***************************************

First of all there is no such agency as Canada Global Immigration. The governmental agency that issues visas is Citizenship & Immigrations Canada.

This scam cons people into believing that they will obtain well-paid employment with Kutuma Hotels (Toronto) which does not even exist and until recently they even had a false website that looked very much like the real hotel's website. The real hotel is in Montreal not Toronto.

The whole idea of the scam is to convince people to pay a large fee to Canada Global Immigration for the proper documentation needed to enter Canada and work. Of course once they get their hands on your money you never hear from them again and, you guessed it, NO VISA.

This is not the only such scam involving work in Canada so be extremely careful. First of all NOBODY ever will send you an e-mail offering a job that you personally have not applied for in advance. That just doesn't happen in the real world. If anybody offers you any kind of employment based on first paying some kind of fee, you should consider it a fraud right away.
