Lincoln Royal Curise — Fake or not

Address: LN6 2YW
Website: www.lincolnroyalcruises.co.uk

Dear Sir,
There was huge recruitment drive was conducted in Banaglore, Mumbai and other cities for the recruitment of staffs for Lincoln Royal Cruises, UK for their upcoming vessel Seagate 2.
When I checked with their website, it looks genuine and the email address they provided also ends with "lincolroyalcruises.com" and given many of their contact addresses and email of the branches across the world. But I suspect many things as follows;
1. There is no option in the website for making online booking.
2. Unable to track them in google map.
3. Other than their own website, we cannot find the details of these cruise line in anywhere in internet.
4. I have called many of the contact numbers mentioned in their websites but none of the number neither attended nor in service.
Because of these reasons, I am really confused whether this company is existing or not. Many of my friends are already submitted their Passport to the agency in Inida (Pushpa Enterprises, HR divine- Mumbai) and agency assuring that this recruitment is free of cost and no service charge is required except for Medical and TOEC EXAM and CDC.
Their website link as follows;
https://www.lincolnroyalcruises.co.uk/
Please advise what to do on this. and The website was registered in April-2017 and it says, they are working from 2012!!!
I have not seen any cruise ship named after this company- FRAUD ALERT​

And on one of these whatsapp groups these goans are spreading false information to all candidates that their stcw indos cdc all are fake...I showed one of them how to register at dg shipping with their indos number which worked ...but many are still there thinking their certificates are fake which were done by themselves... now every1 has to suffer because of these ###.

They way Agency has treated candidates,
Obviously no one will believe the agency.
It’s not goan people who ruined, it’s the Agency who ruined candidates future.
People are waiting from almost a year and still Agency is claiming that job is sure...seriously ...how can one play so smartly.
The mail stats that because of bad reputation Launch is postponed...what a reason...I don’t know who are you and if you are getting any benefit by supporting them but I can surely understand how candidates are suffering because of pushpa Enterprises.
People are loosing their mind because of the Agency and their fake promises.
It’s the other way happening now because of Pushpa enterprises everyone is suffering.
Now they are asking to com to mumbai to collect the documents as those are very confidential docs. People should stone these guys seriously.
@Riyaraut Have u seen what the goan people are sharing about the recruitment...they even confusing candidates by telling them their all certificates are fake which are not and bdw i dnt know how much u know about pushpa enterprises...but they sent many candidates to abroad without any problem...and about the bad publicity of cruise company reasons...read viking ship launch of 2015 but was launched on 2017...its a new company with new ship so good public response is a must...but anyways now its ruined already so no point of telling u all this...so u all who dnt believe should immediately collect ur docs and leave the candidates alone who have patience...bye bye panvatis. (bdw I am one of the Candidate from banglore, and my both brothers are working in abroad through pushpa enterprise )
@whitewalker
Thank you so much for sharing the information and btw really happy that your both brothers travelled to abroad because of Pushpa Enterprises but if same case would have happened with the people who are suffering now they wouldn’t hav raised this issue as many people would hav had lost other opportunities because of Pushpa enterprises as waiting for their call is like waiting for years now and I don’t think any normal candidate would hav had that much of patience to do that as all hav their own genuine reasons.
Well as u said u r also one of the candidate than all the best for you.
Hello All

I can even share his photo.
Lincoln Royal Cruises is a scam. People behind the scam advertise a number of positions in India. They even organised a recruitment event on the 22nd and 23rd April 2017 which was attended by about 1000 job seekers.

They claim the company was formed in 2012 but their website was launched just in April 2017.

No one within the cruise industry has ever heard of a cruise line called Lincoln Royal Cruises. Ships pictured on their website belong to other cruise lines (Cunard).

According to their website the full company name is "Lincoln Royal Cruise Ltd". The UK Companies House (official registry of all limited companies registered in the UK) has no records of such company. They do not provide a company number or VAT number that could be easily checked.

Lincoln Royal Cruises give the following address as their registered addres: "Brayford Wharf KL, Lincoln, LN6 2YW, United Kingdom". However, there are no offices belonging to a company of such name in the location.

It is not possible to book a holiday with Lincold Royal Cruises through any travel agencies anywhere in the world. This is a clear sign on its own that the company is fake.

The list goes on. We are absolutely confident that Lincold Royal Cruises is a scam.
They do not charge any fees
This is correct, they make it clear they do not charge any fees. This is only to mask themselves as a genuine cruise line. It is illegal in the UK to charge the candidates.

However, they work with a number of associated companies who do charge and Lincold Royal Cruises make it clear you have to pay for their partners' services to apply for jobs.

For example, they require all candidates to take a medical test (12, 000 INR), English language test (15, 000 INR), CDC/STCW certificate (35, 000 INR), etc.

Candidates are referred to different agencies and companies that provide these tests and certificates. However, these are fake as well and any certificates issued by them are worthless.

The only point of this scam is to get money from innocent (and often desperate) job seekers. This is how they do it.

What if you already paid them?
If you already paid them, report them to your local police. We estimate they got away with millions of Rupees stolen from hard working job seekers in India. Many had to take loans to pay them.

Do not report them to us. There is nothing we can do to help you.

You may consider getting together with other victims and hire a lawyer. Again, this is something we are unable to assist you with.

We are working on taking their website and social media pages offline. Hopefully this is accomplished soon.

More information
We received an email from a person from Goa that we'd like to share with you. We are keeping the person's identity private to protect him.

There is a new type of scam in Goa and Karnataka for a non existing cruise liner that exists only on internet.
Its called Lincoln Royal Cruises. the website address is https://www.lincolnroyalcruises.co.uk/

There were interviews conducted in Goa with advertisements appearing in prominent dailies of the states of Goa and Karnataka
the advertisement is attached in the mail.

The licence for recruitment and interview in India is given to Pushpa Enterprises who are execting it through Devine HR solutions owned by Gautam Mukesh who conducted interview along with Rajesh Dhaktode both from Mumbai.

Everywhere it was mentioned only one thing" Free Interview no fees charged". Around 2000 candidates arrived at 6 am on advertised dates and surprisingly all got selected. I was one of them. Prior to the day of interview candidates had to take a token number for interview by submitting 2 copies of cv and educational documents, experience cert. etc. to Arabian Training Center (ATC), a Goa based recruitment and training center also accomplice in the scam.

Candidates had to surrender their passport once selected. Candidates were asked or rather I say forced to go for ILO medical test at a prominent medical centercalled Grace in Margao Goa by paying Rs 12000 INR in order to get offer letter. The test usually costs only 3000 INR at other Director General of Shipping approved centres by ATC.

Later through our contacts some candidates came to know ATC was making a killing by sending candidates for medical via commissions. So I got suspicious and started digging more into this Lincoln Royal Cruise.

I tried to search for all info. Luckily upon finding registration history of website it was clear it was a scam as we all came to know about name of the comapny on the day of interview, the website strangely was registered in the month of April 2017. They provided facebook and linkdin page link which were also April registered.

I started writing mails to UK address email and even called UK and US offices - no one replied to my email or calls. I went to search physical address - the company is not existing at that address infact it's address of a college in Lincoln.

I called US telephone numbers, they get routed to Canada.

I checked physical address of all places mentioned they turned out to be fake.

Now post submitting the medical report candidates were asked to sign affidavits at arabian TC premises mentioining ATC did not pressurise candidates to do test at Grace which was again a lie as we were handed the slips with name and address to go there and no other place.

Lastly I contacted Gautam Mukeesh of Devine HR and asked him why photographs of Cunard vessels are posted on the website. What is the name of Lincoln vessel and IMO? He blocked me on Whatsapp after replying that Seagate 2 is name of Lincoln vessel not yet registered and some other partner vessels which turned out to be small yachts and not a cruise ship (admin note: even these small ships do not belong to Lincoln Royal Cruises). Vessels shown on website are fake and even booking of cruise holidays is fake.
The company is fake and there is no programs to get jobs in this company int he world and in the world there is no company like this do no be chetted in the name of this company this name is for getting chetted for money only
