I might be hurting but to me it is 100% SCAM and you will find yourself in trouble forever...
I am not asking you to believe me but advising you before you proceed you must find out the genuine of employer.

Dear Banke,

I have seen this address also on net which is provided by you to be the real genuine address of Chevron.

Now I'm also in touch with genuine Chevron in USA.

Another thing I'm consulting Nigerian embassy in my country also.

if this is a scam then why other web sites state your provided address as scam???

now its amazing members....I got both addresses of Chevron as scam...from people living in Nigeria...especially near Lagos.

each one is stating the other one as scam...


Any how, can any one tell me why there are scams in finding a job in Nigeria..?

What for...?...what is the reason behind....a simple man looks for a job & there is a scam ..... what for...?

can any one tell me...instead of telling me that this is scam that is scam....

Thanks

LOL :D

NEVER!! Not in a million years. Did they ask you to pay money for anything e.g employement, visa /tickets)?

What you got is a scam! A bf of mine once had test and interviews with chevron and the correspondence were received from email address @chevron.com. Just seeing your post it took me 2 seconds to figure out it was scam! You can call Chevron Nig Ltd tomorrow on  tel numbers I gave you to verify.

I hope this helps

threk456

to me it is SCAM.
May be you can to Nigeria and what is the reality and please update us as well here!
