    Raising a child is akin to knowing you're getting fired in 18 years and having to train your replacement without actively sabotaging them.

    Did you apply for the job? If not, ditch it. Most of the jobs that they send you "offers" for are actually money laundering schemes. Be careful - if you get involved with them you can end up prosecuted.

    I get an email every day for some "business" that is a laundry scheme. They say they "saw" my resume online and think I'd be a terrific candidate. Really? You saw my resume and 1. think I'm in any way interested in anything involved with bookkeeping 2. Think I'm a moron?

    If you have posted a resume and it's a job that actually looks like it fits what you posted, Ask for info. If they say anything about collecting any money for them - stay away from it. The only money a "real" company will offer is a paycheck - and even then, that doesn't guarantee they're legit and will pay.

    the first question is did you apply to the so called Helms society in the first place? If no, google it out, if u cannot find legit information about them, ditch them. better still, if you have the luxury of time you probably can try out what they have to offer and when you sniff anything involving you paying money to them-RUN!!!

      Did you put your resume online looking for work? Criminals troll those places looking to rip off unsuspecting people. If it sounds like a good offer, due diligence might turn up what you need to know before biting on this. Dig deep, even if turns out to be a legit company, the offer might not have come from them.

      Ditto what HeySal said above.
