I registered to this forum to warn others. I also received an email from a Dennis Shore who pretended to need a translator for an assignment. He sent the following email:
Hello X,
I got your contact from ACJT. I'm contacting you in regard to an English content document worth 11,638 words (44 Pages). I need this document translated into French. I would like to know if you are interested and available to get this done for me. Please get back to me to discuss further and ... See more I registered to this forum to warn others.

I started the text and I noticed that the text to translate was fishy, meaning that it was copied from other sources from the internet and was sometimes incoherent. Moreover, Dennis Shore wanted to know information like my daily limit from my bank. He decided to send to me double the amount agreed without checking with me if it was correct because he wanted me to do another assignment in that project. He sent me the exact same email that was sent to another member of this forum (about the death in the family of his sponsor, etc.). I called him out and he disappeared.
Thank you so much to this member who reported this Dennis shore!
I wish I could do more to warn others, but it's a good reminder to be careful with these so-called "clients".
I hope that everyone is safe. ▲ Collapse

| Scam email for translation | Jul 16 |
I received an email with the same subject title using ata@ata.net directory email. This was from Flickinger Elizabeth flickingerelizabeth78@gmail.com. Though I informed that I am on vacation for few more days I received an another email with the document to translate without confirming the rates so it created some doubts. It says scam on Google search too.

Hi dear community members,
I also received a similar message from a John Andreas via the OTTIAQ portal July 13 2024. I found the document a bit fishy and decided to check with the community and I'm glad I did. As soon as I said that I wanted to make sure it's not a scam, the person stopped answering. Beware of this scammer

I'm pleased to know you are interested in handling this project. However, I will require your service to translate the attached English document. In the meantime, could you also confirm your charges per page, per source word or for the entire translation. The deadline for this Project is 1 month starting from 15/July/2024. Finally, I'm proposing a mobile deposit check for the payment. Please do not hesitate to confirm if this is okay with you. I look forward to reading from you soon.
Best Regards,
John ▲ Collapse

Hi, I just got this scam; Public Organisation Procedures Research Phase 1, from Kathrine,
Katherinetaylor1988@outlook.com
I emailed back, no longer for me..
| | | | | Same message from Mercedes Waldrop | Aug 19 |
I got exactly the same message with the exact same attachment (LUKSO Organization Creative Research Phase 1) from Mercedes Waldrop (who seems to be a registered translator here, but no other details could be found anywhere) asking for a translation from English into Catalan.
Happy that my scammer radar put me on alert after the first email. And relieved to have found this thread to confirm my suspicions after the second email.

After a few exchange, she asked me about:
1. Full Name to be written on the Check
2. Full Physical Address:
