Teacher - 2014-08-25

I found a job ad on e4s and applied for this job. It's from Mr Kim-Chong Hee, who pretends to working for Bugil Academy School and recruiting teachers. He has this email address: bugilacademyschool@gmail.com

He sent a questionnaire and I answered some interview questions because, as he said, doesn't have one there who speaks English and he was using google translator. After I sent him my answers, he said I was accepted and sent me an attachment to sign which was an invitation for a contract, telling me what the contract would cover, free accommodation, health insurance, etc and set a date of meeting at the school for documentation and orientation. He didn't ask for any money and I didn't pay for anything but I found it strange that I was given a salary of 4 000 USD monthly, which seems to me much higher than the average salary, according to quick google search I did, and I found it ever more strange that there was no skype interview. I called Bugil Academy School (http://www.bugilacademy.org/eng/about/contact.jsp) and they immediately told me it's a scam.

By the way, I also found this ad later on Dave's ESL http://www.eslcafe.com/jobs/korea/index.cgi?read=61006 and it makes me wonder whether it's a scam as well, considering that the email address of the ad (amalfi623@gmail.com) is not the email address of Bugil Academy School as posted on their site (glpbugil@gmail.com).
