ALERT * ALERT * ALERT
Here is another Internet Scam that preys on hopeful job seekers looking for an overseas teachers jobs.
It runs off several names :
jobs4teachers.com
GlobalESLJobs.com
PaidTEFLJobs.com (recently shut down by hosting company for fraudulent conduct)

When you contact them, you are told one school wants to interview you, but you need to forward a $45-$100 "application fee" before they can connect you with the school for the interview.
When you pay the fee, for some reason the "access code" for the interview doesn't work, and it continuously gets rescheduled, until you are requested to pay a higher fee, etc.
Remember, almost any Internet site that asks you to pay a "membership fee" or "application fee" to get an interview is a scam. Recruitment agencies get paid big fees FROM THE SCHOOLS to find good candidates.
