Scam Check: Bahamas Agent Job Offer

We received an email asking if a job offer by Bahamas Agent is a scam.

We have no information about this agent so far. However, we noted that the career page on the website does not have a job offer for agents working from home.

Another thing to check is the email address of the sender, make sure that it is from the same company by sending an email directly to them and asking for their direct reply. This helps to check to make sure that you are talking to who they claim they are. After that, we will need to find out more about the job offer.

If anyone has any information, leads, evidence or comments, please feel free to submit to through our comment section listed below.

16 Dec 08 Update:
We have updated this article and apparently the offer came from a scammer who uses a free email address.
The offer in this email is a scam, and is not from the real Bahamas Agent.
