What do you think about this?
I'm currently studying at a prestigious university in Dallas. They have what they laughably call a career placement officer who occasionally sends out information about job postings.
It looks to me as if their latest offering is...
...to shill for spammers
and at 13 to 23 an hour
I especially like the bit where they say
"Understand email legislation and implications"
not to mention
"Maximize deliverability of email by analyzing delivery reports and recommending or implementing improvements"
also, I like that the campaigns are
"highly dynamic".
Is that because the Office of the Attorney General is hot on their trail?
If they ran a criminal background check, would previous convictions actually help?
What do you all think? Am I reading this correctly?

Hi Onan,
Sounds suspiciously like spamming, doesn't it..
Take the job and find the home email addreses of the CEO and every manager. Then I'll get every security expert I know to send off all the nasty files they've collected over the years, to them. If you can find any weak spots in the office's network system, then we could do that as well
Impractical I know.. but a nice thought for a Friday..
Cheers
Liam
