I got this text today:
“ Hello, sorry to bother you! I am Anna from Jobsite. We would like to offer you an online remote job. You can earn £100-500 every day, working 60-90 minutes daily, and complete the work whenever and wherever (payment on the same day). However, please note: (you must be at least 25 years old). If you meet the requirements and want to know more information, please reply 'yes' or 'no'.”
Entertainingly, “Anna”, according to the country code of her phone number, is in the Philippines! This is not the first idiotic “job” offer I’ve had recently - and deleted and reported as junk/spam. One claimed to have “recognised” me on LinkedIn. Unlikely as I left LinkedIn when I retired. Anyone else getting them.

I get a number of these emails every week, it is obvious they are scams because the job description is not relevant to my qualifications plus the fact that I am clocking eighty 🙄

I get them as WhatsApp messages, so they simple at, to report and delete.
