This afternoon I get a mail from an agent about a contract for something I have no idea of, not even my field, couldn't even work out the job description but they did say that they are waiting for further information. Approximately one hour later I get the same mail from a different agency with exactly the same specs but this time with a rate (no location on either.) Whats interesting is that its from the same agent. This one I'm going to reply to, normally they just get ignored but the S3 group just seem to send out randomly propositions without knowing the person whom they're sending them to. Dear agents, read the person's bloody profile first.

Dear Agent,
Why don't you take a running jump at yourself?
If this role is not suitable for you, please accept our apologies and forward it to anyone you know who might be interested.
Yours,
