So naturally she called me for advise, and I decided to research further as I have not heard of this organization, and I have been in the industry for many years.</div>



<div><br></div><div>One of the testing centres is apparently <a href="http://www.escbon.com" target="_blank">www.escbon.com</a>, which is supposed to be based in Kenya and they seem to charge some fees for the tests. What I find fishy is that these two domains seem to be owned by the same person (or compan) and I am starting to see this is some sort of fraud being perpetuated on unsuspecting job seekers.</div>



<div><br></div><div>Anyone ever heard of or had experience with Escbon International (<a href="http://www.escbon.com" target="_blank">www.escbon.com</a>) or another name they used to go by Gaosco International (<a href="http://www.gaosco.com" target="_blank">www.gaosco.com</a>).</div>


<div><br></div><div>The thing is I was in Sudan for many years and there is no Living Fund International or Danish Fund International. And Lokichoggio is not longer used as a base by any organization.</div><div><br></div>


<div>Anyway, let me continue watching Steve Jobs at WWDC.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Just look at these emails below:</div><div><br></div><div>--------------------------------------</div><div>Email 1:</div><div><br></div><div><span style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: arial,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Dear Lilian Manjuki,<br>
