Regarding my job oppertunity from Radisson Hotel and Resorts Benin SouthAfrica.I got a Appointment letter?

Question

In that they told me to download and sign and send it to benin immigration services for visa and workspermit prossesing.I have done the same thing .Benin immigration services send the visa form and re-emburencement form and told me to send the forms after signature and send $1350 threw western union.These are the govt visa processing charges.So i have informed to radisson hotel and resorts.They told me that this is the govt processor that every candidate entering to benin has to do so you do what benin immigration services told.But how i can belive that after sending the money i will get responce are not.So i ask Radisson hotel and resorts that you arrange my visa and workspermit,what ever expences will be deducted from my salary.But they send the reply that they cannot take risk that after spending money if the candidate not willing to join.Same way i am also thinkingthat after sending money if i am not getting reply to whome i should ask.So tell me weather i have done right or wrong.

Answer 1

Hello dont putyourself in trouble by sending them money its totally fraud. Radissons is a very reputed company they will not hire peoplw without personal Iterview. So Just think twice before sending money

Thanks

Answer 2

this sounds like a scam. No company, business asks money for processing visas. If they do, thats the first i have heard about it. Contact the Hotel, they should be the ones to advise. If you can't get any contact with the England Border agency then perhaps you need to look elsewhere for employment. there are Radisson Hotels all over, and many in London, but cannot find a listing for one in Cricklewood. Where did you get the information from initially to either get employment or visa. And where do you live?

Answer 3

Contact the South African embassy and ask whether they are aware of this practice by the Radisson. I think they will advise you to drop this immediately and send no money as, on the face of it, it appears to be a scam. If it is, you will give them the opportunity to investigate further and take any necessary action.

Answer 4

this is the second question I've seen regarding something like this. I'd be very careful if I were you, it could be a scam, check these sites first.

check the Benin white pages to see if the phone number you have matches the one for the Radisson there.

Answer 5

It is a scam. Ignore it. Don't send them any reply. Take care, don't lose your money

Answer 6

Err, another scam... a job scam, what you described is exactly what is mentioned on http://www.oil-offshore-marine.com/bewarejobscams.php

So I suggest you stay out of this unless you want to lose your money.

Answer 7

Sounds like a classic Nigerian con to me
