Bahaa it is a scam. Consultant.com is a free email address just like hotmail or gmail and would not be used by a hotel like the Hyatt (high-end hotel). There is no such thing as needing diplomatic seals for your work visa and no employer would request you to pay fees for employment. Visas are only obtained through your country - no travel agent or employer can grant you visas.

I registered here to thank you Ahmed Saied an to thank all admins for this website cause i was about to be cheated by the same guy,but he changed all his information.

after long search in the internet (by images,e-mail name,mobile number,names) even i called the hotel , i found nothing,i was about to fell in that trap.
suddenly i asked myself why i didn't try Skype name,then i found myself here,the one and the only result for that id: jnick915

his name was: Johnson Cage
he posted in websites that Albion Hotel in Miami need 10 receptionists


same contract but you have to pay 250 $US for EMS


Thanks for this website

Please post the new information email address, phone numbers,names and etc. This way the next person who does a search will find it.

Dear employee,

Accept greeting from us. I am just from receiving a call from the proprietor which he said the processing department of the embassy has just notify him that your document will be all ready in the morning tomorrow. He went on to say that once they have been issue, he will immediately be taking them to the EMS mail carrier service to register them for deliver to you.
Note that, what you need to know is that as soon as you collect all the documents that will be sent to you, you need to immediately take them to the US embassy over there. Once you have presented your documents to them, they will contact us for confirmation of your employment and you will be given a greenish form to fill for your visa to be finally stamp and your flight tickets stamp as well and given to you. I have attached a copy of the form that you will be ask to fill at the US embassy. So that you can practice how to fill it before you go there in order not to make any mistake when filling the form.

Also, the proprietor said that, after he has registered your documents at the EMS mail delivery office, they will contact you with the delivery information of your documents and also for a confirmation of the delivery charges of your documents which is $ 250. So get this money now ready so that as soon as the EMS contact you tomorrow, you immediately make the transfer to them for the delivery of your documents. Hope that is well understood?

We have also gotten your living accommodation ready for you to check in and here a some photos of where you will be living. We hope you will love it

Lastly, we will need you to be connected as from 11:am tomorrow in the morning because as soon as the proprietor has had your documents register he will need to get to us with the delivery program to update you with and your appointment program at the embassy over there as well. You need to remember that the proprietor will need to get you an appointment at the embassy. So we need you to keep to time tomorrow online on skype for information on that okay.
