Well my spider senses are tingling.

You need to ask? It's either a scam or illegal!

Yep it sounds like one of those money handling/payment processing type scams. You won't get any money, but you'll lose some.

Hi,

The advert was on a jobsearch website called Indeed.co.uk, in the past I have seen & applied for jobs through them but this one certainly appeared a bit 'iffy' to say the least!!

Thanks for the advice all :j

Indeed adverts all take you to another site so where was it advertised? Got the link?

SO I have never heard of that site before, has anyone else?

And, to me is sounds like a drug courier job or something just as shifty.......I wouldn't touch it and I am amazed you would need to ask after seeing it there.

The phone number has the Philippines international dialing code so probably not a real one.
