    Hi everyone..I also received this email today. Whatever you do: DO NOT REGISTER. This is a SCAM. Ways to spot this: -The company's address is Moscow, Russia -They sent an unsolicited email to you. How often do you get those? -The registration page is NOT secured by SSL -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Sockets_Layer -Their "Personal Login" page does not even work -Their website probably took about an hour to make. Doesn't the top part look unfinished and just stupid? Check the website again in a few days, I'm sure it will be taken down after someone falls for the trap or it is reported.

Sounds like Aaron was busy this weekend harvesting emails for his spam campaign. I also received same mass email. I have a resume posted on Monster.com and I am thinking that Aaron is using this for direct marketing. I never respond to these type of generic emails and since the only thing you really need is a pulse and a bank account, I would be very worried about giving any information to this person, it screams SCAM !!!! IMO

Yea, I received the same email today and responded back that I would like more information on the company and what the job entailed. We will see if they respond, as it sounds too good to be true!

I got the same email today. I did a Google search and found nothing. I find it odd that this company doesn't have a website and only has communication via email setup. I am almost certain this is a scam but I've not found any information to confirm that yet. I saw that another person commented that they emailed for more information so I am curious to see how that goes.

Ummm!!! I just got the Email as well...I checked on BBB & the RippOffReport Site and I found nothing...Just the fact the e-mail address is @gmail -it's possible it could be a scam be aware. I replied as well for more information, but I've not received an answer as of yet...But, be careful if you do reply for more information b/c they could send a Virus once they reply back upon your request.

I also received this e-mail and have received others regarding my resume posted on Monster.com and Career Builder. It is a scam. Supposedly you will be taking money from them into your checking account and converting their money into US dollars. Then you will be paid based on the amount of money you take into your checking account. Beware, this is not a legitimate job offer.

I received the exact email. Beware of anyone that tells you that you have to have a checking account! I am going to report it to [email protected]. This government agency suppose to check these types of emails.

I received the same e-mail I don't feel comfortable when I Google a company name with no results. The name Aaron Rabinovich doesn't match the e-mail either. Unless he is a surgeon. Let's keep checking.

I received that identical email on 6/09/2008. Before I go any further with this inquiry, does anyone else know if this is a scam?
