Warning To All Job Seekers by ogedanny: 10:47pm On Feb 26, 2017
From my inbox

Amanda,Greetings from Lagos.pls help me share cos I know most of your followers are here in Lagos. its God that
saved me yesterday.I applied for a job via Jiji on Monday, on Wednesday I was called for interview in Maryland Lagos.I got to Maryland took a bike to the location for the interview. When I got to the lonely building in mende there in Maryland, Okada dropped me and left, no one to ask a question, I called the number that was attached to the message of interview to tell him I'm at the venue, he picked and said his men are downstairs, I looked around and saw two men, the looks on their faces was not funny.They asked me to open the message for them to see, I opened it, after Reading they said I belong to room one, that I should switch off my phone b4 climbing the stairs, I told them I'm not expecting any call, they said its compulsory.I asked them how long the interview will last and they said 3 to 4hrs, I was tired. I told them to give me a minute let me inform my pple that I won't be hD
me early as I told them, l went towards the gate to call my sister, as I was answering the call two men came down making them four, they started shouting on me that I'm wasting their time that is like I'm not ready for the job.As this was happening a guy from no where came behind me all I heard was "my case is different "and I said so is mine.

He said he saw the winners bangle I was wearing that I should meet him outside the gate. I followed him, he asked what brought me here, I told him I came for an interview, he said I should thank my God that I saw him if not it will be a different story by evening.That I should leave the place immediately that the pple are using charms on pple. I thanked him and entered a bike that dropped one guy at the gate there and left. They called and called I no pick.This morning they sent a text that my interview has been rescheduled.Lets be vigilant with online Jobs I have not been myself since yesterday, have been on thoughts. But I thank God for saving cos I don't know what the story could have been. Family Pls let be careful OK. Luv u all.

The Op ogedanny, if this story is true what stops the fellow that had this encounter from exposing the names and address of this organization to the police, EFCC and even on this forum so the place will be raided and investigated and as well innocent lives will be saved from visiting there.


It will be suspicious and even pure wickedness if the supposed escape
victim refuses to expose this place.


I always get to hear stories like this but funny enough he names and addresses are never disclosed thereby encouraging the evil to continue.

Did you say Mende Maryland? Thats the location on the text I got too. shocked Hmmm. Wonders!


But my question is the guy that helped u cos he saw winners bangle...so he helps ppl based on church affiliation? Cos if I had honored the text, and ur guy saw me, I most probably would not be wearing any church sticker...I can't help but imagine how he would have let me go in. Only God knows how many were taken simply because their "case was not different"..

Just saying

Good one. But one thing I'm sure of is that this didn't happen in Mende. Mende is a small residential area and is not that deserted for something fishy like this to happen there.

I don't believe this story one bit. So something as serious as this is happening n u cldnt go straight to the police to accompany u to the place? U were comfortable enough to allow others go in to meet their death as long as 'ur case is different '? Abeg tell us the d exact address of the building make we go raid am

FAKE Story

Various versions of this story keeps springing up. Forwarded as received Sounds like a viral WhatsApp BC.

I laugh grin

Why not post the company, or job vacancy you applied for. Better still the address. If I were to escape something like this, I'm going to a media house first, then a police station. One cannot just keep quiet.

You thanked him and entered a bike that dropped one guy at the gate there and left. Without asking the guy if he too came for interview, so you could save him too?

Its always a church bangle, calendar, sticker or the pastors picture. The MOD fall my hand to push this to FP.

I agree that evil men use recruitments to perpetrate evil deeds and job seekers need to be cautious, but this particular story is FAKE!

Not jiji, on all jobsite. These guys are getting smarter. Some no longer use gmail. They now have websites and custom emails. Due diligence is required at all times.
