Probably because you have your resume all over the internet. It's really easy to dig up resumes(CV's) in this case . I'm sure your NYSC data and all your info is on your resume. Don't send your CV to fishy looking email addresses and you'll be able to reduce this kind of spam

It's a cheap and very common scam...It's your choice to ignore it. Your data was taken from your NYSC year book.
Some of them sometimes claim to be from Shell (most common) or NNPC.
Don't fall for it...it's too cheap.

i got a cal frm a guy lik dat.he has fantastic info abt me,promisin contract @nnpc.i uploaded d no nhj.stop sendin cv 2suspicious emails,dats whr dey gt d info.its ur turn 2dy,i could b ur refree 2mr

They got your info from the magazine....
I received such call too....but from a guy claiming to be from shell, says he is darlington.
They are all fools....
Beware!

Well said guys, i wonder why people would want to scam applicants or even anybody without any fear of God at all. when i got that text, i read it over and over trying to remember whether i have ever met anyone with the said name, but not at all.the question that came to me immediately was why the sudden contact after almost two years of my discharge from nysc, He didn't call to know how i was doing only to call out of the blue referring to himself as 'MR'.i wonder why am even withholding the name
