I have got an offer to work with Warner Bros through online procedure. Can I trust these kind of jobs?

Question

I have appointment letter of Warner Bros Entertainment UK, London from Mr. Jayne Trotman

Manager (Hr.Department)

Warner Bros Entertainment UK

Address Warner House

London, England WC1X 8WB

Tel: [phone]

He told me for contacting me to Mr. Jones Castrol (Director)

United Kingdom Bureau of consular affairs.

United Kingdom

E-mail: [e-mail]

Now Mr. Jones tells me that I need to send the money worth 800 Pounds to a person in Malaysia. After that, he will process my Visa & travelling papers. Is this information genuine or not? All my contacts with Jayne Trotman & John Castrol have only been through emails. Can I go ahead & apply for this job thinking that I've got a gr8 opportunity to work with Warner Bros...Please advice

Answer 1

Sorry, this is a scam. There's been some others floating around too. The Warner Bros address is correct and J Trotman does work there, but she is a 'she'! Don't send any money!!!

Answer 2

this sounds like a scam to me. Personally, i would contact warner bros directly at their head office (do not phone the number they give you, this is a mobile nummber and is almost certainly a scam; real central london numbers have an 0207 area code) and tell them about this jones castrol person; they can inform the police fraud squad who will send round a couple of officers to kick his door down!
