Job Scam: Advertising International Company
Like the FIAS job scam last month, these otherwise ordinary job scammers seem to have compromised someone else's domain and web-hosting facilities. Just like last time, the compromised site is a church/charity type operation. Is this a targeted attack, or do charitable operations just usually have bad passwords? Whatever the case, the spam arrived from 200.234.67.113 on Mon, 19 Sep 2005 17:40:49 -0000, and the linked domain, "www.velocityouth.com" (link removed in text below), appears to be an innocent but compromised third party.

i was sucked in on this as it seemed like a good thing at the time being christmas a bit of extra income would be handy... now looks like i might be in the shit over it but we will have to wait and see i havent transfered maoney as bank froze the account i was using... if any one has anything that can help me please leave feed back...
Sorry to hear you got sucked in. Freezing accounts like this is pretty standard practice when people note that money has been transferred in without proper authorisation. I hope the freezing of your account doesn't prove too problematic for you -- it may take a while to sort out. You may want to get legal advice on this matter, and you should definitely cooperate with the bank and police to get it sorted out.
