Telephone number +85223873389 is being used as part of an Employment Scam Scam by someone claiming to be "Priscilla J. Claudio", Advertising Manager at Woodtai Enterprises Ltd. and using the email address pclaudio31@aol.com. The telephone number is included in the following Employment Scam email that is being sent to victims:
Hello,

I'm Priscilla J. Claudio, Advertising Manager at Woodtai Enterprises Ltd. We need a Representative to handle Purchase receiving solutions and agreement matters in North America/Canada. The company is in Hong Kong, but your service is needed in the North America/Canada region, If interested, kindly indicate your interest by mailing back for further details.

Note: It is a part time offer that won't interrupt your present work or business.

Looking forward to your response.

Regards.
Priscilla J. Claudio,
Advertising Manager
Woodtai Enterprises Ltd
Address:Block C, G/F, Ming
Court,19-23 Ming Yuen Western
Street,North Point,Hong Kong
Website:http://www.woodtai.com
Tel:+(852) 23873389
The email was sent from the email address ""Priscilla J. Claudio" <johncynthia@marktwain.net>", with the Reply-to address "pclaudio31@aol.com" and the subject "Representative Needed !!!".

The email is an example of an Employment Scam, targeting victims by trying to make them money mules receiving stolen funds from other victims (or even the proceeds of other crimes). Anyone agreeing to receiving funds like this is opening themselves up for major issues as they could be charged with money laundering or even funding terrorism and see their bank accounts closed and credit records flagged.
