Well I guess I should have expected the number of home based work email scams to increase, but for me to get two (2) in one (1) day is crazy and the day isn't over yet.

This email is supposedly about a home based opportunity with Advan Group LTD. When I first saw the email in my "Junk" folder I figured I could ignore it, but with our economy heading south, there may be more folks tempted by this message and replying to it is a very bad idea. This, like most scam emails, suffer from what I would call a lack of understanding of the english language. What I mean by that is that the email doesn't read right.

• The reply to address (where the message was sent from) and the manager's email address were from separate domains - heidenheim.com and gmail.com respectively.

• The wording of the message isn't quite right. There are punctuation, verb tense, and grammar issues in the message.

• The email says you will be working over 4 hours a day Monday through Friday, but only 16 hours a week
