I received an email for a "Job opportunity" from MENA Group Inc. Here is a portion of it:

My name is Jessica Todd and I represent MENA Group Inc.
We have looked through your resume and believe that your skills and past experience meet our basic requirements.
Few words about us: a large company with good reputation (we mainly deal with online investments) is finally expanding and looking for new representatives in the USA!
Two to three hours a day performing your duties from your home over the Internet is enough for this position.
We provide a one month paid training period. During your training you receive online training and support. A personal supervisor guides your training. At the end of the training the personal supervisor makes the final decision wheather to extend a permanent offer or not.
NOTE: During the trial period a personnel supervisor can recommend termination. So, please, take it serious.
Your wage during the trial period is $2,300 per month plus 8% commission from each transaction. Total income, with the current volume of clients, will be about $4,500 per month. After the trial period base salary will be $3,000 per month, plus 8% commission.

This seemed like a scam, so I did some searching to find a website (http://mena-groupsvc.com) and it claims to be a NY company that started in 1990, has a staff of over 3000 people and has locations in over 100 countries...
But I did a lookup of their website, and it's only been in existence since 7-28-09, and the IP location is in england, and the owner is named "Dmitry Kolobanov" and is located in Russia. (http://whois. Domaintools.com/mena-groupsvc.com)
Oh and when you sign up, they will want you bank information (big surprise...)
Wanted to post this as an FYI to anyone that gets a similar email.
