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 or for a deposit for any reason! Read: www.scam-job-emails.tk Scammers will ask you to send money to a fake embassy official, travel agency or lawyer who is a really a scammer using a free email address!! 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!

The numbers beginning +44-70 look like they are in the United Kingdom, but they are actually in Mozambique. Please post the complete headers of the email you received from uk-addaxpetroleum.com.

There is no such thing as an interview consisting of written questions to be answered at leisure. An interview is always real-time. If it isn't real-time, it isn't an interview.

Attention ,

We have received your CV and application in response to our ongoing recruitment notice/ credible referral.

Presently, we have a mandate to commence expansion on our numerous projects.

Based on the above, came the need to hire more experienced and suitably qualified personnel to join in the workforce by contributing their quota via their skills/experiences.

Hence, we sought the services of notable recruitment consultants (Prime Integrated Recruitment Solutions Ltd & Oil Careers (UK) Ltd) in the oil and gas sector and the related disciplines to short-list names of candidates with relevant qualifications and experience and you were chosen as one of those whose qualification fell within our needed criteria for job offer.


It is important to make it clear to you that we have resolved to hire only candidates who are:

1) Not presently engaged or are willing to disengage and work with us.

2) Ready to work in UK.

3) Ready to resume work in UK not later than 5 weeks from this date.

If the above terms are acceptable by you, then fill the attached assessment/placement form and submit to us within 3 working days for prompt evaluation and subsequent placement by our team of evaluators.
