I guess you have heard of fraudsters n more fraudsters, etc..... My son, Marshall received an attractive online job offer in Canada from Brad and Harley Recruitment Services (http://www.bradandharley.com), Vancouver, Canada for the post of assistant admin in a company whose name has not been mentioned @ $45,000 p.a.. Initially, B&H sent M an intimation informing him that they have acquired his profile thru TIMESJOBS.COM, where he had registered. After formally registering with B&H (no fee demanded), M gave some more info which they desired.
Thereafter, they asked for verification of documents which need to be authenticated or rather validated via another domain site ( www.quickValidate.com,) which apparently belongs to B&H. Here, for validation they demanded GBP15 for each document/certificate and my social avataar came to the fore as to their demand of GBP (Pounds Sterling) while the job is offered at Canada. Moreover, the certificates are normally validated or rather verified by the Consulates of the respective countries. Vancouver (the place of the recruiting agency) I am told, is the home town of many of the refugees from Punjab when the Khalistan issue arose. On contacting my neighbour who is in Canada working for a Bank in Risk Management section, he informed me after making discreet enquiries, that B&H are fraudsters and testimonies are written about them on http://www.fraudwatchers.org/forums/showthread.php?t=16163, which is self-explanatory. B&H also claims to be a premium agency for the past 3 years and that they have served 500,000 employees! Too good to be true! Apparently, B&H has been registered in end May 2008 & that too for a year. More info on the fraudwatchers website mentioned above. Thought of sharing the above scenario with you before it becomes embarrassing to many n sundry who may fall victim(s) to this scam. Hv a nice day.
