Don't respond or you would join their mailing list.

When a scammer is done with a format, they sell the idea to new wannabe scammers. So your email address would be circulated for the nextvfew years (if you reply). They would be using your email to train new commers.

They why do they send out those invites for interview?
A close check will show that it isn't the company itself that's sending those vacancies but people that have been scammed and want to get back their funds

The manner at which some of you think is irritating. You aren't sure who I am and yet you have started calling me "unfortunate". In what manner did my reply to him suggest I encouraged the "fraudster" ? .
If you care to know, I have had similar experience and I gave some replies which till today I feel good talking about it to people, I even recorded the convo as a receipt and i was feeling smart. That is exactly what I meant by " the feeling".

The reply isn't for you, but for the OP, he understands.

Now, please, I beg of you to tone down on your aggression. Don't be quick to call one names please. Words are words , either spoken or written.

I love your response OP

E dey Sweet me for body

I fell into one in 2019 when I was hustling for job. I even went to Lagos twice for it (from osun and Ibadan). I rained them insults while leaving the second time when I got to know they only wanted me to be a marketer.
The only consolation that day was that my gf followed me back to Ibadan when I was leaving. Else ehn, na to buy plenty handkerchief dey wipe face while going back to Ibadan oo
You were carried away at the chance of seeing your gf that u didn't remember to do proper homework. Na so love dey first do

These guys go as far as creating fake job adverts on LinkedIn. And LinkedIn too doesn't verify, they accept and post it and mislead so many Nigerians. They always have the same address for different companies. Me I just delete once I see it. They are so desperate to recruit people to do Waka waka marketing

I received the same message not long a go from th dame ODG nonsense. If I had fallen for it, the loss in terms of time and resources waste would have been unquantifiable.

Those guys, particularly the ones in something something Oguji Road, are restive in their deceptive ploys.
