It sounds like a scam

You can verify this by linking to the only legitimate Mobile companies in South Africa

Answer 4

did you apply for this job?

If you did,  

any legitimate company will pay for for their employees work permits and visas .... (if you didn't, i think its pretty obvious its a scam)

so, no, i don't think this company is legitimate.
