I also got an email from Gucci Industries UK about a month ago and knew it was fake because it was from [protected]@YAHOO.com and not an @GUCCI.com email address, BUT I answered their interview questions anyway just to see what these guys have up their sleeves. I've been offered a job internationally before and the process of screening was way more intense than these bozos.

Anyway, I got an email from the company today (Jan 23, 2009) offering me the designer job. This time the email was from [protected]@LIVE.com First it was at YAHOO and now it's from MSN. They couldn't keep it straight.

They must be amateur scam artists to think that an applicant would be offered a job with NO phone interview, NO copy of their Passport, NO Portfolio samples, NO reference letters, etc... And then, expect the employee to pay for their "business/first class" plane tickets. LOL Gucci is way more classy than that.

I hope these guys are arrested and fined before they master their craft in scamming innocent people. I truly hope no one fell victim to this scam. And, if someone did, I'm so sorry to hear, but please don't be shameful; we all want to hear your story. I know my comment may seem harsh against victims, but I don't mean to make you feel shameful or naive/gullible. I'm sure we are all curious about what happens when the victim actually shows up to the human resources location in UK. Please share your stories so NO ONE will be a possible victim.

i got the job offer from Gucci & stating that you had selected. I am wondering how comes it is possible with out any technical interview, and they had asked to pay all the traveling costs & it will refund once we joint the company
Even i got the offer letter, but i did accepted the letter then they sent me the indian account# of HDFC with name and PAN #. Even they (london travel agent) called around times and asked about if any doubt. now i am confused. They told they will send the travel documents thr' DHL with is a week after i send money to them. Really confused.

VISA PROCESSING FORMALITIES/CONTACT DETAILS OF THE

TRAVELS AGENCY.

The Hard Copies of your Confidential Invitation Letter and other Supporting Documents has been sent to the British Immigration Service for their review and verification.

Kindly note the following Points:

1. PROCESSING O[censored].K WORK PERMIT VISA

Job applicants MUST contact the TRAVELS AGENCY for there travel documents to request for the requirements and cost details for processing the U.K Work Permit Visa and other supporting documents that will be needed for entry into London. All Contacts SHOULD be made immediately as late application will be detrimental and GUCCI DESIGNING CO. will not hesitate to revoke this opportunities as there are lots of Job applicants interested in this opportunity.

BELOW ARE THE CONTACT DETAILS OF THE TRAVELS AGENCY

Email: [protected]@live.com
CONTACT PERSON

TEL: +[protected], +[protected]
Designation: VISA.HEAD/PERMITS OPERATIONS

2. RE-SCHEDULE OR EXTENSION OF JOINING DATE.

Job applicants MUST meet and submit all Visa requirements to the TRAVELS AGENCY Service before any request for re-schedule or extension of joining date can be granted. Applicants MUST note that we will never grant such requests unless all Visa formalities MUST have been met.

Applicants who do not require Visa to enter the U.K MUST submit their Flight ticket fees to the TRAVELS AGENCY for the booking and purchase of their flight from London city.

Applicants are to note that meeting all Visa requirements of the TRAVELS AGENCY Service guarantees GUCCI DESIGNING CO. of applicant's seriousness and commitment to work for us.

3. APPLYING DIRECTLY TO THE U.K EMBASSIES WORLD-WIDE

It has come to our notice that most applicants prefer to apply directly to the U.K Embassies in their various locations and when they make applications, their Visas are usually denied especially Job applicants from Africa, Asia and the Middle East. When such visa applications are denied, it takes approximately 90 days to re-apply or make a second application and during this time, the Company will not be patient or wait for such an applicant, we usually revoke their offers immediately and recruit some other applicants.

Hence, to ensure that you pass through a hassle free Visa application process to the U.K, We have affiliated with the Local Immigration & Visa office here in London, the British Immigration Service. They will assist you with the Visa application, processing o[censored].K Work permit and other relevant Insurance and Travel packages that will be required for your legal entry into the United Kingdom.

Making an application with the TRAVELS AGENCY guarantees your Visa approval and in a lesser time as compared with applications made directly to the U.K Embassies. Once they get all your necessary papers processed, they will fax copies of the same to the U.K Embassy in applicants Country of location and such an applicant will be prompted on when to visit the embassy with his/ her passport for the Visa stamp.

This is the easiest process for International employees to meet up with Migration Formalities and join us as soon as possible.

4. IMMIGRATION EXPENSES, FLIGHT TICKETS & OTHER EXPENSES

Job applicants MUST bear costs for their Immigration expenses and submit receipts of payment(s) for the purpose of reimbursement. For no reason should Job applicants request that we shoulder such costs as such requests will certainly be turned down.

This is sequel to our past experiences we had with some Job applicants from Africa, Asia and the Middle East where GUCCI DESIGNING CO. shouldered all their Immigration expenses, paid them their Upfront Salaries and till this time, None of these applicants showed up. The contact numbers and emails they submitted are out o[censored]se at this time, we are currently battling this case with their various embassies in London and the case is on hearing at the London City Crown Court.

For this reason, the Management Board revised her International Recruitment Policies which entails that all Job applicants MUST bear all travel costs and on arrival to London, present receipts of payments made and will be reimbursed accordingly. Any applicant who finds this unbearable should forfeit this opportunity immediately.

5. RE-IMBURSEMENT OF IMMIGRATION EXPENSES, HEALTH CHECKUP & OTHER EXPENSES

All expenses made by Job applicants will be fully reimbursed on arrival to London or if applicants meet all Immigration requirements, we will send the Salary & Reimbursement application Forms for applicants to complete and return to our Accounts department for approval. Once approved, we will authorize our Bank to transfer funds to any Bank Account designated by such an applicant

I was very happy and excited and searched a lot for this official website...there i felt doubt...and also contacted some officials(UK embassy) and came to know that this is fraud...so dnt waste your time...

IT is a fraud...this person is sitting in Nigeria and other West African countries, not from the UK! So guys be careful...dnt waste you money on this person...


Proof of the Scam:- you can find more details on this website

http://www.419scam.org/419-phone-uk.htm#phone-uk


Scam phone numbers in the United Kingdom (+44):

Most "419" scams using +44 70xx numbers involve emails that are sent from Nigeria and other West African countries, not from the UK! If you see a +44 70xx number in a 419 scam email it usually means you're dealing with criminals based in Nigeria.

UK phone numbers starting with '70' are "Personal numbering" in the "Find me anywhere" range. Charges for calls to these numbers are not distance-dependent. They can cost as much as UKL 0.50 (USD 0.90) per minute to call and can forward the call to virtually any phone number in the world. Forwarding numbers can be set up for free and completely anonymously via websites such as uknumbers.com.

In most cases when you call one of these numbers the phone that starts ringing will actually be a mobile phone somewhere in Nigeria, as the UK number has been programmed to auto-forward calls to another number. These +44 70xx numbers are used as a redirector service to obscure the fact that the person taking the call is not actually based in Europe. The UK number is used to lend credibility to the scam. Unfortunately the authorities in the UK do not seem to be taking action to shut down such phone numbers.

You can use the PhonePayPlus number checker to find out what phone company the number is assigned to and the phone and email contact of the company where you can report the criminal abuse of their numbers.

Thanks.
