Today I received my third email from someone claiming to be a Daniel Suarte, writing about filing open IT positions. However, I’ve never heard of this person before and I have no company or positions to fill. Clearly, this lamer is a spammer. He’s posting from a gmail account Daniel.Suarte@gmail.com. The email was not sent via gmail.

What a llamah.

    Just got one today. I can’t believe he didn’t proofread his email. He used “fee’s” when he meant to use “fees”. If you’re going to initiate a professional correspondence, at least use proper grammar. Plus, are there really “millions” of IT/Engineering candidates out there? Sounds a little inflated to me.

    Yes I too received an e-mail. And who would send in an IT requirement without any contact details? This nut seems to have no work!
