Thank you for this forum! I also got the same email! I had to contact Martin Walker from AIR EXPRESS TRAVELS AND TOURS! He had kind of a French accent, so I assume he is from Nigeria or other part of French-speaking Africa! He also mentioned sending money via Western Union for faster service! The receipient details are:

Receiver Name: Williams Moore,
Address: Unit 3, 61, Princelet St, London, E1 5LP

Just got the same invitation with the same names and attachments, but it all looked quite weird, so i decided to google. Thanks for your posts guys!

Just yesterday I have received this kind of invitation in the name of Total Oil and Gas, UK. Their so-called travelling consultat Airfex required over 1000€ at the first step. Thank you for submiting such a warning information.

Received the same invitation!
Thanks a lot for all of you for sending such warning info!

Hello All,

it is a total scam. first i thought it was OK, but when i received the above money transfer request, i have been suspicious as, if it is for hotel, and travel epenses, this you can manage by your own, also visa issuance over seas requires your presence without any other party's help. i did google the travel agency name, and i found you, and all this content. thank you all. i travel alot, so i know how to make all required travel arrangements. those naive scammers, should be penalized for this illegal acts.

Guys, thank you for your notifications.
Today morning I have received the same from recruitment@carrieer-total.com with a couple of "official" attachments which look very attractive:

Hi Everyone,

I am from Turkey and they did me the same. Our guys are again Stacy Lloyd from TOTAL and Mr. Andrew Martinez from Fast Emperor Travels Consultant.

I was first suspected when they asked for prepayment. Anyway I wrote them and said it is very hard for me to issue a VISA in such short time. Their answer was interesting "we will take care of it, don't worry!".

Still I continued, applied for a new passport. Today I had my passport and checked their mails. I was really very uncomfortable with the process. I googled Emperor Travels Consultant. Nothing!

After a deeper search I am here now! Thanks a lot my friends. I will inform Total Turkey about the situation. Total somehow should take care of it.

Anyway, it is unhappy to think how much they have earned from this business.

H.

Hi, I am from Russia
got same mail from Total today signed by Dr. Philippe Webb PhD.
I thought - how such a big company invites people from other countries for interview to London based just on a CV.
Means - they have so many projects which they are ready to give to recently hired people.
And proposing such a "sweet" job as a project manager. Not requesting any other confirmations of projects completed etc.
Their travel consultant's web site www.fasttravelconsultant.com also look quite suspicious - rather simple web design.
So I think - better not to go to farther contacts with them

Hi today I got the same letter yesterday,

I saved 1500 dollars in the last moment, thanks to this page...
I sent a threatining message to them, I cannot stand to these kind of people, this is incredible, playing with the dream"s of the innocent people...

Mine was also signed by Philippe Webb PhD.

Got the same email from a Philippe Webb head of HR. Someone should notify Total that they should take legal actions against the fraudulent individuals who steal money on thd back of their reputation. Poor English, lots of spelling mistakes, discrepancies in the proposal text and general weirdness in the fact someone would offer you a lucrative job simply based on a cv ticked me off, but i see a lot of unsuspecting applicants fell for it.

Also, i applied for a job in Kazakhstan, why the hell would it say location UK and Turkey in the TOR? Sloppy job all together.

Got the very same email. Guys please be careful!

Hi. I'm from Azerbaijan. I got the same.
First I didn't believe, but later I checked online to get acquianted about the company. For some time I've been sending my cv's to different companies, so I wasn't quiet sure if I've sent them or not. I replied them, and in responce I got the very same email that most of you wrote above. to deposite some amount of money. around 900 pounds. That was the moment I understanded it was a scam. So i googled about this emails and scams and got here.
I'm glad I didn't make a mistake.

The scam goes on. Please, beware of Linkedin and Total! What makes the situation worse is Total's inactivity and negligence to such fraud actions on its behalf

The scam goes on. Please, beware of Linkedin and Total. What makes the situation worse is Total's inactivity/negligence to frauds on behalf of company. Such a humangous and powerful organization must possess resources to ceace Fraud campaigns started in 2011 and going on with slight alterations (name, travel agents, contacts changing). The scheme is standard but on official site Total doesn't pay enough attention to informing of potential candidates extensively.

Below is my correspondence with these scums and frauds. The first is my request and official answer from Total Oil and Gas company
Thank you for warning us. The offer that you received from Total UK Family is obviously a fake !
Unfortunately, this is not an isolated case. Many applicants are being approached by scammers using fake job listings and requested to provide personal information or to wire money.
What you must remember…
• DO NOT send money under any reasons. Total and its subsidiaries do not and will not ask for money under any circumstance.
• DO NOT supply personal or financial data to persons you do not know
• DO NOT continue to communicate in any way if you suspect the originator may be fraudulent

Subject: Re[3]: Traveling Requirement

Dear Sir, unfortunately I found out about your company and of this situation in general that it looked a bit suspicious. Why did I deem so? Estimate yourself.
The first thing is that I received from official Total Oil and Gas web site sent them a part of our correspondence the following:
"Thank you for warning us. The offer that you received from Total UK Family is obviously a fake !
Unfortunately, this is not an isolated case. Many applicants are being approached by scammers using fake job listings and requested to provide personal information or to wire money.
What you must remember…
• DO NOT send money under any reasons. Total and its subsidiaries do not and will not ask for money under any circumstance.
• DO NOT supply personal or financial data to persons you do not know • DO NOT continue to communicate in any way if you suspect the originator may be fraudulent • DO NOT open any attachments or click any links For extra safety, we strongly advise you to submit your application via our recruitment-dedicated websitewww.careers.total.com."
The second. Please open and read this
link:http://www.complaintboard.com/total-oil-and-gas-company-l3674.html
So I canceled my money transfer to you and now I think that you must give me some explanations about the above.
Maybe I'm mistaken but the facts show in the opposite direction.

Vladislav.
