Im unemployed for almost two months here in qatar trying to use all the resources (like online application,newspaper classifieds, friends referral).Just yesterday, i receive an email from Virgin Atlantic Airways, UK with a job offer as senior accountant with a hefty salary of Pounds Sterling 8,630.00. I really applied for a suitable position online at [email protected] last 31-1-2009 but i have a feeling that this is a scam/fraud. Anyone have the same offer?

It is a scam. Virgin Qatar Airways do not solicit applications by sending someone's private personal email.

And also, why they used the gmail account and not a company email account.

Fraud. Scam. False. Everything is a lie. So beware.

when u send lots of applications, these companies hacks such addresses, and try to trap innocent victims, who are desperate for a job.

Pls dont fall into their trap.

Scondly, no company will send you an email from Hotmail, or Yahoo or Gmail addrss.

Wish u all the best to get a good job
