Question

I have recieved job contract from TOTAL NIGERIA located in Lagos Nigeria, is this company existing.?

Answer 1

Obviously it's a scam if they're from Nigeria, you don't know who they are, and you've suddenly got a job offer from them out of the blue.

Answer 2

I just stumbled upon this question and since I am from Nigeria but not residing there, I give you heads up.

Yes Total Nigeria exists, one of the biggest oil firms/contractors in Nigeria. First confirm and ensure all your contract whatever is original and genuine then give it your best shot. Are u an expatriate worker? You need to find out about the current situation regarding expatriates over there, a lot have been going wrong. Try checking on the net or your embassy. Cheers!!

Answer 3

Anything out of Nigeria needs to be taken with a grain of salt bigger than Nigeria itself. If they want your money, it's definitely a scam.

Answer 4

No I smell SCAM, Run for the hills...

Answer 5

This company could be listed on the internet as legitimate and still be a scam. Over the years I have been on the internet I have had hundreds of scam mails from Nigerians. I do not at anytime respond to these mails. I suggest you block this type of mail.

Answer 9

Send US troops to Nigeria, hey at least they'll have a better chance of winning. The scams that come out of Nigeria are SO stupid, scamming eBay sellers, ripping off Pay Pal and just plain ignorant people. These con artists would be better off being fed to dogs, they couldn't lie straight in a bed.  The sooner they are caught and shot the better.

Answer 10

you must ask yourself why would you receive a letter out of the blues? from some co. in Nigeria , if you personally did not ask for this job?

beware! if you continue to communicate with such scams letters.many people have been cheated out of thousands of dollars or other moneys,

theses co. prey on persons who are looking for a better living elsewhere ,and unfortunately get cheating out of money :

it is a scam ; do not respond to that add again ......
