I just found this in my junk mail box...
Has anyone heard of this or a scam like this?
I have not given anyone my resume for Kuwait.
Dear Mr. Richard
Hope all is well. There are vacancies available for teaching English courses commencing the Fall semester 12/13.
I would like to arrange a Skype interview with you for this week.
Bearing in mind the differences in time zone, please advise when you are available. Our working hours are from Sunday to Thursday (8:00 am � 5:00 pm Kuwait time)
Kindly provide your Skype ID and make sure you have a webcam installed.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Kind Regards

This uni, like a chimera, does exist like many others do in the ME, but it exists in name only. What actually goes on there, is a whole different matter. Perhaps, they got your info from a website and like it.

No, I didnt.
I dont think I have advertised anywhere....pretty sure I havent.
Also, note the tone.....very foreward...which raises my suspicions. |

All I know about the place is all the negative stuff that I read here. It is definitely a place to avoid if you can...
