Scam.

The Swedish Ministry of Labour uses a yahoo email address instead of a government domain??

I'm going to guess that the "MOL" is going to ask for fees, documents and bank account details at some point.

That's a dead giveaway that it's not a European. No way a Swiss would ever be so sloppy with majuscules.

Yeah, I didn't really notice that email address. No official gov't office uses a yahoo address, right?

actually a lot of smaller embassies here in Korea use private sector email addresses.

Just ask them for pics, how they got your info, etc etc.

I know how they got my email. I applied to a job through the email address that replied to me (not the 'MOL' one), though I'm pretty sure the job said Korea.

Now I cannot remember where I saw the original ad and email address.
