Is it Fake ? Jun 30, 2008
I have received a private msg on my dubai forum account offering me jobs of different catagories in Brunel Hotel (Head Office Address 79-81 Gloucester Terrace, London,UK). They asked me to send my C.V to them. I send them my C.V. NOW they have send me an application form and have asked me to print it, fill it and send it to Online U.k Immigration Office Information Travel Agency london : britishimmidept@london.com for further procedure.
i want to ask wether its a fake or not ?

"identity theft"

i wouldn't send them anymore information, particularly personal information such as social security or identity numbers....

Scam. Later on they will say your application has been approved but you need to Western Union them some "processing fee" for your Visa. For more info on online scammers visit www.419eater.com or thescambaiter.com.

Its quite irritaing how wide spread these scammers are getting you really can't do anything online nowadays with bumping into them. I've been even getting dubai based 419 scammer. Even dubizzle is even filled with them. So be very carefull doing anything online these days. Also always check the real email address the mail came from. Like recently I received a "paypal payment" very authentic looking even but reply address was xxx@accountant.com

In your case @london.com is a free email domain name. Even I have one at ID with @london.com.

Go to mail.com and you can select from almost hundreds of domain name ID's some even very profressional sounding.

So GUY BE ALWAYS ON YOUR TOES AND NEVER SEND MONEY TO ANYONE YOU MET ON THE INTERNET.

Surely this is a scam and reputed companies never go for a recruitment drive like this
