After believing I was headhunted by a professional company such as ING, I was naive and gullible enough to respond, to the email by signing the contract and faxing it.
A week later I received this email from Amanda Davidson

Again I replied thinking this is genuine, thankfully I did not send my banking information.
However after reading the email, it looked and sounded unprofessional
After researching more about ING, I came across SCAM WARNING Job offers.
I have become a victim of this scam, therefore I would like further advice on how to stop any of these fraudsters using my personal information.
Thanks
