Something Wrong With These 3 Organizations

Dear Skunks, A friend of mine who just cleared campus received a job interview invitation from some organization calling itself Living Fund International ( www.livingfund.org) and she was required to do some prometrics tests before attending. 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. One of the testing centres is apparently www.escbon.com, 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. Anyone ever heard of or had experience with Escbon International ( www.escbon.com) or another name they used to go by Gaosco International ( www.gaosco.com). 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. Anyway, let me continue watching Steve Jobs at WWDC. Just look at these emails below: -------------------------------------- Email 1: Dear Lilian Manjuki, Having reviewed your application,qualifications & experience, we have pre- shortlisted you for the position of Administration officer -based in Juba, South Sudan, HOA Program with travel to Lokichoggio Attached to this email is our entry assessment form for new staff joining the organization.Fill it honestly and accurately and return the same to me as soon as possible as we need to fill the position urgently .
