Hotel Canada / Omni Citi Job Scam (419 scam)

We have come across a number of job offers sent out via spam. On closer inspection they turned out to originate from Nigeria, Gambia and other West African countries even though the "recruiters" pretended to be based in other countries. This particular one tries to lure in job seekers for work in a hotel in Canada, often called "Omni Citi", "Hotel Canada", "Hotel Canada Omni Citi" etc., sent by person calling herself "Miss Rose", "Mrs Rose", "Mrs Rose Grand" and other names.

The objective of such job offers is to trick job seekers into paying advance fees. Any money (usually paid by Western Union) is lost, the jobs don't exist. Once the job offer turns out to be fake the recipient of the payment can not be traced. Therefore don't send money and don't quit your current job. If the offer sounds too good to be true, that's because it is.

See also:

If you receive online job offers, consider the following:

  • Does the email or job posting direct you to contact an email address that uses a free webmailer (Yahoo, Hotmail, etc)?
  • Does the recruiter have a website that matches the domain of the email address? For an email address like [email protected] there should be a website like http://www.example.com and it should be a recruiting company.
  • Does the company provide a postal address, telephone and fax number?
  • Can you independently verify the postal addresses on a Google search?
  • Are the conditions too favourable ($30,000 per month salary, five star hotel accomodation)?
Below are some examples of bogus job offers. If you have received other bogus offers, send us a copy!
