IT IS FRAUD..! 
Telephone numbers might change.. it's a chain of people routed automatically either somewhere in CHINA or elsewhere.
TEL: +448719156473
00919167031459
The first response to the above number will state that "we are in a meeting and will call us back".

Additionally, the fraud group would ask the selected candidate to cover visa charges which none of the reputed companies would ask for.

Think about it or down to the earth. Act now repent never..!

Recruitment Fraud


Its a scam, no ifs, ands, or buts!
Any Email You Receive From Camouflaged company domain offering you a job on day one is a Fraud!
Any Email You Receive From Someone You Don't Personally Know Offering You Money Is a Scam!
Any Email You Receive From Someone You Don't Know Using A Free Email Address Is A Scam!

Before you accept a job, always check the authenticity of the email address as well as of the company. Check the company website and give preferably a call to the reception desk to know more about the company and about the person who offered you the job. Also preferably ask a local friend abroad to check the whereabouts of such company whether it exists or not.

There are other scam email you might receive from reputed Banks who asks you to respond back to provide your account related information and to change your account password which in no case should be accepted or responded back. A possible backdoor attack or a key logger would be activated to steal your passwords. So simply delete such emails without any doubt.

Quick Response Code

What is QR Code and how to generate it?
Of late it has been seen that the mumbo-jumbo i-phone users are preferring to read the latest news updates/ articles on the move. Yes, it is indeed a telepathic transformation of hardcoded contents at your finger tips..!

The QR Code: The process of reading information has been made even simpler when you see a QR Code in a magazine. Just scan and read it, that simple it is.
QR Code abbreviated form of Quick Response Code is a type of matrix barcode initially designed and confined for the automotive industry.
Structure of a QR code, highlighting functional elements

It was designed to allow its contents to be decoded at stunning high speed.


The QR code is detected as a 2-dimensional digital image by a semiconductor image sensor and is then digitally analyzed by a programmed processor. The processor locates the three distinctive squares at the corners of the image, and normalizes image size, orientation, and angle of viewing, with the aid of a smaller square near the fourth corner. The small dots are then converted to binary numbers and validity checked with an error-correcting code.


To read QR code, you need a QR code scanner app on your smartphone. Lots of QR Code scanner is already available under Android store. Google Goggles and NeoReader are free apps that work great on Android, Windows Phone and iOS devices. I'm using ixMAT Scanner with my Samsung Galaxy Note. You can scan either Barcode or QR Code from any store and search and benchmark the product price online.
QR Code can be generated online for free. One of which is at http://www.qrstuff.com/ , process of creating  is self-explanatory.
