I read about this very recently and they want to track down where it is coming from. Give me a few minutes to see if I can find the link...

OMG i had no work a couple hours ago now I have 10 helion phone jobs, 1 gfk homeware job, 4 crisp jobs, and 1 supermarket for GR! argggggggggggggg

That's impressive! In the last two days I have accepted 5 phone shops, 1 travel shop, 1 computer shop and three petrol stations. Looks like things are on the up! About time! Lets just hope that our cash payers post their jobs in the next few days. Could do with some more jobs for April.

Definitely a scam - if anything turns up, take/send envelope and contents to your local police or Trading Standards.

Phew! Just done my test and passed on the 3rd attempt!!!! What a thickie! I was getting slightly worried by the end. Anyway, can now apply for jobs so have just applied for 6.:p I wasn't sure that there would be much in my area after previous posts, so am quite pleased that my town and a local are still available. There isn't much given away in the brief - once you have been allocated some, I presume you are able to see more info?

Think we're all still quiet there's still not a lot of work around...

April is starting to look a bit more promising now though, picked up 8 phone shops from Max, 2 supermarkets and 3 petrol audits last night. Also got the usual pile of greasy burgers and chicken shops. Pizza seems to have eluded me again this month though I'm missing the pizza place haven't been since February!!

Hoping there might be some phone shops near me left after I've done my 8 but won't hold my breath... It's been so quiet last few weeks I'm really thankful for the crisps and audits at least you can count on those jobs each month.
