Total scam

i contacted the embassy and they laughed at the log etc.

SEEK pulled the advert saying it was frudulently advertised

They got some money from me just for the accomodation then they came back agian for more money for insurance thats wehn i told them no.

the apprtatment compant does not exist.

The only mention of the bridge was back in 2012 but nothing since, i have checked the Cameroon papers and nothing about a bridge.
