Fraudsters. The diplomas they offer come from non-accredited places. They're a diploma mill. If you seriously think an employer is going to take a "degree" from these people seriously, send your money straight to me. I won't blow sunshine up your chimney. I'll spend it on beer.

Any spam containing 718-989-5740 should be ignored and auto-deleted. Set your e-mail filters to get rid of the number with and without hyphens and other characters.

If you get lots of unwanted email, that means you've left your email address on lots of "shady" websites, or lots of your friends have gotten their computers infected, and the criminals stole your email address from their computers :)  Or, your email address is posted on your employers website and criminal web crawlers find them.

The ONLY solution that works to minimize unwanted email is to CHANGE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS! As the email admin for a small company, I occasionally change employee accounts because their email addresses have leaked out to criminals. My employer's new website does not advertise employee email addresses in plain "mailto:" syntax.  I change my personal home email addresses after they leak out to criminals due to friends infected computers and other problems. In the future, email addresses must be considered "disposable" in order to maintain personal sanity - or you have the resources to have a personal secretary who goes through all your annoying spam, and is smart enough to know what is spam so you don't loose important stuff, whose life is annoyed by crap email!
