"We are Looking for Employees Working Remotely" Phishing Emails

Here's one I got today:
New text message from (978) 785-7728

"Good day. My name is Cecelia Prudhomme, I got your information through Applicant tracking system. I would like to know if you can work remotely from your location as a Personal Assistant for 10-30 Hours Weekly $30 per hour. Get back to me if you are interested so I can feed you with more details about the job."

Hi. Can you help me stop getting these messages? I'm not even old enough to work and its scaring me because they seem to already have info about me and I don't know how!
Please, PLEASE PLEEEAASSSSE help!

Flag the email messages as spam or junk. This will cause your email account to automatically move the emails to your junk/spam folder.

I got the same email scam from kattvalp-ikillclowns.com. Beware.

my BitDefender said it stopped me from going into it; does that mean I am safe?

Yes, you are safe once you didn't submit your personal information, financial information, or download and install software on your computer or mobile device.

I literally have got 9 of these emails.

I got one from an Ali with email: sesn-sfk.dk.

I use Outlook and created a couple of rules for the subject line and they went straight to the trash. Problem solved.

You can mark it as junk, it will still come through thick and fast! How can this be stopped?

Hello,

Yes, I receive up to 20 of these very annoying emails per day and I just delete them. They keep coming and coming every single day usually overnight but sometimes during the day. The content is the same each time with a different email address.

I contacted IT support and there was not much they could do. I also contacted the FBI and our Australian internet scam authorities. All I can say is it is a scam you can see right through but very time consuming to rid your computer of these emails every day. I think eventually the FBI will stop this.

I realised what this scam email was straight away and set the emails to block sender but this does not work is there any other way to block these e mails on my pc thanks.

Blocking the sender will not work because the scammers change the "from" address the emails are coming from.

Try flagging the emails as spam or junk; the spam filter will block the emails based on content.

Can you help me please. These emails are coming in from my own email address into my own inbox! How do I stop them using my email address as my box does not appear to be hacked?

Your email address has not been hacked. What the scammers or spammers are doing is spoofing your email address.

Try flagging the emails as spam,and let your spam filter send them to your spam or junk folder.

I accidentally clicked on the message and it opened up, but I never went to another site or followed any instruction, actually I closed up the window inmediately, I wonder if that way can I be affected?

No. Not unless you were taken to a phishing website and entered your information, or download and install a malicious app.
