This is obviously a scam...

Ask yourself this question - Why would a hotel in the US go through the trouble of 'importing' a low level staff when the country is awash with migrants who have the skills to do this job? undecided

SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM���...... No courier company accepts payment on delivery. If they were actually using that courier company, they would have been made to pay before the mail leaves USA. That their email address can be easily created on webmail. The website sef no go pass 20k to create. These ones na Yahoo boys wey mean business.

It is a scam! The reasons are these:


1. That indicates bulk mail. When you are offered a job your employer will address you personally e.g. Dear Sango,

2. - This is funny but ridiculous. There is a suggestion that the US has an embassy in the US. The use of the word "the" indicates a specific diplomat however no name was mentioned.

3. - This is a Nigerian English. Where is here? If you have an idea how different nationalities write. This line is clearly written by a Nigerian.

4.There is an indication that your nephew got his visa without applying for one. That borders around insanity. Employers can sponsor your visa application they cannot post your visa. Did your nephew apply for US visa, work permit and employer authorization card? I guess the answer is NO and if he did he would have applied for visa at the US embassy in Nigeria not the US embassy in the US (a ridiculous concept to begin with)

5.
The mysterious diplomat has now taken up the postman position grin. The emphasis is on the cargo delivery which is written in capital letter. This should activate an alarm bell in your head. This is scam. Requesting a payment from an employee to complete employment contract is a confirmation of the fraud. I am sure this so called company paid more than $250 to process the work permit.

Finally the use of language is similar to other internet scams.
YOU said It all. It is a scam.

It is that your $250 that they need, paybit and you will not here anything again. Be wise. You can also check with the embassy though.

Why does everyone think its a scam? Agreed it has the trappings of a scam but the fellow applied for the job. S/he should contact the company through the official email he used in the application.
For fvcks sake, this is a low end hotelier job, not one of the "too-good-to-be-true kinda job.
I have a gf who got a job in the US for which she applied from Nigeria. Interview was on skype , now babe is flexing life in the US

They asked her to pay money?
They used unofficial English in the correspondences?
What work permit class did they use and how long did it take?

You guys should stop these dangerous oversimplification of things. The US is awash with labour for low paying jobs.

Your gf must be highly skilled in something to have gotten the job and I am sure she did not receive this kind of low - quality letter.

They won't force the money out. I would advice him to follow up, if he thinks the application is genuine. But don't pay any money if you can't get your hands on any of those things mentioned. I mean see and feel the visa, emploment whatever, and the rest. Don't release any kobo, till you are convinced. A scam is successful only when your money is lost.

The bad English was the first red flag, then I got to part where applicant was asked to pay $250 dollars to receive his visa and work permit, that pretty much gave them away. They know how desperate Nigerians are to flee their country and they won't mind parting with cash to achieve that dream.

Please and please tell him not to go over there oo. The DIPLOMATS are nothing to joke with. Once he starts working for them, he will be trapped and start doing illegal businesses for them.

Pure scam! There is nothing like spring hill hotel in Maryland. Just tell your nephew not to fall victim of this scam
Come to think of it, which job offer was given to your nephew? Abi Na house keeping job ni.!! Hotel is mostly controlled by the Indians and they will prefer their person to any others.
