Dear Mr STUPID MAN

We are please to bring to your notice that your qualification and experiences is found suitable for employment with Chevron Nigeria Limited (CNL).

On your satisfaction with the contract terms you are expected to sign it and send it back to us immediately via e-mail attachment. Also, you are to attach in the contract terms a copy of your most recent passport- photograph for us to forward to your employer Chevron Nigeria Limited (CNL) for the release of your employment letter.

However once we are through with the signing of the contract terms and employment letter, an immigration lawyer who will be contracted to assist and guide you on the immigration procedures.

His primary assignment is to make sure your workers / resident permit, cable visa and expatriate quota approval are granted without delay.

The services of the immigration lawyer has already been taken care of by your employer, in other words you are not suppose to pay him for his services.

Your consistency will be highly needed in order for you to meet up with the stipulated date of resumption.

You are to furnish the immigration lawyer with documents that will be required by the Nigerian Immigration Service in order for them to grant these approvals on time, as soon as your resident/workers permit, cable visa and expatriate quota approval is granted in Nigeria it will be faxed to the Nigerian high Commission in your location who will in turn invite you for an interview for a STR visa.

A copy of the approval from the Nigerian Immigration Service will also be faxed to your employer Chevron Nigeria Limited (CNL) in order for them to start making arrangements on how to pay you your first month entitlements that will cover your flight tickets and other miscellaneous expenses incurred in the course of your traveling.

The contract signing and immigration matters is suppose not to take more than two weeks, since we are working with a limited time.

Best regards
Mr. Maxwell Alford

I feel like an idiot! I believed until the last moment in the tale that I am interesting as an expert and it would be highly valued. But some sixth sense, advised me to check this information and the first thing I found is your publication

I think this is a scamming original. I have gone through the wordings and the presentation of the so called draft contract and I found it very usual and only changes in the name and amount of the salary. I have sent my details to many recruitment agencies and I expect some of them but this one is too good to be true.
This may serve as a warning to all applicants for a position anywhere in the world.

I totally agree this is a disgraceful scam, my long retired father in law, living in Venezuela and registered member of the oil industry consultants, has been approached by them with a job offer worded very much same to the one above. The 'draft contract' has no touch with reality, offers a $36.000/month and all the other malakie... that not even a lottery win will bring!

Please keep on reporting this scams so the wicked minds behind them can be deterred and eventually caught.
