Answer 1

Fake

1) You don't get jobs you haven't applied for
2) You don't get jobs you haven't been interviewed for

Answer 2

Have you ever sent your details to a company at this address? Companies don't just sent you letters saying you have got a job out of the blue. Have you been for a interview?

The wording is a bit wierd for a job offer letter. If they were offering you a job they would have either given you a start date or asked you to contact them.

The letter also appears to have been written by somebody who's first language is not English and who appears not to have bothered learning the language very well.

The statement "Answers to the official Interview" is not sense. This should read "answers given during your interview" or similar.

Any company writing from a UK office would use the term CV and not Resume.

Also, there is no such road as JohnKenedy Avenue in London.

A company trading from a London address should have a company registration number. Pettit Oil Company does not exist as a company in the UK. In fact, Pettit Oil are based in Washington and do not have any offices outside of the USA.

Answer 3

Not sure..Did you make a job application to them? Also the address details look very strange and suspect... Do not have plots as such. The spelling is wrong. And no London district or post code is quoted, which any office in london would use... I think most definitely this is fake..
