Has anyone heard of Zyon Media? Does this ad look legit?

I applied for this position as well whilst looking for some extra part time work at evening or weekends.

I received the same email today.

I have emailed the contact details at the bottom of the mail asking for evidence of its legitimacy. I don't expect a reply but if I do I'll let you all know.

Thanks to the people above who have put the work in to investigate ZyonMedia. I found this by doing my own search so thanks again.

The site, which still doesn't come up on Google searches, is registered to one Chris de Guzman at a Canadian address.

Mr. 'de Guzman' also had a site called Safeandlocal.com which, according to Web of Trust, was a website verification scam.

A few friends pointed me to this job, I mean.. Joke.
and I was curious at first until I noticed the reply..

"With over one hundred applicants you're one that interested us"

OK lol?

A nice fishing line but one hell of a rusty hook.

Cant help but think of the amount of people sending info back as game statistics that will be sold on,and for what?..A chance to prove your capable of doing there job.

Glad to see people here have similar thoughts on the matter :beer:

My instinct shouting at me now. I have managed to get the odd interview and have applied for jobs on internet cites, well over 200 applicants per job. They quote that you have interested them and are are wording it to make you feel special, but please be realistic. Just be careful.

Mario, you need to email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com and ask for permission to represent your company on here - this policy is here because we have had problems with people claiming to be company representatives but who turned out to be from a competitor and bad-mouthing the original company.

Sorry about that, I've already wrote to request permission.
I apologise.

the fact that they can't spell 'interview' would send me running for the hills.....

I received no reply from them. I'm just annoyed I sent them my CV with a lot of personal information on it.

Here was my email to the address on the reply.

Hello Jake,

I applied for the postion detailed below. However, before I go ahead and install the games and proceed with the application I'd like a little more information.

Which company would I be working for? I have tried to find reference to Zyon Media and only found reference to a company that was liquidated in New Zealand 6 years ago.

I've also found details that suggests the ZYONMEDIA.COM web address was only registered a few days before the job advertisements were made.

Can you provide confidence that the game sites are legitimate and that there are job opportunities available should I progress with the request?

Regards,
