The emails may *look* like they come from India in the headers but know that spammers use proxies to camouflage their identity and camouflage their computers......

Open up the headers and forward the entire email with the headers showing to spam at uce dot gov.  Only do this if these are in your personal or business email account.  Not necessary to do it if you are using a generic email account such as hotmail or yahoo.  That is the email for the govt to go after spammers. 

Been getting these types of spam emails for 12 years now!!  But I learned and I never give out my most personal email account except to the very chosen few....and as a result I never or very rarely get a spammed email in that particular account.

Has anyone else heard about this?  It seems transcription work isn't the only thing that can be done cheaper in India - surgery is cheaper too.  After seeing this story, I think we might have to worry about more than MT work going there. 

This was a very interesting story.  I had no idea it was even happening.  If you missed it on TV, you can view it online (it's less than 10-minutes long) if you go to:

http://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/ 

Then on the upper righthand side, click on Webcast:  Nightline Online, then right under that is Nightline Online:  Health Care Travel (it starts out with a commercial first).

My first thought was along the lines of no way would I ever go all the way to India for surgery (and I still wouldn't want to), but after seeing the Nightline piece, I can see how it's a reasonable option for some people, because of the lower price and what looked like great care. 

Our health care system is in such a scary state though, when U.S. citizens are having to travel to India for surgery they can afford.  Unbelievable. 

They also had an interesting story about little clinics springing up in places like Walmart:
