TomPPL Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 Why would they want your passport number before your resume? I'd recommend you do not do it. I've worked in Nigeria in the past (non heli job, it was abseiling off oil rigs!), some companies out there are good to work with, however, there are places out there where you are at a fairly high degree of personal risk. Depends really how desperate you are for the money - personally, I wouldn't go back there ever again. Benin and Gabon are way better to work out of, much more civilised.

PhotoFlyer Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 (edited) Ask for an explanation of why they want it, and then tell them no and see what happens. Whats the worst that can happen? Edited November 18, 2009 by PhotoFlyer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkidKid Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Elite has been used in various forms and forums to scam people out of their Identity and money. Elite is a real company, and they disavow on their website, any knowledge of the perps who do this. DO NOT REPLY TO THE AD. Lyn, you would do well to remove the ad. See the link to Elite and their comments about the scam. http://elitepetrochemical-ltd.com/ScamAlert.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
