax purposes. We do not take out anything for

process. There is a one time
non-refundable fee of $15.00 USD. This cost covers the training
materials sent to you. Once you process your first response, you will
have made back this fee. This is just a small processing fee,
protecting
from those who are not serious about doing this work. No business can
cover administrative cost, wasted time or provide costly materials to
everyone who inquires about this position. If this is not acceptable
for
you, or you cannot afford this small cost, please disregard this email.

THIS IS MOST DEFINITELY A SCAM! Do not send money for a "job offer". A "job" does not require a payment to do. Think about it. If you applied for a job for any company in an actual building somewhere, they certainly would not ask you to pay them $15 for training materials to learn how to do your job. There are many variables of this scam out there. Ignore them, they just want your money and you will NOT make any money.

Do not fall for that one. All they are doing is selling you the right to resell that program. Most people avoid those completely

this is a scam, believe me. why should you pay for a training? if they are legit they should provide a free training for their hired workers. bringincash@yahoo.com is not a valid email format for a legit company. think about it. it is a scam.
