poseidon expeditions cruises
its a real company called this but they appropriate the logo and ask for payment to do training after giving you a job,
I found it on a free ads web site called Gumtree in australia. and it sounded fishy so I researched the company name and contact details which were only half correct. A further email to the cruise ship contact confirmed its a scam.

Could you please post the emails you received from this fake company? They will often reuse the email scripts after they change fake names, so it will help others to identify future scams. Also, if they have a fake website supporting their scam please post that information so we can try to have it taken down.

I did see that your post is duplicated, so I will delete the other post in order to keep all responses and discussions in one thread.

Travel agents do not arrange such things. Any time you are told to apply to a specific travel agency for a visa or work permit, it is a scam; the travel agent is a character played by the scammer.

bellair.net is not a travel agency. It is an email domain run by GMX.

Welcome to Scamwarners,

Yes, it is a scam. The thief is trying to steal your money.

Jobs will require a face to face meeting.

The only way to get a Visa is to visit the visiting Countries Embassy in your country.

A travel agent nor any one else can do this for you.

Please contacta moferatorstor if you have a question or information about this post.

galaxyhit.com is not a travel agency. Its mail server is gmx.com, like lots of free email domains. The website redirects to draze.com. Whatever draze.com is, it isn't a travel agency.

What email address did the fake job offer come from? Does it have any website?
