Hi, I received an email asking me to full out a form and scan and email it back. can't find any info on them and not sure I want them to have my handwritten personal info scanned and given to them. asked for more info from them, location, types, contract date etc and received a short email saying they have a pilot and engineering position, regards Soloman Ade, however the email comes from Samson Ade and multiple errors on the application form. suspect

beware

EIAI,

There are many unscrupulous characters out there who are very adept at forging signatures of innocent victims for their own personal monetary gain....
Once you can forge a signature, you can withdraw monies from accounts, sign contracts for your own personal gain etc

Exclamation Skyaero Limited Nigeria

Hello all's,

I had the same contacts, mail from Solomon Ade Ade then answer from Samson.
Then I had contact with a company Golink a Mr. Usman Kilo I should 400,-USD transfer for expenses.
I will not do, I think there's something suspicious.

UNBELIEVEABLE

How many more times are we going to read stories like this on PPRuNe? I would view any new/start up opportunities coming out of Africa as potential bank account emptiers.

You have been warned!

phone call from SkyAero

Just got a phone call from these guys.
They have sent me an application form etc, etc...
Of course I didn't give any financial details to them and they promised to contact me again via internet. Some 9000$ seem to be the Captain's pay on a rotational basis of 3 months on/1 month off ???

Suspicious to me !!??

Anyone that asks you too pay them for a job/Visa/airfare are crooks. No matter how desperate you are for a job don't send any money.

There was an ad for a company called Airlinkers around last year and some people lost up to 10K USD at a time. The office address given was a demolished apartment block in Mumbai I think. I called them for a copy of the "contract" and was told I couldn't see it until I had paid 10K USD by wire transfer.

Think people.
