Types of Email: Addendum
When your resume and email address are searchable by employers, another type of spam pops up. Here’s a real email that I got today from “Duffy Jacob,” whose sender email address is different than the email address listed in the email.

Okay, it really should just be filed under targeted, Are You For Real spam. This type of scam spam may not be Snopes-able, but there are so many things wrong with it that I can’t believe anyone would actually fall for it. And yet, we know that someone out there probably will.
Sigh.
