Hi everyone, my husband received the same letter today, and we were so enthusiastic since this morning as even the probability to be part of such a giant as Total Oil was such an enormous excitement. Me and my husband searched the whole day for any evidence that it was a serious offer and they claimed 1.195, 54 GBP from him as deposit! Finally I chanced to this site. Of course there is some dissappointment but the relief was much greater since we hardly managed to snatch up the money. Thank you thousand times for publishing this! the sender e-mail address was hrdept@carrieer-total.com. They found my husband via the website "linkedin.com". We are so thankful and hope that these fraudulent guys are catched and imprisoned as soon as possible, because they play with people's hope, feelings and future!

Hi everyone! My husband received exactly the same letter this morning and we got so excited and enthusiastic, since even the probability to be part of such a giant as Total was such a tremendous feeling... so we both rolled our sleeves up and did our best to formulate proper e-mails in decent language :) they claimed 1.195, 54 GBP from my husband and in the evening we hardly snatched the money up, that we were about to send it through early tomorrow. Of course I had my sixth sense as a loving spouse and it made me suspicious. I made some researches and chanced to this site! Of course the disappointment was deep but the luck and relief was much deeper since we presently need every penny for our living! WE ARE GRATEFUL to this board and to all of you for this indirect warning. I hope that these fraudulent guys are caught and imprisoned asap. They don't only scam on money, but also on feelings, on hope and on the future of credulous people who want nothing else than to work and earn their living on a reputable way :( the sender e-mail was: hrdept@carrieer-total.com.
Thank you thousand times!

Hi!
Could somebody give the tips how to punish this guys?
They have been still working because really nobody hasn't made the statement to the police or am I wrong? One of among my friends was cheated by them recently. And they are continuing to reply from their e-mail "info.travels@emperotravels.com" to him, I guess they have been using it for another criminal acts. From another side they offer to make a deposit through western union and in order to get this money they have to show the passport. Have you any visions on it?

Rourh but fresh - generated in 2013.

Write on this board all fake companies, managers, phone numbers, sites etc.

Let the cheaters to start perspire for creating sites and opening of the company.

SK

Hi everyone in the community invited to London for face to face interview!
I am one of you.
I replied to Total's ad. at Linkedin site.
Yesterday I got three letters from Total.
First one was invitation, asking me to come to interview to London on 12 July 2013.
Second - instruction to contact Fast Imperial Travels Consultancy and Tours, United Kingdom,

Cranbrook, Kent, TN17 2LS

for visa, tickets, hotel and other arrangements.
Third one - job description.

I become enthusiastic in the beginning, but then some doubts came to my mind -
1. How is it possible that such a big company sends job proposals to the people just upon getting CV by e-mail?
2. How is it possible that Total proposes me to be a project manager? I am one of thousands professionals over the globe. Means that they send hundreds job proposals.
3. The travel agency's site is quite rough done, some links do not work, etc. How is it possible that Total will work with such consultants for travel arrangements.
4. Job description is too "sweet". Working hours 9.00-16.00, medical insurance, welcome party upon arrival, etc.
After those doubts I googled internet and found this board.
Probably I make biggest mistake in my life, but will not accept that offer.
Please think twice prior to sending any valuables to potential employers before being employed.

Thank you people so much for this information!
My husband recieved this email today and thanks God I checked the name of sender!
Hope these guys got caught!

Best Regards,
Managing Director
Mr. Gerard Lamarche (Member, Board of Directors),
TOTAL OIL, UK.

After contacting the travel consultant, I was told to transfer an amount of 1110.80 GBP. to a Natasha Anderson which I did, because the letters seemed genuine and the the person who sent it from Total was indeed the managing director at TOTAL (I had checked ) so I didn't suspect a bit.

But then Western Union called me after I made the transfer and told me that they will stop the transfer transaction because it seemed like fraudulent receiver. they said they have had many complaints from customers transferring to the UK for similar reasons and if the transfer goes through and the receiving party receives the money, it will be very difficult to get it back.

I think that the authorities should be notified in order that they catch such criminals before they do more harm to people. I mean if a person will go to Western Union to receive the money in London, they should have an ID. It is not hard to catch the criminals from tracking their IP addresses .
I am glad that I discovered their scam and hope more people will be more aware ..
