.
has anyone received a job offer recently from one these two?
highly suspicious. it falls into the "too good to be true" category.

Caveat emptor - if it sounds too good to be true...

And it strikes me strange that Russians (east Europeans?) would be recruiting for Korean schools.

turns out, after a little googling, it's a total scam.
found the dude's name with another e-mail address.
same m.o., then tried to get my mother's maiden name
on a u.k. border agency "application."
methinks a western union for "travel insurance" or something is next.

sadly, i sent my teacher's package,
that included my CRC and passport info, etc.
so he's got my social security #, passport #,
phone #, addresses, etc. - don't think i've
been ripped off yet - he would have dropped it
with the initial package. i think the scam comes
in later - family info: mother's maiden name,
and cash sent. still, i'm a little worried :(

watch out for: Dovzhenko Valerri and Lawrence Moran (at the sheffield
Border agency: [email protected].)

other: Diss Side Inn
13 Ipswich Road,
Scole, Nr Diss
Norfolk IP 21 4DR
+44 (01) 8445898856

also: Taqwee Anasari has the same m.o.
needs a tutor in London, and paying 4000 pounds (!).

embarrassingly, i sent the initial barrage,
then thought about it...whoops...
:(
