Two new domains being used to recruit for fake jobs, which actually turn out to be illegal activities such as money laundering.

jobbworld.com
yourjobb.com

This is part of a long-running scam that has been going on for ages. One characteristic of the spam received is that it appears to come from your own email address (here’s why).

If you have any examples of spam using these domains for reply addresses, please consider sharing them in the Comments.
