This bunch of scammers are currently advertising for Warehouse Assistants in various parts of the country. The job descriptions are nearly all the same and they all pay £7.31 ph rising to £9.59 ph after 12 weeks. They either describe themselves in the listings as UK Jobs or Company Confidential. Here's one of their adverts:

https://jobsearch.direct.gov.uk/GetJob.aspx?JobID=6356637&JobTitle=Warehouse+Assistant&redirect=http%3a%2f%2fjobsearch.direct.gov.uk%2fhome.aspx&pp=25&where=UK&sort=rv.dt.di&rad=20&rad_units=miles&re=134&tm=0&avsdm=2014-02-24T10%3a50%3a00-05%3a00&tjt=Warehouse+Assistant

Their website has no contact address, phone number or privacy policy and the address on the Domain Registration is that of an internet cafe in Luton.

http://whois.domaintools.com/ukjob.org

There's no link through to CV Library as is the usual case with this type of con but they say that candidates will need to complete a DBS check so I'm guessing that's the scam - take a fee off jobseekers then disappear with the money.
