HIGH ALERT!!!

I was scanning vacancies via Indeed and came across the following ad.  When I clicked the link it directed me to Gumtree.  I found it to be highly suspect for several reasons which will become glaringly obvious to you as you read through it.  This prompted me to do a little research and I found that the company MKC academy of fashion, beauty & print is located in Los Angeles, California and not Paris.  The poster of the ad is obviously using this company to give his "job opportunity" credibility.  What he gets for this is pictures of women in costumes and lingerie which he will probably sell on to porn sites that will use the pictures to advertise their sites.

I have not done any editing to the ad below - this is how it appears on Gumtree.  You can click the link at the bottom of the post to view the original.  Please be sure to read my comment below the ad.

This is how I would love to deal with this person - and I will need your help here.  I propose that you take pictures of whatever... your grandmother, a dump site, your toilet (preferably with a little something floating in the bottom), a beggar standing on a street corner... use your imagination people, it's open season.  Once you have a nice collection of complete c**p, send them to this douche bag.  And if you need any motivation, consider this: This ad (at my viewing) has had 2670 hits!!! I shudder to think of how many women have fallen victim to this scam and your daughter, sister or cousin could be this scumbags next victim.  Happy snapping :-)

PS Should you see fit to oblige me in my little vendetta I would love for you to comment on what you dropped into his inbox.
