Miscellaneous

Vantage Logistics emailed me as if they were responding to my Career Builder Application. They offered $40 per package and would send me prepaid shipping labels from the post office. They used the name Linda Thompson. The FBI told me they were probably a scam and Yahoo reported the email address l. Thompson303@yahoo.com was a forged header counterfeit (I never knew this was possible). They will probably change names so if anyone contacts you to ship packages to Russia or if you are doing so now, quit and demand valid proof of who they are. You will not get paid. They will tell you this is "Black PR" and try to appeal to your desperation of needing a job. Just look at the email yahoo sent me about Linda Thompson: Hello,

Thank you for writing to Yahoo! Mail.

Mass distribution of unsolicited email messages, or "spamming, " violates
the Yahoo! Terms of Service (TOS).

After investigation, we have determined that this email message did not
originate from the Yahoo! Mail system. It appears that the sender of
this message forged the header information to give the impression that
it came from the Yahoo! Mail system.

We take the operation of Yahoo! Mail very seriously. Unfortunately,
there is no control over messages sent through other email systems; and
it's not possible to preempt the misuse of the Yahoo! Name in forged
headers. While Yahoo! Cannot technically prevent its domain from being
forged in the headers of an email message, actions have been taken
against companies in an effort to prevent further forgery of the Yahoo!
Brand and to seek damages as appropriate.individuals are strongly
discouraged from forging the Yahoo! Domain in the future, and
appropriate action will be taken as necessary.

A few days later Yahoo reported that action has been taken.
