COMMENT:
These CON people are everywhere! Goans and all job seekers need to be shrewd.
Parents need to guide and supervise their children.
Some three years back, my daughter had uploaded her CV on internet job sites.
She got offers from renowned establishment with fantastic salaries.
When she told me so, I tracked the mails and found out that they originated 
from Singapore. I also contacted the establishments on their contact us  mail 
ID, where I received their reply that it was a fake.
I sent a complaint to the Singapore cyber crime Dept. with all details.
They immediately responded advising me to make a police complaint in Goa and 
that the Goa police need to forward them a request to follow up the complaint.
But when I complained to the Goa police cyber crime branch, and forwarding the 
response from Singapore; there was no response at all from their end. The cyber 
crime police in Goa is just namesake!
I still have the correspondence with the Singapore cyber crime police as well 
as the complaint to Goa cyber crimes Dept.

[Goanet] Job Offer Hoax Alert - India/Qatar

2014-07-15 Thread Cecil Pinto
Please note that a non-existent company
QATAR FOUNDATION FOR CONSTRUCTION AND OIL SERVICES
is sending out Appointment Letters with fantastic offers to job seekers.

The letter is very authentic looking with very lucrative terms and has
authentic looking stamps of the Qatar Labour Department etc.

It is a well planned con job. First they browse career sites and contact
candidates and ask them for an updated bio-data.

They then send an Appointment Letter and ask the candidate to contact some
representative here in Delhi, India. This representative in turn eventually
asks for Visa fees. Once the Visa fees are paid the agent disappears.

A close relative of mine almost fell for the trap but fortunately I have
friends in Qatar who confirmed for me that the company did not exist and
that there are many such Job Offer cons going on.

Please inform prospective job seekers you know to be very wary of job
offers that sound too good to be true and to do their homework diligently.

Cheers!
