Job Scams

For the past few months I've been job searching. I go out and ask for applications, I go through the phonebook to call and ask who's hiring, and I have profiles on several career websites. One thing I'm starting to realize, especially with careerbuilder.com, is that you can pretty much delete any job offers you get via email.
People send emails saying they've looked at your CV and think you're qualified for this position. It sounds like a real job, the pay isn't too good to be true, and it all seems legit. Until you try to talk to someone. I got a job offer from a company called Bat-Tour, and decided to google it. I didn't find much, because apparently they used to go by Petra-Tour. It's a check cashing scam. I want to know why careerbuilder and other sites are letting these people through. Granted, I know there are a lot of people and profiles on those sites, but COME ON! Sometimes I'll get two or three emails a day. Thankfully, most of the job sites have a "report fraud" or similar option. I'm definitely using it!
I found a site that has a bunch of information about scams and fraud. It's got fake emails, job scams, get-rich-quick schemes, and plenty of other warnings and articles. What's really cool is that anyone can send in a scam that isn't on there yet. Of course, good luck finding one someone hasn't posted yet. :)

And so, I continue my quest for employment. I'm slightly afraid to go outside in my little Grand Prix. If my sister's van gets stuck in the snow, how the heck am I supposed to get around? First thing I'm getting when I have a steady income: a truck! :D
