Answer 2

There is Asmak which is a publicly traded company but they don't solicit employees like that. Perhaps this is a scammer trying impersonate them. The real Asmak specializes in Fish. If the job offer has nothing to do with Fish, Fish Agriculture, or whatever relates to that , then it is probably a scam , and not the real deal.

Many of the scam offers actually don't originate in UAE , they come from various countries like Malaysia and Nigeria, but they do impersonate companies from UAE so be careful.

Answer 3

Hey I have worked in Dubai but I have not heard of this before. Try checking their website out. I actually got an offer from Crown Spa hotel in London n it seemed real i mean they gave me an online interview and everything but than they asked me for registration fee which was 380 ponds so they could process my visa so I looked at the site it was real but the hotels website was CROWN SPA and theirs was CROWN SPAR so just b careful if they ask for money transaction forget it. When I was called to Dubai they had to get me a visa place to stay n ticket without charge to me. so tc

Answer 4

Such offers esp from Nigeria are usually a fraud. People are lured to that country, kidnapped and then released after payment of a hefty sum. Sometimes money are taken on the pretext of making travel documents and papers

Answer 5

Never heard of it. Never deal/tranact with anyone for a job unless it is face to face or you are given evidence of it being a reputable company etc..

Answer 6

If you didn't apply for it or if he has anythingto do with money transactioning or asking for really personal information, SS number or bank account details, then no! Its a scam!
