There is an email ithat sends bogus job offers to applicants using the email address info@workabroad.com. From the subject line of the email, the sender pretends to be an agency from Europe and it is able to attract applicants by details of a fake job opportunity in a European country such as Ireland. The message also requires the applicant to submit a set of personal requirements which can be obtained only upon paying EUR32 or Php1920.
