Open the email and then in your account there should be an option for something like ACTIONS where it could say mark as unread or print and there should be something that says VIEW FULL HEADERS

copy and paste

It's all very strange indeed. The registered and trading address for the company (with one director, no accounts) is a "recruitment agency" called Barrymore Cooper. Apparently

When you click on the Facebook and Twitter links on the barrymorecooper home page they take you to "Wix" - a free publishing platform?!

It's very hard to tell on this one, but my vote is fake.

The site provides a "shared cost number" for a phone number, and no physical address or email for contact.

This company is a SCAM. Ok here is my story. I received an email from some one called (text removed by MSE Forum Team),[TEXT DELETED BY FORUM TEAM]. The email was sent at 11.30 pm asking me to attend the interview at 8.30.am the next day, which I already thought is kind of strange. But anyway since I am desperate for a job I decided to give it a go. So the interview was held in Canary Wharf - level 18, 40 bank street... So I arrive there the building looks all very impressive. I was asked to wait in the waiting area. I was waiting for ONE HOUR! Then I was finally invited for the interview. Again impressive office, 18th floor, an amazing view on Canary Wharf. Nothing too suspicious. Then the "manager" finally comes to get me for an interview. (it was my and 2 other people on the interview). The "manager" could barely speak any english, which I found quite strange, but I did not give it too much thought at that stage. You know it is London. So the interview was ok, the "manager" told us that he will contact successful ones by the end of the day and will give them a little homework. No one contacted me so i thought, well I must have been unsuccessful. The next day I am receiving a text message at around 11am saying - you have been successful your training starts today at 1pm Obviously I thought that they are very unprofessional but since I had nothing better to do and I was still impressed by the office I saw yesterday I decided to give it a go.

So for some reason the "training" was held on a completely different address : (Text removed by MSE Forum Team). So anyway I arrived 10 mins early, as i got there there was no business name or any labels at all, I went inside knocked on random doors no one answered me. I texted and phoned the person who contacted me no response. I felt like a total fool. I was hanging around for like 40 mins. So anyhow I got into the office which did not really look like an office more like a small apartment or smth, I stood there like and idiot for about 15 minutes. No one approached me or anything I saw the guy who interviewed me the other day he said hi and went pass me. So the situation was getting very humorous. So while standing there I already knew that I will not stay here, just trying to be polite I was going to approach the " manager" and tell him sorry I do not thin I fit here. So I started leaving and the "manager" was leaving for some reason as well. When I was already outside he finally approached me and asked me what was my problem. And I said well I my problem is that I had to be wondering around for 1 hour and briefly I think you are SCAM. He tried to give me some pathetic explanations when he realised that he was failing and I my accusations were actually taking over, he turned around and simply WALKED AWAY from me, without saying anything. So I just stood there for a minute or so and went home

So this is my story, I suggest everyone stay away from that company.

I have just received an email from them asking me to come in for an interview and then training. Looks fishy
