This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

Another scam in the name of Total Oil and Gas Company.
My friend got contacted from a reputable vacancy ad website, offering him the position of Senior Project Manager.
The scam was essentially the same and rather simple - very official language, asking for copies of documents and also a face-to-face interview in their office in Watford, UK.
The scamming part comes from their insisting on using their partner travel agency, and to pay about 900 quid for the travel expenses (initially), to show the candidate's "commitment". We didn't fall for it, but I'm assuming that more expense were to come had we sent them the initial 900.
I've come across other similar scams, all of them using TOTAL Oil and Gas name, but with different variations and travel agencies:
Peace-alliance tours and travels — job offer scam

I shall paste the email and their contact details here to warn anyone who is tempted buy such a lavish job offer in UK.
Stay safe!

A fresh case from Bulgaria. The guy from the "travel agency" sounded like he was drunk, and then the fake domain address of Engr. Daniel McBrynt were enough for me to realize something is wrong. When they asked me to pay my travel expenses well in advance, I was absolutely sure that this is 100% fake.

Hi everybody. I can't steel believe my eyes. Gosh, what are they doing? They spend so lots of times to create such really serious business letters. I can't believe. In some documents they used just TOTAL Oil, in other document TOTAL Oil and Gas Company and I started to suspect. Goggling found suddenly your coments. You can't imagine how far I am grateful to all of you. Great thanks... I am publishing the letter sending to my mail too in any case. They just changed the travel agency, now Premier travels and tour. (and there is no information about such travel agency on the internet, even the website is not working)

I recieve the same message from same person the Seyhan posted the same letter with same text. They are very smart, but if you check the maps with their adress there is no bulding with Total sign on it. Easy bussiness type three pages and wait for money transfer, I am sure that they recieve money from some people who didn`t pay attention to the adress in letters. Agreed with that LinkedIn must pay more attantion on security.

I`ve got the same message today (I`m from Russia, Moscow).
The same “Invitation for Interview” from hrdept@carriers-totaluk.com in the name of Total Oil and Gas UK. I totally agree that it could be called a huge mistake or maybe even a criminal complicity by LinkedIn that they let some f…ing gang cheat people from around the world ((

I got the same message in France.
They succeeded to post this announce in the name of Total in LinkedIn. This is a huge mistake by LinkedIn which let some unofficial announcer posting those fraudulent job offers.
I was doubting since the beginning, because working as a communicant, i saw some "graphic" problems (the logo is flattened, the colors of titles are different from one doc to the other, typographic issues and some orthographic/grammar mistakes).

Look at those details to be sure.

Even though, i am a senior professional project manager, I can frankly say that job offer was impressive. This Scam was generated with perfect endeavour.Also, it has been produced professinally by experts who work recruitment agency or recruitment campaign. Thx Enic that's why revealing of that scam.

" Answers will show the reality ;)
