and it will cost $4000, which is about £2000. Can you tell me if this is true that i need an operation license to work in africa? Also has any1 ever heard of the company west africa construction and oil company, this is there website: www.wacogh.net.. As they are saying they are a huge comany, and this is there address: Block 8, building 3 North industrial area Accra - Ghana. and the email address they emailed me from was [e-mail]...and the man says he is called Mr Kofi James. I am really confused and will appreciate your help. Because if it is a scammer i dont want to waste hard earned money.

Answer 1

Try to Google the email (for example, google their email or company name and put it between quotation marks)

You might find other websites that are saying that it's fake.

I've seen lots of these kind of emails, and I think it's fake.

Answer 2

I think that this is a scam. I got an offer from Sandton hospital, Accra-Ghana today. I received a contract document to sign. That document stated that I may need work permit to work in Ghana, and thee was a weblink for the procedure. I searched as much as possible to to find out this hospital in the web and it's not listed anywhere. So I loged on to Y answers to ask a same type of question. Now I think this is a scam.

Answer 3

this is a total SCAM...cus the company they ask you to obtain a license from is FAKE....and no such construction and oil company exists in Ghana.

you need no such license in Ghana...trust me cus i am a Ghanaian.

the site www.fiecgh.com is fake and no such commission exists in Ghana.

www.fiecgh.com is a fake version of www.gipcghana.com

Answer 4
