Legal assistance in finding out if a job offer is real or fake

Hi,

I got a direct email from a company stating that I'm selected with my CV without any telephonic/skype interview. The following points are mentioned by them in the statement below are true as per the UAE law. Please guide.

The following is mentioned by the company:

It is in compliance with Article 4, sub-section 3 of the expatriate statuary law of the United Arab Emirates that employees should pay work permit processing fees due to restriction by the United Arab Emirate government and against terrorist and money laundry act.

SMC, your employers, are aware of all these and has also made a provision for reimbursement as stipulated in your appointment letter.

Dear Questioner,

There is no such law as Expatriate Statutory Law. The only law which is applicable is the Labour Law.

So it is advisable not to get into a trap. You should inform the local police.
