I would like to report a fraud on fake job offer where I have send all my documents until I was ask to pay money and then thought about a scam… I have answered to this email address hr_msccruisesrecruitment@admin.in.th to a job offer for a dive instructor position for MSC Cruises based in UK. After several email with Captain Mario Stiffa including some where I had to fill my details, passport scan, address etc, I received an email from an "immigration department" immigration.permitdept@london.com asking me for my passport details, invitation letter from MSC (they send me one) and then to pay 400£ for processing. I received several phone call from the named "Captain Mario Stiffa"… I had an internet search on him at the beginning and the real MSC Cruise does have a staff named like that. Then I checked the name and address of the receiver (Caroline Fringes, 100 New Kings Road ,Chelsea, London, SW6 4LX ,United Kingdom) of the 400£ and found some information about scam. Note that this process took around 2 weeks, a certain number of email exchange, phone calls... I'm at your full disposal to send you the copy of all email exchanged if you are interested, Hoping that helps
