Am I Dealing With Scammers Or Genuine People. by AkaweEmmanuel: 9:35pm On Sep 04, 2020
Who has ever heard of Kier construction ltd in UK?
The company after a procedure of questionnaire and other forms filling, gave me an employment and invitation letter to come over to UK and work with them. I have included it in.
They sent me a mail to forward my passport and other details to JULI for visa and other documents processing.
that they have paid for every thing except delivery money.

I have followed up with the visa procedure, they asked me to renew my passport cause it expired, I renewed it at immigration office in abuja here.

What is the problem, 1, this visa processing is done in uk. they now request for 500 pounds for delivery. I know not if this is a scam or true. please do find attached the mails i got from them.
where do i comfirm this?

Remove your shoes, put it under your armpit and run as fast as your bare legs can carry you.
The real company might be recruiting but someone in naija is cashing in on it.
Why will a company that paid for everything be requesting 500pounds? Think am now.

I almost fell for this same format last month but along the way I paused and did some digging.
Las Las na curse we curse ourselves cos their bubble burst.

Thank God you paused to inquire from others.

The first rule of scam is: If it smells like scam fish it is a scam fish.
The moment you think it is a fraud is your opportunity to escape.

Why will a company do everything for you and request for courier fees. Worst case, tell them you cant afford that fee now and see how you will draw them out.

Again, baba, na scam.

i sent them a mail that i do not have that money.
below is their responz

DEAR AKAWE EMMANUEL, Your mail is well
received and I personally spoke to the head of
immigration agency to accept 300GBP from you
after considering your message. The policy
started because of the COVID-19, so none of the
diplomats wants to travel to Africa. I advise you
therefore to raise the amount and send as
directed..
Regards, Mrs. Catherine Jackson.

Getting a UK work visa is extremely difficult if you aren't in IT or healthcare. It's not a walk in the park. Run away.

This is purely scam. I got a mail sometime last year with the same format, but the useless guys said it was a training in the US, that everything has been taking care of, that the only thing left is for me to pay for my hotel reservation. I knew it was a scam but i decided to tag along.

I asked them for details, they provided one of their account details and told me to pay into the account.

I asked them why should i pay into that account and not pay when i get there. Na so dem begin dey insult their generations with their bad English.

We need to be more careful peeps.

What do you want to hear again? Go ahead and send them money na, that method is even outdated, i wonder why those guys are still using it.

It's been two years since one chatted my sister that they own the company build US - Mexico wall for Trump.

Better carry your money go play Bet9ja if you don't know what to use it for.
