That's amazing, especially since my resume is not posted anywhere

Wow...just wow...

It is really scary how many people will fall for that and send complete resumes with all their personal information on it. Just scary.

What's an esteem company?
They must mean an e-steam company. Any company that has figured out cold fusion, and can make e-steam gets my resume....

Esteem company?

Are there that many old Suzukis out there that need IT personnel?

I'm disappointed they didn't offer you $4M for moving expenses, in exchange for you bank account/routing numbers, and a reasonable fee for transferring the $4M into your account.

Their spelling says it all. An 'esteem' company? I would never reply. I certainly would not send any personal information. These people are getting more clever all the time, but even today poor spelling can be a giveaway. Although I have come across the websites of professional companies that did have serious spelling problems.

Before I sent personal information to anybody or any company on the internet I would do some serious research. They use all kinds of social engineering techniques to try to get personal information.

I've been trying to sell some furniture on the craigslist. It is unbelievable how many scammers want me to ship it to them sight unseen. Payments would include delivery fee, of course.
Last 2 e-mails were from a deaf and mute gal that wanted me to ship it to Texas (from Alaska). Each e-mail was signed with different English first names, but e-mail address had Hispanic name on it.

I thought about having some fun with it, but my wife talked me out of it. I guess she still remembers the not-so-polite response I had sent to a prior scammer.

Only if it comes with 500,000.00 up front on a 90-day contract and a three-man Blackwater security team when you leave the Green Zone.
