If the English in this e-mail is any indication of how this business is
structured and run, then I would not want any part of this deal. Besides I
asked him for a BEEG deposit in USD (non-refundable of course) to see my
resume and then to pony up some more bucks before I signed a contract. Funny
that he never replied. Even cuter that he is now using a different address.
Even though we may be doing business a different way, the phrase "Caveat
Emptor" definitely applies. I may have been born in the middle of the night,
but it was not last night!
