It borders me when I refresh my page only to see people arguing about credit card or scammer sending me email.

Issue of credit card is a matter of choice ofcos everybody opinion can't be the same. It's matter of choice. As long as you know what you want and get yourself out of the credit them why would another person be taking panadol on someone's headache.

Now deetus is trying to scam me and deetus is not trying to scam me....I get thousands of scam email every week and I bet you when you see one you know u don't know a susayer to tell you it's a scam email. They are various ways of getting rid of this email...why not just block it and you never get an email from this person instead of trying to critize someone here. Projah you never visit the site why worrying for someone who said you should contact DHL ofcos if that person is trying to scam you he/she will not refer you to DHL he/she will rather give you a contact number or email.

That email does not look like a scam email please.

You get my point. *sigh*

^^^ This is still sh!t bro. Embark is an outsourcing agent for Morgan state uni (No dispute about that) and I still stand on this that The Rochelle Massey shouldn't be the one incharge of international i20, The person incharge is Kitson Walters (kitson.walters@morgan.edu).

OK let's assume Rochelle Massey is incharge and Rochelle Massey sent me an email through "noreply@embark.com" with her name ROCHELLE MASSEY but why was she referring me back to the school when I replied "Your Papa". If I'm meant to reply back to the school, it would still be Rochelle Maseey.. Why can't she answer me then.
I never viewed that school site before talkless of applying, July22nd, after that e-fight about nsurg, was the first time I checked that site, after getting numerous emails from Massey!.

I wouldn't wanna say "sh!t" again bro and the I-20 I got through Rochelle Massey must have defo been fake.

But to understand what a 'noreply' message means... U should check online or better still send a "your papa" message to 'noreply@ustraveldocs.com' and see it's reply. Then compare it with the one u got from 'noreply@embark.com'.

Peace bro and sorry for all the sh!ts.

Meritdee, are you trying to support deetus
What about the recharge card he collected with the email and he even confessed to scamming somone of recharge card. What about the stupid messages he has also been sending to me.

He stole my email the day I told Francis to send me a link. Since then he has been saying shitt.

Thank God he has stopped d message since yesterday . Next mins, he will start writing some pity pity quotes like a good person.

No one should put their email on here again.

Well, I will let this case rest but I know he will do it to another

Joenice, deetus, joebelly, nsurg ( those are all your moniker) . The next time I see your email again, you won't like yourself

Ma'am, I'm not supporting anyone. I responded to the post below because I got similar message. With my experience of having to use embark as a channel to send in my application to Morgan State University and with my little idea of how database works, I was able to decipher where the mail came from.

I receive smart phishing emails as well as dumb scam emails almost every week, its easy to spot em with a lil research. Just add their ID into your spam folder when you receive this kinda mails.

I only addressed the embark mail, I don't know about the others. I hope you understand.

I'm just tired of this sh!t. Why must Ojah be a victim of scammers,. He said it sometimes ago that I was scammed of recharge card (He was drunk tho), and I got numerous emails from Rochelle Ma-whatever from embark-morgan to pay for agent to dhl an i20 of a school which I never applied and everything happened just after the nsurg ish. I saw another mail of joedeetus yesterday,. Abeg help me beg the guy!

Meritdee. Did you also get this same email??

profojah:
Meritdee. Have you checked the link i posted and confirm if this is REAL embark that outsource for that school..ETSU uses goldlink and every official members of ETSU attaches with goldlink have ETSU-goldlink email. e.g hdgdgdgs@goldlink.etsu.edu. so don't tell me sh!t. Just check the site and get back to me

It is the real embark. I got loads of their mail in my box bro. Sorry for telling you "sh!t" tho. Peace

profojah:
Bro, Rochelle Massay is a financial director of the school, and there should be no reason why a financial director be contacting international student for i20, the job should be done by the graduate coordinator OR ISSO officer NOT the school financial director..Mind You, Every school members official email must end with school abbrv. e.g Rochelle Massey email when I checked is Rochelle.massey@Morgan.edu, OR jbradus@ubalt.edu, Djmakson@mtsu.edu etc NOT rochellemassey@embark.com.
You need to relax More!

Bro, Rochelle Massey is in charge of granting approval for the mailing out of I-20s. Financial documents for I-20 are sent directly to her.

The screenshot below was the mail I received through noreply@embark to remind me of the documents required for my I-20.

Check the name of the person who sent it and also the signature at the end of the mail. A Graduate Assistant sent it but not without the approval of Ms Rochelle Massey.

This is how this mail works... The embark as an outsourcing management service compiles and send Application docs to the school. Your documents are stored in a database and the email address used would also be added to their mailing list.

Now the outsourcing management service creates a platform where the school can log on to the embark database and just pass out information to their intending students.

Any school official with access to this database would log on to the embark database with his/her unique ID and pass to send out information. Embark server would then deliver the information to your mail box as a 'noreply' bot but would leave you the option of contacting the school directly which is the school website for graduate studies.

There you would find the name of the school official who generated the mail that you received and mail him/her directly.

Now for you to get this mail without applying to MSU would be an error in the database of embark which means you've prolly at one time signup/apply to a school (not MSU this time) through embark using this email address.

It's IT bro, its never reliable... there's always a loophole.

I didn't get this mail, but I think it's embark database that's malfunctioning. The address is genuine and it's not just Morgan State University that uses the platform for Admission Application process.

I got something similar on my alternate e-mail address, I just ignored it. They are not trying to scam or hack you, it's just a database error.

Embark is just like an online platform that operates as an outsourcing management service for compiling admission docs for schools. Third party service shii.

Rochelle Massey is real. She's a MSU official. So relax bro

Sorbital:
18th of August which year? If you are actually aiming this year, the closest available date for an interview as at now is 24th August... Unless there's some other way you wanna do it which I don't know

It's now 26th bro... lol. How far with your emergency ish?

LagosNIV:
Travelling to Benin and not getting a stamp is very different from getting a fake stamp. If you tell me you went to Benin and it doesn't appear on your passport, I have to take your word for it. Maybe I discount that information. If you have a fake stamp, I already know that you are trying to deceive.

People who think they know what is going on need to stop giving bad advice - be honest during your interview and things will go much smoother.

Thank you so much for clarifying this. Wow! God bless

Oga Slimmy05, I see you are watching. Thanks for everything o. God bless you plenty plenty

Mavni program, white or Akata wife, nigerian doctor or nurse, PHD ..............

The struggle is real my broda.. Lol

LagosNIV:
There is no definite timeline on getting through the hiring process for the MAVNI program. As I mentioned, it all depends on recruiting cycles. If they need more people they will hire faster - if they don't there will be delays. After you officially enlist in the military the process takes around 10 more weeks until you become a citizen.

Some other things to keep in mind - you are most likely on a 4-year term of enlistment. As others have mentioned, you may get deployed to a warzone as part of that obligation. I wouldn't let that discourage anyone. I went to war twice and came back fine, and I was a combat soldier on the front line as well. The benefits are that you will get expedited citizenship, training, and have steady employment for the duration of your enlistment. You may even enjoy it and decide to stay for a full career.

The first step is to talk to a recruiter - they will have the most up to date information about how quickly recruitment cycles are moving.

Woah! This is serious! War front kwa.... God didnt program me for this. Best thing is go there, get my degree and return to this developing land of opportunities to use my acquired skills make benjamins. I can't face ISIS abeg.. Lol.

This is just my opinion o... I've never been to other parts of the world, but this my father's farm is large and promising.

Sorbital, why not just go ahead and request for an extension on ur date of resumption from school. It'll still be a win-win situation for you even if u eventually get an earlier date.

worry357:
That's revenge for using PM and E-mail for private talk.
Rather than posting here for all to learn from.

Lol

fregkay:
I hail gurus in the house oo..I went for my interview on the 21st july but was delayed and school resumes on 13th of august.would have re-applied if there was available dates,now differed admission till spring.my question Is, what time is best to re-apply for interview?

Awaiting answers from you guys..God bless!

Since u have deferred ur admission till spring, it is best to go after 90days of your previous visa interview.

igbonerd:
Bro, you do not have to cancel and reschedule your interview, because you filled out a new DS-160. I also filled out a new DS-160, and my interview date was not affected. (I have had my interview.)

Just go to your account and try to update your profile with the new DS-160 confirmation number. It will likely generate an error message as it did, when I tried updating mine - something about an error loading a Visualforce page. Panic not.

Send an email to support@ustraveldocs.com stating your intention to change your DS-160 confirmation number on your account. The mail should contain the following:
Surname
Name
Date of birth
Passport number
Old DS-160 confirmation number

Attach to the mail, the confirmation page of the submitted new DS-160 and also the data page of your international passport. They should respond to you promptly.
Good luck.

Thanks bro

Sorbital:
When is your date

th August

BloodyMitch:
Okay what dates re okay?

Check very early in the morning.

Sorbital:
Just package well wetin you go tell that Chinese man carry you go Benin Republic

My bro, Na to just tell am the truth and leave everything in God's hands. Na NYSC trip carry me go

Sorbital:
Bro, just let me know in case you decide to cancel and reschedule... I have been so dying to get a date earlier than 18th August....that way, you know where your "lose" entered.... Your brother's pocket, huh?
Would be a win-win for all of us... I can pay back in another form

lol, Don't even bother

mbeenox:
Going to Benin doesn't help ur case in front of the VO, if u include just be ready to answer questions abt it.

Stewee:
Don't fret!
Just fill a new DS-160 form and update... It's better you just say you don't have travel history.
For oyibo people, it's not what you know but what you can prove...
Don't let this throw you off!

I can't update without canceling my scheduled appointment and I stand the risk of losing my date if I try that.

@mbeenox, I was just being honest while filling the form. I've read cases where people with visa to first world countries were denied.

DeeTus:
NYSC ID Card is not a passport. Do not give VO the opportunity to smell a rat on your visa application. You have only less than two minutes to convince him or her.

Thanks bro and BigFrancis21... I'll just do the needful and hope for the best.

bigfrancis21:
How then do you prove you actually went to Benin Republic? I know that Nigeria and Benin Republic are ECOWAS countries and one only needs a Nigerian passport to travel to any ECOWAS country from Nigeria, visa free. Except that would be your alibi. But also, your travel date to Benin Republic has to fall after the date you first obtained your passport because you need an international passport to travel to outside Nigeria, even to visa-free countries, right? Correct me if i'm wrong.

How did you go to Benin Republic?

It was more like a fun trip and I used my NYSC ID Card.

bigfrancis21:
The VO would definitely need to see evidence of your travel to Benin republic and they would need a visa on your passport to confirm that and since you said you don't have a visa, you are better off not mentioning Benin in your travel history at all. I smell possible denial because of this because Nigerians are known to claim travel history or fake visa stamps which the VOs have a way of detecting real from fake stamps.

Go ahead and fill out a new DS160, don't include a Benin Republic travel history whatsoever and submit. Then update the new DS160 number on your visa booking profile (you might have to cancel and reschedule to that, based on recent changes seemed to be made). No prior history is not that much of a reason to deny you your visa. Many people who have US visas today had never been outside Nigeria before till they got their US visa.

Jeeez! Benin does not require visa and I didn't have a passport when I went to Cotonou. WTF!!!

I've only been to Benin republic in my travel history and it was during my NYSC in 2012, but I do not have their stamp on my passport. Hope this won't be a red flag to the VO. I filled Benin as my travel history on my DS-160.

The trip was just for pleasure with my friends and we came back the third day.

Anyone with experience on this ish? @Bigfrancis21

signz:
See this Chief!!!

You still trading?

Yes bro.. on a low key

*Smiling* tnx dear, i will try it.

U welcome ma'am

SantaClause:
I follow the thread every 30mins and when I refresh my page what I see is I have sent you an email no reply, I have replied, send me an empty email, I just pm you please respond and many more so I was asking myself what are this people discussing that they don't want people to see or read?? I know this people they communicate with are all in the U.S. So definitely is about U.S so why talking in private. I can't recure who said it but someone was like please send me your email so we can discuss but the guru was like I don't discuss in private anything you want to know please post here for other to learn as well. That was a nice statement but now everybody wants to discuss in private.

Nice observation... But then, there are some Ish that can't be discussed in public or informations that can only be shared in private. For example @Bigfrancis21 assisted me in paying for my SEVIS and GRE test, Innovativeame helped with my VISA fee... These are transactions and informations that can only be shared privately. And prior to yesterday, I had already informed some selected members of the forum that I'd be sending a draft of my interview transcript to them for evaluation. So also the ones sending their 'Statement of goals' out for review can't be advised to release such here. #Plagiarism wise
My point is, not every information can be shared publicly. So the ones that send PMS prolly have their genuine reasons.

BloodyMitch:
Good Morning all, hope you all had a good night rest. Please i want to find out how can one access craigslist both on mobile and Pc as i was using Tor browser on PC n it was goin tru, den all of a sudden i got a page dt kept on saying invalid IP. Please which other browser can i use. Thank you awaiting all your responses.

I just love the idea that a lady knows about Tor.

I assume u are very smart, so no need to start any step from scratch.

Now goto Torrc in ur Tor installation package folder, open with notepad and just add (check below)

strictexitnodes 1
Exitnodes {US}

at the bottom of the notes.
Save and exit. Then relaunch For

Note: Check if the IP u are given isn't blacklisted.. If it it is, switch IP every time to get the one that isn't blacklisted. It will give you US IPs every time u switch and if you found the one u like, just copy and replace the 'US' in ur exit node with it.

I hope this helps.
