Yes, indeed! In Nepal, there are agents luring unsuspecting newbies (that is: young, unemployed people) into jobs with unreliable and crappy employers in the Arab Gulf states. These agents lie about everything and get you jobs for 400 USD a month; the agents fee collected in advance is 4000 USD. They are also getting paid by crappy employers there. I have warned Nepalese people whenever I could. I helped a Nepalese friend out by paying for his airfare back to Nepal when he couldn't stand it anymore because of the heat (working on a construction site for a football stadion in the desert- what a shit job!)!!!!!!!

Anyway, many corporations are agencies, most of which are no better than agencies for EFL teaching in China to work for.
