Fake emails titled "RE: Your Job Application" inform users about the approval of a supposed application they have submitted and report:

If you are still looking for employment, please visit the websiteσελίδα us and fill in some additional information, via the following link.”
The site to which users are redirected varies according to their location. However, experts have found that in most cases, victims are transferred to a website where they are urged to iLivid (tool bar), Ask Toolbar and Torch Browser .
