SCAM Alert: Middlesex University

Posted on May 11, 2011

SCAM ALERT!!!

Some of our speakers have reported receiving a copy of the following e-mail message. Please do not reply to this message. The speaking opportunity referred to does not exist. At least one of our speakers responded to this message, and received a request to use Western Union to wire funds for "work visa processing," which will supposedly be reimbursed.

Again, DO NOT reply to this message if you receive it. I found more information about this scam which has apparently been going on for some time. You can read about it at http://ymlp.com/zrtFEk.

Here's a copy of the message to watch out for:
