SCAM - Cunard River Cruises

Post by The Dieselduck »

This guys has been pretty aggressive in pursuing his scam on LinkedIn, the business social media website. This is at least the second time Ive seen a variation of this spoof of Cunard, all indicators point towards a definite scam. Here's his standard schtick....

There is no such thing as Cunard operating a river cruising division. Please correct me if I am wrong. If they did, they would not have a Yahoo email address. I strongly suspect they are running a scam targeting seafarers. I think this is plain wrong and illegal. Cunard recruits from its own website which can be found at http://www.oceanopportunities.com . If you have "connected" to this fraudulent account on LinkedIn, I suggest you "de-connect" asap as you are aiding this charade.
