				| Heard of this place? 
 http://furahilanguageschools.tk
 
 Supposedly offering a start date in February with what seems to be reasonable pay and benefits.
 
 Thanks in advance for any help!
 
 Addition:
 
 Ah, found some unappetizing info on them elsewhere.
 
 Scam operation trying to collect permit and travel fees.
 
 Figures.
 
 BTW, it is worth noting that I am not sure how they got my info since I only had sent two resumes out and have been inactive for 2 years on the boards.
 
 Apparently they have spotters at recruiters and such.

 Note that the website address is .tk.
 
 That immediately tells you that it is a scam.  They are always trolling for suckers
 
 See the scam thread above.

				| Here is the official website for Sharjah Educational zone: http://www.sez.gov.ae/
 
 Now some will wonder why I am posting this Arabic website. It is bcoz the TK website is just an informal forum for SEZ.

				| No he isn't and they are not.  He was pointing out that this scammer is using an odd part of a legitimate website, as they often do.

 So better to say "unauthorized" than "informal" that's what had me confused.
 
 Clear.
