About
Welcome, this forum is dedicated to the prevention of innocent job seekers falling victim to EMPLOYMENT SCAMS, also know as job scams, they are a form of advance fee fraud scamming where certain unscrupulous persons posing as recruiters and/or employers offer attractive employment opportunities which require the job seeker to pay them money in advance, usually under the guise of work visas, travel expenses, and out-of-pocket expenses.

The scams typically involve lucrative offers of employment in Europe, the Middle East, West Africa, or South Africa with money demanded to be paid to an agency or travel agent for visas or travel costs. These companies often present themselves with official looking websites and documentation. Once the victim has paid the advanced fees for employment, the business either declines employment or ceases operating as soon as the transfer is finalized.

This type of scam has become more and more frequent recently due to the popularity of Nigerian 419 scams, and growing suspicion towards e-mails offering to transfer money from bank accounts, especially those originating in Africa. Unlike 419 scams, job scams tend to mostly target persons looking for employment in other nations such as hopeful immigrants or contractors and operate out of nations with high immigrant and foreign employment rates.

It is advisable to be wary of any job offerings which arrive in e-mail unsolicited and eventually require anyone to pay a fee in advance, particularly if the fee is asked to be paid through a financial services company such as Western Union, or if one must pay the amount to a bank or person in a third country (especially a West African nation) that is suspiciously unrelated to either party. Most reputable companies and/or agencies will absorb these costs themselves if they are the ones seeking the employee.

All the companies listed in this forum are know to be bogus. They often use Yahoo or other FREE e-mail addresses so if you are suspicious about an e-mail you have received, try entering the company name, e-mail address(s) etc. into the search box bellow this text to see if this has been reported by someone else.

If you cannot find any details of the suspect company by searching for it, please let us know by posting a NEW TOPIC with the fraudulent company name in the SUBJECT LINE together with a brief description of the company in the bigger text box.

Your post will be reviewed and approved by a moderator of this site ASAP.

Definitely a scam. I believe we had people/bots jump on this forum trying to advertise it too, unsuccessfully of coarse due to getting banned.
