Anyone who knows Briggs Consultant Ltd.
Hi All,
I just got a mail from Briggs Cosultant Ltd. that they are a hiring agent for EXXON/MOBIL. They wrote that my qualifications are OK for the job and they need my current papers. Did someone of you also got this mail ? Are these guys scammers or serious ? Thanks for your answers. Happy Landings Spencer17 |
Is this the same company??
ASHLEY BRIGGS CONSULTANTS LIMITED 44 ROWES MEWS ST PETER'S MARINA NEWCASTLE TYNE & WEAR NE6 1TX |
@ B Sousa No, it's a London UK based company.
I already had a look at "Companies House" where all Ltd are registered but could not find them. Happy Landings Spencer17 |
If they are a UK company, then they will be registered at Companies House. However, bear in mind that Companies House will only have the Registered Office which is not necessarily the main trading office so the one B Sousa found could be the same bunch. In addition, they may have a trading name but, if the company name you have has "ltd" after it, then that MUST be their full company name.
Site is currently closed but if you use the webcheck facility, this will list all companies with that or a similar name and it will say in which business sector they operate. You have to pay for any further information. Cheers Whirls |
Spencer17,
One dead give away I have noticed with those 419 emails is their reply email address (a yahoo or even hotmail address and I don't know many legit companies using those) and also sometimes their bad grammar. If they gave you a telephone number you could always give them a call and you should be quickly able to figure if they are legit. In my previous dealings with Exxon-Mobile it was with their aviation department and not some consultants but not sure they have changed their way of operating. Hope this helps and my grammar checks out ok. ;) Finalchecksplease |
I think finalcheckplease, just answered your question...........If they use Yahoo or Hotmail they may be no better than any Nigerian 419 company.

"EXXON MOBIL shall provide you access to some of the finest social and recreational facilities in Nigeria. "
Does that include the canteen at the QIT?:\ |
I got one of those too, the other day. Funny to read the "Con Tract". Hey it was a little better than Smith Botha from a few weeks back. The give away was that 4.5K for moving and the social clubs and the 18K a month pay all the while there is a shooting war going on in the Niger Delta. I am going to wait till the next offer for a job I didn't apply for, will provide hookers and all the booze I can drink ( which is not much ) Now to get that Mexican Vigara.

Dear Sir,
Be informed that your qualifications and experiences were found suitable for the requirements of Exxon Mobil Corporation to serve as Helicopter Pilot.... May be i could also join your club guys? See you at the bar... But sorry, i forgot to answer them... Also Yahoo Mail, but phone numbers in England, including mobile inpost. May be a big, world wide hiring action? :) :) :) |
God these type of scammers really P:mad: me off, they cant even put it into proper english

One of the emails they sent to me...
http://earlymusichicago.org/images/ThomasWikman.jpg Mr. Robert Seabrook Recruit Director of Briggs Consultant Limited Mobile: +447040116091 |
Interesting they are using the name Briggs in conjunction with an oil industry "contract."
Briggs Marine webpage are a large legitimate oil industry services company (actually all sorts of stuff now) I have worked with in the past. I wonder if they know someone is trying to scam relying in part on their name. |
I have also contact to this "guy"
i have received a job-offer (with same contract) for nigeria - i believe thats absolutely ****.
