Hi mga sissies here! just want to share the experience of my brother in law, he applied for a job almost 2 months ago online as a office personnel (he has a bachelor degree I.T) ,he found this certain website where he got interested in to apply,and then, just recently this company has been contacting my BIL through email,the company pala is from UK London,the company said that my BIL has been chosen by their company to work and they grant him a working permit and a sponsorship grant,they even send the certifications and other documents,and they told my BIL that they will shoulder all the expenses from visa processing fee and plane ticket,they explained the whole details to my BIL,salary,working hours,company requirements etc...and they asked my BIL to send a scan copy of his passport and other documents so they will start to process his papers in UK embassy in london,it's all in the email,since my BIL is an I.T he's knowledgeable about computer thing,and he do made a research of everything about the company details,address,the person who contacted my BIL etc..just to make sure that it's for real,he even called the contact no. of the said employer just to check if that no. is existing and everything's looks good naman,the company is a well known company in london and every important information that the said employer gave to my BIL is all existing naman,he even seek for our opinion especially to my husband who's an Mechanical Engineer if it's all real,and my husband said looks everything's ok naman daw after he did some research as well,so everything is Believable and the exchanging  emails between my BIL and so called employer is smooth naman,after my BIL submitted all the scans documents they needed,they sent him back an email and they said that he need's to pay this entrance processing fee which i believe Visa processing fee to this UK embassy board something i forgot the whole name of the place,here's the time that curiosity,worries,doubt,everything arouse,it's indicate in the letter that he has to pay the entrance processing fee (300 euro) to this person's name,they said she's the cashier,and send it through western union within 48 hours so they can start to process the visa or documents,my BIL called me right away and ask us about this,he ask me how and where did i pay my visa before,i said i pay the fee directly to the u.s embassy through BPI Bank i think,forgot na,he told me that he has a doubt now because this company/employer ask him to pay the fee through western and within 48 hours,even my husband already doubt after he read the email and telling them that he has to pay it in western,so hubby and BIL,started to make a research about every websites/information that the so called employer emailed to my BIL,and they even call those contact no.indicated to those emails,just to make sure that the money will goes to the embassy,i told my BIL try to search the other company sites and try to call those no. that he can found,since the company is a well known and big company in london for sure it has a sites,because the no. he's been using to contact the employer is the one that they indicate on those emails,so my BIL started to call the other no.s he found directly to those company sites and unfortunately he found out that someone has been trying to SCAM on him and they been using that company name and profile in able to fool those workers trying to apply for a job,the company HR said to my BIL,that they didn't hire my BIL to work for them,they didn't send any emails too under my BIL's email,they ask him where did he get the advertisement for job openings in their company and my BIL told them that he found this job site and he applied for it,the HR said they don't post any careers/job hiring in other websites,it can only be found on their company sites,and the name of the guy they put in the email is not the company's general manager it's the owner of the company,so they've been using this company's name to fool and SCAM the people,my BIL told the HR in the company that their company's name been dragging and using to SCAM people,they ask my BIL to forward those emails that he receives from this fake and Scammers, it's good that my BIL is smart enough to not send the money right away and do research first,kaya mga sis pls.Beware sa pag apply especially online,be doubt if they ask you to send certain amount of money remittances lalo na western,kasi yan daw yung ginagamit ng mga scammers dahil it's worldwide,pls.be smart,don't let anyone fool you guys and pls.do a lot of research first,

Buti nalang at di nya na tuloy. Hopefully the scan personal infos he gave to them won't be use for identity fruad. Ang dami pa naman ganyan ngayon...

naku sana naman hindi mangyari yun sis,naiisip lang namin paano kaya kung yung victim nila is wala masyado alam sa mga ganyan,lalo na hindi masyado familiar sa computer or different sites,eh di malamang na scam na sila,kawawa naman,sana ma hacked (tama ba spelling?) yung email na ginagamit nila to communicate people,para ma lost lahat information nila :(

^Sana nga hindi sis, kasi if ever they did and use your BIL's info for illegal means baka ma wanted yung name nya. And when he go out to other countries or kung kumuha lang cya ng NBI nya may hit yung name nya.

Sana nga sis but if mahack yung email nila gamit to scam, gagawa din yung ng ibang account para maka scam ulit. Kailangan makulong sila, yan ang dapat sa kanila. Mga scammer na yan! >:(
