I received an email today (see below) offering me RM2,000 for every funds transfer as a Payment Receiving Agent on top of a USD4,000 monthly allowance. Too good to be true ? Or a scamming scheme at work.
The email initiated by them is asking for my personal info, contact as well as banking information. Their website only have one landing pages that is www.global-lcd-stores.com/Lcd.html. If you browse to their domain name URL at www.global-lcd-stores.com, you will hit an error.
Their domain registration history also look very odd. That domain was registered in Oct 26, 2008 and will expired in Nov 26, 2008. A one month valid website even though they claimed to be in business in 1984.
Below is a screen-shot of the http://www.global-lcd-stores.com/Lcd.html
The email that I receive :

The moral of the above :
1. Don't just jump on offers like above.
2. Whatever that is TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE.... is probably a SCAM !
3. In 1984, do we have LCD screen ?!?
