nttemps.net / ntmps.net / ntmps.com recruitment scam

Net-Temps, Inc is a real company, these emails do not come from Net-Temps, Inc and follow on from a series of fraudulent emails pretending to be from this company. This time around the scammers appear to be using the domains nttemps.net and ntmps.net (update: they are also using ntmps.com)

These so-called jobs are usually money mule (money laundering) operations or some other criminal "back office" activity which should be avoided at all costs.

netmps.com scam job offer

Another scam email from a fake company calling itself NetTemps Inc (there are several legitimate companies with similar names though). The job itself is likely to be money laundering or some other illegal activity.

Nettms.net / Nettps.net "NetTemps Inc" scam

This fraudulent job offer solicits replies to an email address of cv@nettms.net  and it pretends to be from "NetTemps Inc". There is a legitimate firm in the US of a similar name, but this job offer is not from them.

It's the same scam as this one, but in this case the back-end servers are different.. the mailed replies go to 204.12.229.89 [Hosting Ventures LLC, US] with a web site hosted at 95.64.133.205 in Russia along with another similar domain of Nettps.net.

Anyway, this job offer is probably laundering stolen money or some other criminal activity and should be avoided at all costs.

nettempsin.co.uk / NetTemps Inc scam

There are probably plenty of legitimate companies with names like "NetTemps Inc", but this money mule scam email soliciting replies to nettempsin.co.uk is not from one of them.

==================================

Unusually, the mail server that deals with replies is multihomed:

• 79.125.134.191 [ADSL subscriber, Macedonia]
• 91.41.145.247 [Deutsche Telekom dial-up subscriber, Germany]
• 83.132.68.62 [TVCABO cable modem, Portugal]
• 87.116.150.117 [Broadband customer, Serbia]
• 186.137.3.195 [Cablevision customer, Argentina]

Nameservers are ns1.santroperz.net (domain suspended by registrar for fraud) and ns1.seerdanee.com hosted on 204.12.237.52 at WholeSale Internet, Inc. in Kansas City.

In any case, this is just a Money Mule scam and it should be avoided.
