Real Loser

Alright, I admitted that I'm slightly desperate looking for job but I'm not ignorant. However today I nearly fell into a trap set up by this company.

A few days ago I saw this advertisement at jobstreet.com.




and I thought that since the pay is so high why not try it out! (yaya, i'm stupid, there is no free lunch in this world) So I called that company. The receptionist answered politely and we set an appointment time.

I reached there at around 2.30pm. I was asked to fill in my profile. Then I was interviewed by a fashionable, pretty Malay girl, Ms Maya.

She kicked off by introducing her company, saying that it was an established 5-year experienced company, currently looking for people to enter data for clients. She said the clients are located at PGRM Cheras, Sg Wang, Jln Ampang...... since I stay at Cheras, she said will offer me the job at PGRM.

The work scope is to finish each assignment (RM7 per A4 paper). If an assignment consisted of 100 pages then I can earn RM700 weekly. I was thinking, wah wah so much ah!!!! why not you take up the offer?

And here came the "show". She said since her company offers the consultation and service so she would like to charge me RM163. And after handing in the money and signing up an agreement then only she would give me the job.

OPS!!!!! This is so x^&#****(*09)(*@### of course I rejected.

The moment I walked out from the office, I saw a malay girl yelling at the company, "Itu company penipu, saya dah repot polis, jgn korang percaya, balik-balik"

Huh, I felt relieved, but there were still so many people inside the company waiting for interview. I'm not sure if finally they fall into the trap. Bless them.

Anyway, when I reached home I surfed online and found out a list of scam company. Here I pasted a few:

I wonder why in the earth those companies are still operating out there while so many people were being cheated?!!!! I know we cannot prevent those "real loser" companies posting all these vicious and evil advertisements on jobstreet but this is so frustrating. A person left his message in the forum, claiming that his sole few hundreds were being cheated. Pity him :(

Well, when there is something that is too good to be true, it is usually not true. Haha. I really have gained an important lesson today. My dear friends, be alert when seeking for jobs!!!
