Same story happened to me and my husband. But the guy called himself Hershay Mathews from Omni recruiters (which is a fake co.) And recommends MBA frm Asherton or Phoenix university. Randy wolf then calls frm the uni which is again fake one, and asked me to pay $500 enrollment fees. And they start to convince people to go for the MBA as they get amazing job opportunities with basic salaries ($6, 000) plus. In UAE. ThIs is all ###, please take care everyone these are fraudsters and scammers.

I got a similar call from a male person, "John Albert", claiming that he works for a recruitment agency called "Acapell Advisory" they got my resume from LinkedIn, he added that he got an opportunity in UAE that best fits my profile and told me about the amazing package (basic of $7800). But he claimed that the employer requires an MBA degree that I do not have, hence he recommended to have my experience assessed by one of the PLA universities such as McMillan, which I never heard about. What was suspicious that the person on the phone insisted to guide me on the phone through the website of the university (http://www.mcmillanuniversity.com/) and did not leave me before I was connected to someone on live chat, who I believe is the same person "John Albert" fooling me. After a short chat with a claimed female adviser she transferred me to another senior mail adviser who called himself "Jim Clark", after greetings he asked to call me on phone and surprisingly I received the call from the same number of the claimed recruitment agency.
After reviewing my full profile, he told me that I qualified for a 95% off scholar and I will just pay $500, which is the administrative fees. Again he was insisting that I go through the payment of $500 admin fee for the MBA and sent me on live chat a secure link, but the URL was different from the university (https://www.globaleducationexperts.com). By that stage I got rid of him as I claimed I need time to switch computer, however he tried to stay with me but I insisted that he call me back after 15mins.
Now the facts are:
- The recruitment agency guy calls himself "John Albert".
- The recruitment agency guy contacts you from the same phone number of the university adviser [protected]), however he tried first "+3433" but sound quality was bad.
- The claimed recruitment agency website is "http://acapelladvisory.com/".
- The claimed university website is "http://www.mcmillanuniversity.com/".
- The email address on the email sent from the recruitment agency is "careers@acapelladvisory.com" however sent via "directcontactpro.com" so obviously it is an alias email.
- The university adviser claimed name "Jim Clark".
- The email of the university adviser is "jclark@mcmillanuniversity.com"

Hopefully no one falls for such scam.

Brentt & Co and McMillan University are scam. Please see the link below :

Brentt & Co. and Mcmillan Univeristy are scams. Please see the link below :

http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-955458

i am just wondering is anybody from you actually took a degree from them ... and they loot money out of ya and never sending the documents

i was just called yesterday by Brentt & Co. and they recommended me to Mc Millan University. they told me i just need to pay USD $ 499 - 500. i have searched the web page of this university but i cant find any physical address for the school. i believe this is a scam since they insisted on payment. also they want payments by visa. the caller had an indian accent. please take care every one this is a scam, below the email from the company

Guys I have had the same experience today and I realized it was a scam because the secont idiot from the univeristy called from the same number that the recruiter called from. mcmillan univerity and the recruiter was Brent and Co

What i dont know is how they got my resume, I have applied to many jobs online and dont know which website it might be..

please share if you have any ideas.

thanks

Guys, the same thing happened to me today!
Clearly and Indian guy trying to hide his accent by over pronunciation!
classic! recruiter from Brent and co called me first and spoke for over an hour about this job offer which sounded genuine! these guys do their homework! I just dont understand how they found my resume because he had all my details.. this is scary!
then another guy calls me few hours later from a 'mcmillan university' which is nonesense. and he insisted that I use the online chat on their website, i was skeptical from the begining but thats when i was sure its a scam. They probably want to hack your system and get yet more information out of you.
And they are in such a rush to enroll you in their program for USD 899 ... another thing that gave it out was that the second guy called me from the same no as the recruiter!
PLEASE DONT FALL FOR THIS...

Thank you guys, for sharing your complaints here..
I had received the same call right now, one person from Neon adv. called me his Indian I'm sure about that, he talk with me about my experience and said his wondering why I don't have MBA, he encourage me to have it, he said he will recommend me to the said position if i get the MBA, he recommend the McMillan university and he said they will call me into 3 hours.
one person his name is Randy Wolf called me and talk around an hour with me about their program, he encourage me to MBA and asked me to give him my credit card information.
frankly I'm not giving my credit card number to anybody (My wife also LOOOL).. he gave me this contact name and number to send me to him in Saudi Arabia

all this fake and they will cheat you.. be ware.

thanks for who share this..

I got the same call from Brentt & Co which started out as a job opportunity with amazing salary and perks. The only hiccup was a Master's degree which was attainable with a full scholarship in 10 days. Only 500$. Would I be able to pay that amount certainly. At the end instead of head hunting for a job it sounded exactly like a scam sales call to make you part with your money. The timing and precision to detail in the call was amazing. "I need to check with the employer whether he would be interested in your profile without a Masters" after 30 mins a call back and I was unable to get in touch with the employer but there is a solution for you. The magic masters degree within 10 working days because of your amazing work experience.
Beware guys these guys are professionals...

I just kept the call with one of the Brennt and Co. employees.. after asking me about my whole profile.. and telling me that this job would be good for you, might involve traveling and if you are okay with it.
After all that he was like however the job you have applied for requires Masters Degree. Any reason why you have not done it and blah blah blah!
Then he suggested I joined Phoenix University, they will sponsor you, you do not need to pay anything. Think about it and tried to convince me a lot and in the end he was like you only have to play 499$ upfront.
What the hell.. I dont get it why dont the police catch these scammers and put an end to this! It is becoming a very common thing to put up fake jobs and get people's hopes up high!

Same happened here with me but with macmillan university the wail was like that...Head Scholarship Department,
Orlando University

Dear Sir,
Neon advertisers would like to recommend mohamed (see resume) for your 100% Scholarship Program for Working Adults. Mohamed has wide and relevant work experience, and can qualify for a number of great jobs if he has the required academic credentials.

Given his extensive work experience, we recommend that Orlando University grant mohamed Masters Degree with 100% scholarship. You may contact the candidate for evaluation through the following contact information but at the end macmillan university called me

I too had a call today from 'Brentt & Co' saying the same exact stories...But the University was McMillan University and they asked me to pay $500...luckily I googled the university and found it doesnt exist. Thanks to all hu posted here and saved lots of ppls money!

Thanx for sharing ur experiences. you saved me from a scam, and I would agree with Samkn. Josh from Edjoinres told me it McMillan University. I didn't find any uni with this name.

I received a call with same story with some small changes in the details ... it is McMillan University now and the fees are 999$ ... since when the universities are using marketing methods in pricing making it 499 instead of 500 or 999 instead of 1000 ! that's ridiculous !

I agree. however, the company that called me was Brentt & Co.
I received the call a day after my application. This search confirmed my doubts.
Thanks for the heads up guys!

add also i know from his english speaking that he is Indian or Pakistan ? as they have a special pronounce and when i asked him about his nationality he laid and he said that he is from Brazil ?

The same happened to me they said that they offered me the job with 4500 $$ salary per month along with some other incentives including pick and drop, black berry smart phone, laptop and medical insurance.
and he insist to take the master degree from orlando by paying 499$$ although i have contacted orlando via live chat and she said its normal cost for the master prog. is 12000$ and for Edjoiners is 499$ in few days ?how does it comes ?
and they said the fees is refundable and when i asked him gave me a proof of the person that you hired via your company he didn't how does it come the master degree in the orlando uni. with 60 credit hours with fees 12000 $ come into few days with fees 499$ ?
http://www.orlandouniversity.com/programs/degree/masters-degree.asp
HE TOLD ME YOU NEED TO GET MASTER TO GET HIRED AND HE OFFERED ME A JOBS AS SALES MANAGER AND ITS NOT RELEVANT TO MY EXPERIENCE I HAVE ABOUT 3 YEARS EXPERIENCE IN BANKING SERVICE AND I GET MANY COURSE IN THIS AREA ESPECIALLY CUSTOMER SERVICE AND HE SAID YOU NEED TO GET MBA TO BE QUALIFIED OMG
THEY ARE SCAM BE CAREFUL
I HAVE SEND THIS MAIL TODAY TO SOME ONE CALLED KEVIN.
I think the job offer is not related to my education however I have read many comments about your co.
read from here
ED Joiners — Scammers, Fraud
how its come that you said to many people that they had this MASTER education from top universities that they need master or phd in few weeks ?

thanks
if you can offer me the job without this degree its ok and I will pay commission for your hiring 1000$$ ok if you offered me the job with salary that you have told me about 4500$$
No orlando uni. ok

Orland in Pakistan ? lol .. Fake ..

Same story guys
The call is coming from PAKISTAN (Islamabad)
Please check the following link
http://www.caller-directory.us/phonenumber/0018888077811

I also received a similar call and that guy told me that I was short on qualifications. I got an email from Orlando University today. Now I know exactly what to do with that email. Mark as junk. :)

Orlando called me within minutes after talking to Edjoiners...
Edjoiners said 2000$ for the MBA and email from Orlando University says 9000$! MBA in 2-3 days! Impossible, isn't.
Orlando is pursuing me to take up this scholarship. Good, I checked on google before submitting or paying anything.

Received the same call yesterday which is a Saturday:

Kindly visit the local branch of Western Union and pay the processing fee of $499 to our ambassador and email me the scan copy of the payment receipt at your earliest:

Name: Mohammed Saadi Shabaan Abu Jahl

Country: Saudi Arabia

Thank you Google... :-)

I just got a phone call from EdJoiners too. At first I was surprised to get a phone call from the US at 10.30 GMT (5.30am EST !).
Then I realized they called me only 5 minutes after I applied for a job.
I don't know about night shifts for recruitment agencies, but this was impressive ! :-D
I got 2 emails from "Mark Taylor", but I got even more suspicious when I saw "mtaylor@edjoiners.com via mail5.us4.mandrillapp.com"

I still have to receive anything from the "University" though... But I guess this will finish in the recycle bin. :-)
Thanks everyone for the feedbacks. Many people (including myself) saved $500 only by reading this page. ;-)

thank you guys... thank you internet :D ... same story here ... they called me and they want 500$ looooooooooooooool

Same story here too...one guy from EDjoiner called and recommended Orlando and one Mr.Kelwin called for verification and one Ms.Diana gave all the (Fake) information about degree and a payment link.

i agree i received the same call first Mr Alex Mathew called from ed joiners and said i have to have a MBA degree and he will forward my CV to the universities, if i am lucky they then i will get a call in 48 hrs. Well i got a call in 3 hrs on the same day a person called from Orlando University and said i have to make a payment of 499$ Thanks a lot to this Google mother and your comments i have saved 499$

I agree the orlando and edjoiners both are fake thanks for the webiste and the google mother :)
which saved my money of $499... pls dont prank to these fake scams...
Be ware!

i agree with you all, i also received a call from edjoiners and then from Orlando university. Possibly a scam and they are asking me for $499.
...

I've had a call from EDjoiners telling me the same story, I did not have enough educational qualification for some of the jobs offered by their clients. I have a first class masters degree from the London School of Economics!

They confirmed that I needed a PhD because a Masters is just not enough! Wonder what the guys at LSE will have to say about their Masters Degree being no match to a PhD from Orlando University!

I have since received emails and calls from a guy called Jay Williams from Orlando University giving me details of the graduation pack and seeking my credit card details to process the admin fee of $499! Infact he's upped his offer to $2499 to get the degree attested and legalised by US Department of Distance Learning and also endorsed by the UAE embassy in the USA to prove this is authentic!

If you want to have some fun, log on to their website and start a chat with them... Guaranteed amusement! Just dont pay them anything!

This Ed Joiners and Orlando University 100% SCAM...I always thought christian religion is good no doubt but some arrogant christians are there especially in USA who will trap you and RIP OFF your 499$

Actually, I've received the same call from EDjoiners telling me that i needed an MBA to qualify for one of their vacancies and offered it to me for free from Orlando University. They're still calling me now to get me a job, I'm lost..what else do they need from me if they're a scam?!

God! Thank you so much! I just recieved a call from Oldando uni. I was wondering why in earth would they give me a PhD so easily! In my country we have a system where I can access all of the " real" universities. So I checked Orlando uni out and Nothing was there.

i agree with you all, i also received a call from edjoiners and then from orlando university. Possibly a scam and they are asking me for $499.

I actually applied for one of their jobs, which, thinking back, was quite general. So a guy called me and said that my educational level was not enough (I have two Masters degrees !) for their clients and therefore I MUST get a PhD degree from Orlando University. He added that, given my experience and educational background, I am eligible to get a PhD degree in a few weeks. (Oh you fools who spend years trying to get it. Look! I am getting it in a few weeks!) And it will cost a few hundreds of dollars. No big deal!
Edjoiners is a SCAM. Do not pay them any money! In-a-few-weeks-PhD or MBA is a nonsense.
I just wonder what would that guy have told me I had already got a PhD?
