Now considering how many resumes/contact that spammer got from monster.com .. he can easily send many fake job openings to members of monster and if any one falls in this trap,the spammer can then ask for a insurance fee or something like that and then flee with the money.

I have have used monster and other job sites ( as a recruiter ). you cannot immagine how much data is available there.
