An e-mail from [email protected] (the other was, as well):

____________________

Hello,
I am the CEO of {omitted} company. We have opened a new game creation section, for new Java enabled cellular phones:

{Web Site URL}

I noticed you developed RPG (zelda like) games.

We are doing two engines for RPG games, much like Legend of Zelda and Pokemon in Gameboy Color. Of course we will require to make the graphics and story for these engines.

Finally, would be one or more of you, or people you are in touch with, able and available to work for us (as tele-work) in doing the RPG graphics and story, help to code maybe too? In that case we may pay hourly or by completed job.

Regards,

Fabio

Sounds like pot-O-gold at the end of the rainbow!:kawaii:
I hope you won't get copyright-problems with a very special software company. *cough, cough*

Meh. A programmer I ain't, but I just chuckled at the thought of getting that msg.

Instead of gloating that someone mistook you for a sprite artist, maybe you should direct him to someone who might be of some help? FlashMan for instance. Sounds like an excellent opportunity to do real work.

They just saw the forums and decided e-mail you. Or is a joke. Who knows.

Wonder why they didn't contact DN or OZ? Maybe because you are the DB head...they thought you were the one in charge? Sounds sort of fishy.

They can't be much cop themselves, if they have to resort browsing the internet for potential employees... That, or it is a joke.

Even fishier that they picked out my more personal address; I don't think I mentioned my ZC addy on there in any general location (besides my own profile, mayhaps).

Of course, as always, I could be mistaken.

Well I'm sorry if I dont get it, but personaly I don't think a blank e-mail sheet is of any interest of mine. If it is something good for you Cyclone, congrats.

Yes, that's what you get if you read nothing but the first line of a post. That hyperlink is just Cyclone's email adress, the actual email he's talking about is right below that in the same damned message.

JayeM: Who is that Fabio then, and how do you know him..?

I did read the whole thing. You should lighten up a little though. It is really irrtating me.
