I received the same email on the 9th July,

I applied for my husband and they sent through the Offer Letter and the GATSA Form. I almost sent through his passport copy and all our details, but something in me said I should google champbellwrit -christchambers.com, and that's when I came across all other peoples email about a scam.

My husband was so excited in going and work overseas. These people must be bought to justice as there are playing with other peoples feelings.

Here is another email scam:

"Dear applicant,

We got your message , but quite unfortunate that our organization does
not assist financially in completing documentations, unless reimbursement
that comes when the applicant must have complete the travel process, showing
and proving that he or she is serious and competent for the service.

We regret any in conveniences this might cause. The assistant we
expressed is by providing an attorney who will assist serious members
facilitate their documentation. We advice that you pay the MRV Fee
immediately so that your papers will be ready in time for you to join our
first list

Regards,
Martin"

I received the same mail and I have unfortunately sent $350 and now they need $1500 for OTIP (overseas travel insurance). I was so convinced it's real.

Thank God! I found this scam.....

Please ppl don't get tempted easily by money. $11000.00 a month is indeed a lot of money in Fiji...
