Infopulse Ukraine appears to be a legitimate software development company, but this email that claims to be from them is certainly not legitimate. Tell-tale signs are the free email address (rather than using infopulse.com.ua and the fact that this sort of money transfer operation appears to be an easy way to earn money doing very little.. which means that it will be some sort of money laundering operation. Avoid.

Hello Sir/Madam,
I am Alexey Sigov, Director of Infopulse Ukraine Ltd
specializes in innovative IT solutions and complex software projects development.
My company based in Ukraine. We've earned ourselves a reputation of a
reliable and trustworthy partner working successfully with a number of
West European companies and providing them with reliable software
development services in financial and media sectors.
Unfortunately we are currently facing some difficulties with receiving
payments for our services. It usually takes us 10-30 days to receive
a payment and clearing from your country and such delays are harmful
to our business. We do not have so much time to accept every wire transfer.
That's why we are currently looking for partners in your country to help
us accept and process these payments faster.
If you are looking for a chance to make an additional profit you can
become our representative in your country. As our representative you will
receive 8% of every deal we conduct. Your job will be accepting funds in
the form of wire transfers and forwarding them to us.
It is not a full-time job, but rather a very convenient and fast way
to receive additional income. We also consider opening an office in your
country in the nearest future and you will then have certain privileges
should you decide to apply for a full-time job. Please if you are
interested in transacting business with us we will be very glad.
Please contact me for more information via email:
and send us the following information about yourself: jobinfopulse@gmail.com
1. Your Full Name as it appears on your resume.
2. Education.
3. Your Contact Address.
4. Telephone/Fax number.
5. Your present Occupation and Position currently held.

Please respond and we will provide you with additional details on how you

Thanks for the info, just received this and one google search sorted it out.
The message is surely not from Infopulse.
On behalf of Infopulse Ukraine I would like to aknowledge that this mailing is not made by Infopulse nor by request of Infopulse.
The issue is proceeded to Internet Crime Compliant Center.
I'm just wondering what do they need my personal information for?
i have replied them once. i hope nothing will happen... what do u think?
Just to restate this - Infopulse are NOT behind this fraud, the scammers are just using the Infopulse name to gain credibility.
I also received this email. some people really have no shame...I wonder if some people got tricked by this person sending those mails.
