Hello everyone, i need your advice. i recently been offered a job in Dubai in some oil company,then the company refered me to a travel agency which is supposed to help me with processing of visa and work permit to the cost of USD 1500. i have been told by both my employer and travel agency that i have to foot the cost of processing the above mentioned documents and that the company shall reimburse me once i get to UAE. I would like to know the procedure of obtaining a visa and work permit in UAE so that i clear doubts of possible cheating by my travel agency. i would also like to know about the Immigrant expatriate clearance certificate. thank you

dude there are many frauds going on like this.

Check these thing.

How they are contacting you. If through email check if they are using official email address or not? If they are calling through phone check their accent. If you feel like they have wired bengli or pakistani or indian accent. Sure its a scam . If they are asking you to put money through western union . you can make double sure its scam. If they are giving you wonderful offers. Its tripple sure. They will address you 'sir' too much . :P

I also received this kind of mail. They also demanded from me an Immigration Expatriate Clearance Certificate etc

I received such information when I was back in my country, but after much consultations with people who had experience and also asked a friend living in the UAE to help me verify the company, it was discovered to be a fraud. So please thread carefully.

This is clearly a scam and a fraud.Ìý No company that is offering a job would do this.Ìý Do not fall for it.

@ aliserkan :

Please note that this thread is old and you may not receive any feedback.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask them in the Dubai forum.

Concerning your question, it seems that it is a scam. Please avoid falling into this trap.

I've just got this kind of email with interesting offers. Then, they say that due to covid-19 pandemic outbreak I need to obtain an Immigrant Expatriate Clearance Certificate and contact the attorney for processing this document. This is fraud, right? Thank you for all the comments above.

i just got an email from an very well named company in the UAE. I even reply back to their corporate email since they used a gmail account to send the job offer and they told me the offer is authentic. But also i receive an email from their legal partners asking me to issue through them the Inmigration Expatriate clearance Certificate and asking me to transfer AED8000 for me and my family. Does anybody know if this is the correct process? Thanks

Jean Marin

No.. Dont ever send any amount what they asking with you.. Remember this is a money involve. Think that this kind any offer, you should talk them in a web cam, specially if you are looking for a job online. Dont ever jumped in to in... Knows there company first, what's there background, etc. There is no company asking for you a money to process your blah blah whatsoever... It means thats not genuine. Be aware..... 😊Hope it helps u. Thank you.

I sent 1500 for IECC approval through my bank transfer. I will check to see if money has cleared 1st thing in the morning. I feel so ashamed of myself.
