Hey NLders,

I'm a Mechanical Engineer with one of the telecom maintenance firms here in Lagos, but since this corona virus outbreak, things have been shaky kind of.
So I filled out some online job search through various platforms, and this morning I got a call from one of the "Dubai recruitment agents" (Jobs in Dubai) asking me to activate my account through a link and pay $85CAD.
This ones are claiming that if I get the job, the employer will cover all the travel cost, but as a Lagos guy with years of "Scam experience", I say make I confirm first from the Ogas in the house. Please help a brother out.

Has anyone in here travelled through this means, or had any encounter with such "agents"?

Your response will be appreciated.

. See, these people are confirmed scammer. I ran to their hands sometime around 2013 seeking for jobs in Dubai. I knew they are scammer. The day I got to Dubai myself, I confirmed it. They are not real. So, run
