All I did was write up business proposals to investors and two responded under the names Ramy Tadrous and John Mills about trying to invest and I do not believe it is real even with this e-mail in response to me questioning this Mr. Shmith and his poor grammar/formatting and not really knowing this company:
"Dear ,
I am surely understand your concerns in this case but I think you absolutely don't have to worry about a legitimacy of our company follow this link:

Tel. Number (USA) +1 (646) 779 9569"
When you call the USA number it goes to some voice system where you can leave a message and that's it.
The last straw of this operation in me 100% knowing it is a scam was this e-mail after Ramy Tadrous said he could not invest/send his money to one company because of his bank not allowing him to wire transfer internationally. I cannot either with my bank, but they had the audacity to send me this and think it would work believing I would take money and send it elsewhere and they would have my bank information.
"Dear ***
I've checked the information about Mr Tadrous and he really said to Flint that he can't send money internationally because of some issues with his bank account. He also can't transfer the money to our company bank as it's registered in the UK.
I spoke with the management and with manager of Flint Lighting regarding the opportunity to involve you into this case.
At first, I was refused but I assured the management that we can trust you. And now I want to speak with you regarding this opportunity.
Look, my idea. If he really wants to invest, but does not have such possibility then
you will contact him and offer to send the money to yours USA bank account on behalf our company and Flint Lighting and then you will resend it to their purpose. Mr. Tadrous is planning to invest the money in parts. You will able to get your commission 5% for each transaction right away.
If he will invest it would be very good for you and the company.
It will give a good career goals to our management to think about assigning you for manager position in our USA branch.
So please make some thoughts about my idea and let me know what you think about all this.
Thanks and have a nice day!

They almost had me with it being incorporated on the UK companies website, but a scam is a scam and this is just hurtful to someone looking for a job and wasting their time. Hopefully, they do not try to steal my bank information or money or anything, but only time will tell.
