Hello,
I have received the following email and a few other after this one. All of them use a professional language and there's nothing suspicious about the content, except for the fact that their email address is a gmail one and the fact that there is no mention whatsoever in the official website (getblend.com) of offices or affiliates in Argentina. I contacted the official website, but I haven't received a response. Just a few minutes ago, they sent me an NDA which is a generic blank form downloaded from the internet.
Am I being paranoid here or is there something suspicious? The fee seems rather generous as well ($0.30/word), but the material is rather complex.
