I asked how she got to know me and she didn't answer me.
I search the first sentence of the material she gave to me and want me to translate "What do organizations use conflict management for? "
I am glad that the google search result lead me to here. ▲ Collapse

And this was the text to be translated from English to French:
PUBLIC ORGANISATION PROCEDURES RESEARCH PHASE 1
What do organizations use conflict management for?
For any organization to be effective and efficient in achieving its goals, the people in the organization need to have a shared vision of what they are striving to achieve, as well as clear objectives for each team / department and individual. You also need ways of recognizing and resolving conflict amongst people, so that conflict does not become so serious that co-operation is impossible. All members of any organization need to have ways of keeping conflict to a minimum - and of solving problems caused by conflict, before conflict becomes a major obstacle to your work. This could happen to any organization, whether it is an NGO, a CBO, a political party, a business or a government. ▲ Collapse

I received the same email from someone named Brendan. He sent me emails and then he sent me a check through FedEx urgent. When I deposit the check to my account, at first the bank accepted the check then after two days they rejected the check stated that the check was Fraud. I was fine by the bank but I don't know how much they charge me for depositing fraud check. Advice: please use google when you are suspected of something.
Thank you,

I don't understand why some of our colleagues are reluctant to check on a regular (weekly) basis the Scam section. It is informative and at the same time can prevent us to fall victims to these scams.
Maybe the Proz staff should post a Warning, instructing members and non-members to check the SCAM section on a regular basis.
Stay safe

PS. Another newcomer fell for the scam. I think that Irina's suggestion is golden.
