Warner Bros Cast Search

Hey there people

I have received a most peculiar email. It purports to be from Warner Bros, and says that I have been 'selected to apply and participate as an "Act" in the induction, casting and making of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince." '

It says that I must submit a formal application by 20th Sept, to include the following:
1.full names

2.Mailing address

3.Telphone /fax numbers

4.Recent photograph (scan and send via email)

5.Sex/nationality/marital status
As well as saying that travel arrangements will be arranged for me.

Has anyone else received one of these??? I haven't applied for anything at Warner, ever. I hadn't even been to their website, until I was trying to look them up to check if it was legit.

What do you guys think?? I don't reckon it is.

Thanks,
Jess

In reading tessarae's posting, I found a connection- I am also a science teacher, so its possible that they got our names from a purchased ( or ripped off) mailing list- I was just researching this mail to find out if anyone knew who was originating it,so that information could be forwarded to WB's legal staff....
spammer suck, but ripoff artists like these guys should be worked over.
