I know someone living in a non-european country who is actively seeking work outside of the country (Europe / USA). The last job offer he received was in fact a scam - a non-existent company.

Now he has received a similar offer under the name of a company that is legitimate. But I'm not sure that they are the sender of the document he received as the contact email addresses for the company and the embassy don't look like they match the official entities.

I'm waiting for him to get back to me and language is a bit of a barrier - but I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions of how to deal with this on a larger level? I'm looking through the BBC website at the moment to see who might be good to contact there, but not having owned / watched a TV in several years means I don't know what the various programmes are.

Any suggestions?
Ten
