I was called for interview. Pse let me know whether these people are genuine? I only produced their invitation letter through e-mail.

Thank you for your advice. I will stay away.

Thanks in million.

Pls do not give or send any money to those people because they are frausters.
Keep your money and continue your search for job, good ones will surely comme soon

They are fake. Any employment agency that asks for money as "registration fee" is fake; they are hungry, jobless Nigerians who are looking for money. If you pay the money and go through the interview, they will not write you again, meaning you did not pass. If they care to write, they might write to tell you that you did not succeed in the interview, so that you will always apply whenever you see their advert.

Please, do not apply, because when you do, you will definately remember my advice.

Thank you all for the advice.  They want to break further my heart instead of breakthrough.  What an irony.

Hello , landers,
One has to be very careful with this kind of information. These people are realy fraudsters. My biological sister had fallen prey these people. They acted as if they have gotten job for her, she paid the fees requested, did their so call oral and written interview but since then no more.
We cant say because we are looking for jobs then we loose our senses and some other things. thanks
