what next
dear all, sadly I didn't find any company named this but the only one with website prodecopetro.com, I did some goggle work but no success which may lead us to genuineness of offer. however, as their website says its a listed company at Nigeria stock exchange, but I didn't find at official website (http://www.nse.com.ng/Regulation/ForIssuers/Pages/Listed-Companies.aspx)!
Eventually, what you friends are up to, pls do share your next strategy to conclude.
thanks

FROM THE INFORMATION DEPARTMENT OF PRODECO PETRO LIMITED

Dear,

Your e-mail was received, which you requested us to help you confirm the authenticity of your employment.

With this, we have tried to create so many awareness to job seekers so as to minimize the rate of job scam over the internet. An example of that is the scam warning on our website.

As for your case, I hereby want to inform you that I have been in touch with the Recruiting Department of our company and I'm pleased to inform you that the job is genuine as you have been successfully employed by our company (Prodeco Petro Limited) for the execution of our ongoing project. What you have to do now is to get your Valid work and residence permit documents ready so that we can start the processing of your Visa, Air Ticket and other required traveling documents you shall need.

Dear Daudu,

Is there any payment from the afri travel which I heard they are asking USD400 to process the visa, where the usual procedure the company will shoulder the expense.

How many construction Manager you hire? and how about the security of the expat to work with in your company? it is safe to work in your place?

What is the particular project recently we are assigned in case?

Sorry for this question prior to confirmed the offer.

Reply:
You will have to take care of 25% traveling expenses as stated on the contract and it is normally $400. I want you to know that this is in line with the Nigeria employment policy so there is no way we can pay this money for you for we shall be taking care of your Visa, AIr Ticket and other required traveling documents and the money you spent will be reimbursed as soon as you resume work on site. We also hired some other people for the job with the company and the security of our employees is guaranteed. You shall working on the construction of an Oil refinery here in Nigeria.

Faithfully Yours,

prodeco petro ltd
I also received an Prodeco Petro LTD for the position of Construction Manger. I spoke to the HR manager Tunde Fadiga briefly by Skype on Thursday and as with the others no camera was on. I received a job offer and contract today. I do not remember applying for any positions overseas. Is this real?
