Share the email text here with your details taken out

Whether is genuine or not can usually be determined based on grammar, unrealistic job promises and even the email address on the letter which probably should be something like @planetshrimp.com

If you look at the planetshrimp contact details the phone number is different http://www.planetshrimp.com/contact/

The format is the same as many other scams you will see on here where these people use a valid company name and even address but then the job offer is totally fake and absolutely nothing to do with the company whose name they are using.

They get people to pay money on the promise of a job but there is no job and you could even find your identity documents have been used in some sort of Id scam. Unfortunately people still fall for it.

Who on earth pays 15000 a month plus 500 a week allowance for a farm supervisor which coincidentally adds up to 17000 a month not as quoted 15500.

So do not send any money or any documents to this person, you will not see anything in return.

Here is a similar scam

Its has the signs of a scam all over it, the poor grammar/spelling, very high salary by Canadian standards..even a director at a respectable local company wouldn't be paid that high.

Secondly, it just seems you sent a resume and got an offer in return..this doesn't happen in canada, even for the lowest paying jobs there is still lots of competition, candidates have to go through rigorous interviewing process/reference checks, background checks and etc.

As with all these scams it is a shame that anyone who has been unfortunate enough to fall for these scams does not feed back their experience. It is almost as though once someone has been taken in they are too embarrassed to admit how naive they have been in not seeing through any offer.

These people prey on the fact that some people are desparate to find a way to secure entry to Canada and whether they score a few hundred dollars for each hit or sell off someone’s identity , job done for them and must assume people do fall for it enough times to make it worth their while.

Basic rule though should always be if looks to good to be true then for sure it is and should be avoided.
