I have heard a lot about different kind of scammers in a different sort of bogus operation. That is why i am too hesitant of opening internet banking or any idea relevant on displaying our personal details and information that we are normally do in filing up the form or maybe subscribing newsletters and the like. One of this great advantage for scammers is by using social networking access like FACEBOOK. Be aware, that giving out our personal address and mobile phones, credit cards and anything that we provides in our profile makes up the opportunity for the scammers to use it for their operation to trick and make it realistic using the real personality of someone for their benefits. Too sad, my husband and i just experience this kind of job scammers that we are dealing with recently. Much to our knowledge about the rampant of frauds operation, and scammers everywhere especially on the web, we never knew we could be one of their recent victim too. My husband got an email regarding the opening of the said position of the job from South Africa, glad enough that his contract will be ended soon. He received the mail from www.monsterindia.com stating the job hiring and the qualification of the position. So, my spouse got the opportunity to send his resume thru the contact provided in the email. There was an immediate reply from them. The communication is good enough that i myself said it was God's will hopefully. It offers more benefits and higher salary that we thought. Actually at first, we have doubts but then try to manage and continue negotiating with them after all. Then it comes out they need to work out for the visa and want to deposit 850 GBP for the processing fee. That is indeed a big amount for us. Without realizing and checking or rather we are blinded and ignorant at this time to let it go from our self pocket... to make it short.. We deposited the amount through western union... My husband started to have doubts about them... but still pursue the idea... Later, after they received the money.. True enough, the send the working permit and visa thru email transaction. Then, again... another transaction needed for the release they needed another amount for the release of that visa and permit since they forwarded it to internal affairs.. My husband wanted me to read their reply and making my opinions or suggestion about my statement regarding them. And so we started to investigate the whole thing... their site, their address, their contact nos. internal affairs.. and so on and so fort. We also give feedback to the South African government if their company is legal and is valid to operate in the said country. But we never wait for the government to reply before we act.. We scrutinize the whole thing and found it fraud.. with all the ip adress and all the website they are using seems indeed a bogus operation. This was truly a charged to experience in our life.. Still, i am thanking God that He give us the doubts to unlock ourselves from that said job opportunity. Never to allow ourselves to be once again trap by their pit. Imagine ! we never thought "opportunity will turn into disastrous" that would change our lives into what we think better but rather worst and indeed destruction. What happen next? never knew... my first experience of having this job scam.. What about you? do you have similar experience as we had? share so that everyone will be aware.
