Let's see:

  • Yellow flags:
    • Company name written in lowercase
    • Entire job spec contained within ad
  • Red flags:
    • Email address a GMail address, even though this is supposedly a paper company
    • Googling this company's name returns no relevant hits
    • Mention of "bids"
    • "We'll pay you via PayPal"

Edit: Looks like j.p.o shot it down already, which is the first time I've seen em apparently yank a dumb ad. (Not that they get a lot of dumb ads, them not exactly being Craig's List.) Nice going! Too bad I didn't get a screenshot, though...

Ha ha! That lasted about ten minutes. Good going on the j.p.o watchdogs.

Too bad I shut my window before I could take a screenshot!
