It never fails! Register at a job site, or try to get your resume out as much as possible and then just watch the number of “Work from Home” offers and “Great financial opportunity” spams come rolling in, including some that try to hide as legit responses to your resume.

Yeah well, given that you don’t have your own email domain, nor a physical address, I’m not dumb enough to think you actually have anything to offer me. 🙂
