So wait, are they trying to sell something to unemployed people?

I'm guessing the spam bot mistook the "Who wants to be hired" thread for a "Who's hiring" thread. The bot creator needs to tweak their prompt - or, more ideally, they need to get a life.

You will find the unemployed are a prime target for scammers/grifters.

Targeting the desperate is profitable.

  • A former employer once had Christmas layoffs. Their way to help was preemptively giving these scammers a list of everyone's contact info as "relocation assistance".
