Please Helpoooooooooo is this scam or not?

Dear xxxxxxx

In response to your application,i on behalf of our firm Mclewis Consulting is pleased to inform you that you have been shortlisted for a job with our client as a trainee engineer.Our advert on the internet and other media attracted over 5,000 applications/CVs,which is an overwhelming figure.After processing the applications/CVs, we found only 1,211 applicants who possess the requisite skills and experience to fill the positions available and this includes graduate trainees.

However,pursuant to the fee we charged our client,we can only afford to conduct interviews for 1,000 candidates only.The residual 211 candidates will be droped at random,despite the fact that they are equally qualified for the positions available respectively.Unfortunately,you happen to fall within this group of 211 candidates to be droped at random.If we decide to go ahead and conduct interviews for only the group of 1,000 candidates already selected,our job will still be done.

But the management of Mclewis consulting has proffered a suggestion/solution to the group of 211 candidates and that is that they each pay the sum of N1,500 interview fee.This is to enable us conduct interview for members of this group,to give them equal opportunity to compete with their counterparts in the other group of 1,000 candidates and also to make sure no stone was left unturned in selecting the best candidates for the positions respectively.

If you do not agree to this suggestion/solution,there is no need for complaint or arguement,please just ignore this message and we will take it that you are not interested and therefore not one of those we will be conducting interviews for.But if you agree to this suggestion/solution and are willing to pay the sum,use the account details below to remit your fee.

Bank PHP
A/C No:2632431255
A/C name:Moses C. Lewis

Take note that acceptance of remittance ends on the 18th of march 2010.You will receive a text message on the 22nd of march apprising you of the venue,date and time of your interview.The name of the oil and gas firm which is herein called our client will also be made known to you in the message to enable you prepare better for the interview.please adhere strictly to the instructions given to you in this email.Have a nice day.

Yours Sincerely,
Moses C. Lewis

mclewis has a cloned and questionable identity.reputable for controversial offers.......... that account is an individual's acc. not a corporate one.I think its a scam

This is a well constructed SCAM,any recruitment agency that asks you to pay a certain amount of money is nothing but a real trickstar.PLS IGNORE THAT MSG. >:(

check the bank name again. BANK PHP. the message is clear. u fall among the 211 candidates that were dropped. if u like pay Im naira to the account in bank PHP, u will still remain dropped. no recruiter asks for money from job seekers. well, if u have too much money to waste, pay in 3k instead of 1k5 to double ur chances. RUN WITH UR MONEY.

THE LORD IS MY STRENGTH

It is clear dat is a SCAM. I hv nt seen an invitatn wit so much preaching.

it's clearly a SCAM!.... the whole message seemed to nice.....
