You need to see this.

A school in Paris, France offered me a position it was all done so well that I just couldn't sense anything.

Please have a look at these websites.

1) http://www.eabjeanninemanuel.org/
2) http://www.eabjm.org/

Can you at all tell which one is true? They replicated the entire website.

They even asked me to do a pre-interview writing task. I wrote a 5 page document and sent them. A woman called Shirley Burchill replied the very next day and said, the management is so happy with my answers and they do not see the need of interviewing me. And I must transfer Euros 900 via western union to someone in Spain. When I transfer that I must say that I am sending the money to a relative.

Can you believe she wrote all that and expected me to buy that?

I never replied. Instead, I went online and looked for the original school and contacted them to check the authenticity. The HR department of the school told me all about the scam.

BTW the second one is the original website of the school.

Be safe, be aware and feel free to write to me to share anything you have faced :-)
