We will provide you with a high-salary job offer which also has flexible working hours.

Why I Think It's a Scam

Firstly their email is very unprofessional, there is no signature at the end. When I checked for the company on GOOGLE I found nothing, not even a website!

I replied back asking for more information on the company, and I was sent a blank email with two attachments, one a form & one a vague description of the job.

Even the address is dodgy.

Advice

  • Even though I'm currently employed I know how it feels when your out of university and on a job hunt. And these scams are just not acceptable.
  • Please check on google (location, website, if there are any previous scams) & ask them zillion questions before you go for the interview.
