Eigbox.net email with subject line: personal ast. Needed

I received a totally unsolicited email with the subject line..."personal ast. Needed' When I opened the email the only text was..."Become my assistant for $500weekly, reply"

So I replied with the following..."I have some mad skills and may be interested, but would you mind elaborating just a little on exactly what you're looking for in a VA?" and my name.

The email I received the next day was HIGHLY suspicious. Appears English may not be a first language, no geographical location or other contact info, and is asking for a lot of my personal
information.

Looks like the makings of an identity theft scheme!

I have copy / pasted it below...
