Why do you think it's a scam out of curiosity? They haven't really offered anything apart from to talk to them which, to be fair, will most likely be a sales pitch with promises of riches and fortune.

Unless your CV isn't on total jobs...in which case it probably is.

Just that it mentions neither the products or the company name. If it's really as good as they make out, why wouldn't they do that?
