Dubai Modern High School UAE

Hi I have received the same email today.

It is an scam because the real website of the school is

https://www.gemsmodernacademy-dubai.com

And if you see the email is sent from a gmail account which is not normal.

I have forwarded the email to the school principal

Mrs. Nargish Khambatta

Principal - GEMS Modern Academy

[email protected]

It is a shame because the job would be amazing, but too good to be true.

I hope that they will do something to get these people, although who knows where they are.

It is 100% a scam.  Any job offer out of the blue which asks you to pay money for any reason is.

And post on the UAE forum - these are Saudi Arabia forums.

@ Sky fall : Your topic is now on the United Arab Emirates forum.

Thank you,

It is a scam for sure.

so, is this a scam? Because I also receive the same email. Let me know.

Hi there,

Good day!

I received an email yesterday informing me that my application for a position has been successful.

I wondered if anyone can advise me further if this offer is LEGIT or SCAM.

They have requested me to get in touch with a travel agency and process my documents. Following this, they will apparently reimburse me for all expenses that I may incur during the process.

Below is a copy of the email recently received,

Any advice on this would be great.

Thank you

Do you really need to ask?
It's blindingly obviously a scam.

Since they have provided the number and other details, do call once and ask everything. It should be a scam, but asking once should not a problem. Just clarify your doubt.

Course they will - If you ever catch them.
Real companies don't ask people to pay, and real companies don;t send out of the blue emails as the OP described.

Don't send any money or you'll lose it.

I also received the same email today!! But now it looks like they're changing it to Abu Dhabi Modern High School UAE.

As soon as I saw the email I knew it was a scam because I never even had any contact from anyone about the job or position when I applied. No call, no video chat, no email to set up an interview time/date, no verbal contact to offer me the job, etc.

Also, from the salary offer in the attached document I knew it was a scam. They were offering $4,000 (USD) more than I am currently earning in Saudi Arabia and everyone knows Saudi offers the highest salaries (for teachers anyway) out of all the Gulf countries. Secondly, their total salary package had me earning more than a medical doctor back in Canada or USA....lmao...these guys are such incompetent buffoons. SCAM!! SCAM!! SCAM!! that's all you need to know!!

Here is the exact email I received today, word for word:

I was asked the same thing once before in a job interview through the phone but I refused right away because it didn't make any sense to me.
Keep in your  mind that anyone wants you to send money to get something they offer, is a fraud !

Good luck in the future !

Good evening,
I have received the same mail on the same exact date that you get it on.
Listen i have not replied back but i was doing a research based on the salary and the accommodation that it will be enough for a living however i just found this site that everyone is calling is as a scam job offer but i would like to know what steps you have taken to confirm that this is actually a scam.Have you contacted the embassy or the police office or immigration in regards in any legal action to take.
Please advice in timely manner.

Thanks in advance.

To keep it simple;

How to verify it is a scam?:   it is a scam if they ask for ANY money for the job i.e. visa, ticket or any other fees.  This is against the law and NO genuine employer or recruitment firm does this in the UAE.   And then there is common sense and logic (put your excitement about a job offer aside and apply this) i.e.

1) Why would anyone offer you a job via email without rigorous interviews and assessments? 
2) Why would a legitimate organization, and that too, an education sector entity, send a badly spelled and grammatically incorrect email? 
3) Why would they use a personal email address like outlook.com and not their official email? 
4) Why would a travel agency process your work permit, when in the UAE, only employers can sponsor the visas?
5) Fake references to laws which will be uncovered in a second with a google search e.g. "Expatriate Statuary Law of UAE", besides the bad spelling, there is no such law.  Google the exact term and multiple scam warnings come up!
6) Fake references to authorities in an official letter e.g. "UAE Visa Authorities".  The correct department is called General Directorate of Residency and Foreigner Affairs

In addition, the UAE Ministry of interior has warned the public about such scams.  Also a lot of the OFW sites of Philippines in the UAE warn about that. Go and search on google for that.

Legal action: You will take legal action WHEN you have LOST the money.  And at that stage, who will you file the case against?  most of these people are not even based in the UAE and are instead using fake addresses and emails.  And even if they are in the UAE, to pursue a case when you are not here will take much time and money from you.

The easiest way to avoid it is to use common sense and recognize this is a scam.  And walk away.  The reason these people are successful is that desperate job seekers are willing to believe anything while ignoring all warning signs. 

I have personally had job seekers get angry at me when I tell them that this is a scam.  However, a month or two down the road, they message me, saying that they are upset and have lost their money and wanting me to give advice to get it back.  By that time it is too late.
