Surely anyone with half a brain would not give these idiots anything for $65.93.
I guess 1 in 1000 may and that’s all they need to cause havoc with the myHR etc.
As I have often said – just stay away and avoid suss e-mails!
I just love the "Sincerly" typo and all!!! Hopeless and annoying ratbags they are!
