Yes, it is a scam. The scammer will have you pay fees to obtain a Visa. Then he will make up other fees to be paid.

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

Big red flag is their Website is 9 days olds with a year registration.

I have doubts about the offer because its to high and their site is not active or cant be open.

I'm about to send my "conforme" to accept the offer when im searching on how to process a work permit visa it appears on google this site scamwarners.com.

Thanks a lot Bryon.

Do not send them anything. Just ignore any further contact.

Yes, it looks like their fake site has already been killed.

A UAE travel agent website registered to an individual in Nigeria.

The letter was written by a West African. I can tell by the writing style.

Any time you are told by an employer that you have to talk with a travel agent, specified by the employer, to get a work permit, it is a scam. To get a work permit or visa, you contact the embassy or consulate of the country you're going to (in this case the UAE) in the country where you are.

There are also scams in which the scammer impersonates the embassy or consulate.

Please read carefully because this applies to every job offer you receive! 99% of email job offers are scams! No real company hires you without an in person, face to face interview. An email, online or telephone interview is always a scam! No real company ever charges any money for a job even for a visa or work permit! If they want you to pay and say they will refund the costs, you will just send money to a fake embassy official, travel agency or lawyer who is a really a scammer! Read: www.scam-job-emails.tk No real company, government or visa agent ever uses a free or public email address (yahoo.com gmail.com hotmail.com, aol.com, etc.) Email addresses like diplomats.com, counsellor.com, consultant.com, lawyer.com etc. are also free email addresses. Read: www.scam-email-addresses.tk No real visa agent ever requests money via wire to a bank account or by Western Union or MoneyGram. Read: www.never-wire-money-to-strangers.tk No real company uses a telephone number that begins with +44 70, +44 871, +44 870, +44 844, or +44 845. Those are forwarding numbers which are not in the UK. Read: www.scam-telephone-numbers.tk If the company does not have a website or the website does not work, it is a scam! Do not assume a website is legit! Read www.scamwebsites.tk There are no exceptions! Don't let a scammers convince you otherwise! A scammer is only as smart as his victim is naive! If something sounds too good to be true, it is a scam! Publicity defeats scammers. Post the scam emails you receive and warn your friends! Always "Google" all telephone numbers, email addresses and websites in any job offer to see if it has already been posted as a scam!
