Markus Seafoods

I recieved the following random email from this scammer. It says first of all, that I showed an interest in their company at one time in the past. I have been looking for work so I actually didn't remember so I checked it out. As I was afraid, there is a MARCUS FOODS and a MARCUS SEAFOODS but there is not MARKUS Seafoods with a K instead of a C. Don't reply to this it is a Phishing Scam.


markusseafoodshr03@yahoo.com to me show details 1:33 PM (23 minutes ago)


You have recently expressed an interest in employment with our company, however at that time all the positions were fullfilled and we never got back to you. Now we have few openings and if you are still looking for a job please review this email.The next letter has been directed to you in order to help you get a position at Markus Seafoods, a well-known company selling assorted seafoods to various companies all over the world. In order to speed up the development rate of the company`s business, we need more staff helping our managers do what is required by the CEO of Markus Seafoods. The position set out in this email is that of an operational manager assistant. As the name shows, your main function will be to help our operational managers achieve goals set. In order to do it, you will mostly use your Internet connection, which should be flawless. Full list of your functions and duties can be found in the ‘About’ file. Please make sure that you are fully aware as well as understand the contents of the file before you take further steps described below.

Two files attached to the email are the ‘About’ file mentioned above and the 001 application form you are expected to fill out in order to initiate the selection process. Please complete the second file and send it back to us by email. As the general perception of your application is equally important, we believe that people sending us their employment application forms should check them for errors (including typos) before clicking on the ‘Send’ button in their mailboxes. This is a good way to show that you are a reliable applicant able to stick to what is required.

The last stage of the selection process is the phone interview with chosen candidates. Like any other job interview, it is has to be a real face-to-face conversation with a candidate, when different questions are asked, so when the interview is over, a comprehensive picture of your professionalism and skills is available. Some questions may include those about the performance of the company. In order to answer them, please visit our website and focus your attention on the most important information and facts about Markus Seafoods.

Shortly after the interview another phone call will be made, when you will be asked to fill out the last application online (the 002 file) and send us a copy of your ID.

Thank you for your efforts and attention!

Sincerely,
HR

Another History Revisionist

I am tired of the NEOCON History Revisionism that goes on in this country. Christians just can't get over the fact that they were lied to by their church when they were little and so they want to change the facts to go with their theory. This guy should be ashamed of himself.
Once again I will remind everyone that there were only SEVEN founding fathers. John Adams (DEIST) , Benjamin Franklin (DEIST), Alexander Hamilton (DEIST), John Jay (Revisionist Christian who was mostly influenced by DEISM), Thomas Jefferson (DEIST), James Madison (DEIST), and George Washington (DEIST).
Christians, get over it and quit lying to yourselves. You aren't the only game in town, GROW UP!

ALLSTATE INSURANCE

It seems that the "Good Hands" people have started lying to make you think that the more you pay, the better they cover you. State laws mandated by the Department of Insurance in your state enforce insurance company complaints and any insurance company, no matter how small they are, does NOT want to be prevented from selling insurance in your state, so they comply with coverage on claims as per your contract.
You will notice that Mr. Mayhem, not a spokesman for the company, and I will mention here that an actor doing a dramatization will say what he is payed to say, is the one to infer to you in the commercial in a carefully worded way, that, "If you paid for cut rate insurance, then you (THE OPERATIVE WORD HERE IS) "COULD" (careful not you say that you will) be paying for this yourself. Have you noticed their commercials are ALL OVER THE PLACE AND ALL THE TIME NOW? If their product was that great, they wouldn't need to advertise that much. They just want their clients and prospective clients to think it is worth it to pay more.
I go to an insurance broker who finds me the best rate for the least money. He has NEVER called and told me, "Gee, Steve, you know what? The best coverage we can get for you for the money would be ALLSTATE." If they were that good, he would.
Because of the changes in State Laws recently, in some states good drivers who have never had an accident or DUI are paying as little as nine dollars a month for insurance but you don't hear that being advertised.

MyLife.com Is A Scam

No one, and I repeat, NO ONE should bother giving money to MyLife.com They are a ripoff and have been since Day ONE. Their advertising seems questionable at best. They send out spam emails saying that someone wants to know about you, don't you want to know who? I can tell you who, MyLife.com wants to know any pertinent information about you so they can sell it. They don't have to guarantee you that the information they give you is accurate or helpful. It might be about someone with a similar name. They advertise that you only have to pay a small introductory fee then extract a year's worth of "fee" from your account as soon as they get your account number. Do not under any circumstance give them your account number.
Whitepages.com that is supposed to be part of the phone company directory will no longer give you information, they instead send you to some "pay for information" site that performs the same type of ripoff as MyLife.com.

Original Message Follows:

Please read the original post following this one:


The point is, if you sell me something on your website, YOU ARE THE SELLER. I didn't send my money to a computer, I sent it to Barnes and Noble as they are supposed to be in charge of collecting the money and distributing the product to the buyer's selected shipping address. When someone puts in a shipping address and their system changes it because the system has an erroneous flaw in it, then it is NOT THE CUSTOMER'S FAULT!

Don't Use Barnes and Noble Online ! ! ! !

Barnes And Noble Online Bookstore Is No Longer Responsible For Their Own Computer System Errors !


Today, Sunday, August 7th, 2011 I tried to order a small used book for a mere eight dollars and change. After spending twenty minutes looking up and typing my daughter's address into the "Shipping Address" area on the order page, I then typed in my address for the "Billing Address" portion of the order page. At a certain point it asked me to verify my card information, etc. then asked me to verify my order. I checked all the information and hit the submit button.
When the verification page came up it had the name and address of a friend of mine who I ordered a book for a month ago - in both the Shipping Address and Billing Address sections of the verification page, saying "Thank You For Your Order, It is already being sent to the book dealer for shipment." I was immediately upset. I called Barnes and Noble's customer service number and the customer service representative told me that they were NOT able to fix a mistake like that when THEY CREATE IT. She went on to tell me that I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR CONTACTING THE SELLER AND STRAIGHTENING THE PROBLEM OUT ON THEIR END.
I emailed the seller and tried to contact them by phone today, which is a Sunday, and of course, no one could answer since they aren't in. Although their automated system has already prepared the book for shipping, according to the email they sent me. Ultimately, to solve the problem, I had to call my bank and cancel the transaction through a stop payment on their end. Since Barnes and Noble Online bookstore thinks that they are no longer responsible for fixing their system mistakes and chooses to act like a computer error is an act of God, then, I will no longer use them.
Be Careful Out There, Arizona Mildman
