Hi,I have been offered a job with a company ( OPL Storage Arcadia Ltd. ) this is a global company.The first I ever heard from them I received an email from there '' HR department '' with a job offer. I looked up the company and saw the job they had offered me was on there website so i replied asking for more details. I was sent an application form and details of the job description which I filled in and sent back.I have had no phone contact or face to face contact with these people but the last email I received today was to say I would have to do 10 days training starting ASAP which I would be paid £30 a day for and after completing would be guaranteed a place with the company. As part of the training process it involves transferring money between Western union and MoneyGram. I am just wondering if you think I should go ahead. Does this all seem legit? It says the manager will call me on the first day of training and I will meet on the 3rd and 10th day?I would be grateful if you could get back to me ASAP as they want me to start tomorrow.Thank you,Lisa
Already Tried: First port of call
In my opinion this is a scam, it is not likely the company would offer you a position when you have not had any direct conversations with the company. In addition legit companies do not ask for you to wire money. If I was provided with this same information I would not move forward. I looked at their website and I am very skeptical, the only contact info is a very generic address in NY, no phone numbers and no real company information.
Thank you I have just seen a post extremely similar to mine but a different company name and they were given the same answer
