Received Mail “contract Document/ Appointment Letter”saying This Is An Affirmation —fromn.is It A Scam?
This is an affirmation that your experience and qualifications
found successful for the requirements of N.L.N.G REFINARY
OIL / GAS COMPANY. and to this end no interview is to be conducted
on you as your experience is credible and upto the standard of the
company requirement after their screening, your appointment was
approved and accepted..
However, for expatriate services employees who do not
presently posses their valid Nigeria residence and Work Permit
papers, they are to make contact with the address given below for
directives and assistance on the acquisition and procurement of
their valid residence and work permits papers with the Nigerian
Immigration Services here in Nigeria.
Also as an employee, you do not need a Visa to work in Nigeria but
what you need is a Valid Work and Residence Permit. And the Work
and Residence Permit can only be issued and prepared by the
Nigerian Immigration Directly them self and not the embassy as Visa

As soon as it says Nigeria, you can assume that it is a scam.
The first question to ask yourself is whether you applied for such a position. If you did not, it is a scam.
If it asks you for any fees (or directs you to any “agency” that requires fees or offers to process any fees). it is a scam.
Nigeria is so corrupt that it even has a ministry of government honesty (not the exact name but that is the idea). In order to meet with the minister, you have to pay a bribe. If you go to the ministry of documents (again, not the exact name), you can purchase a birth certificate claiming that you were born there under any name and birth date that you want.
Not to be too repetitious, if the letter or offer came from Nigeria, it is a scam.

Their next instruction would be asking you to send money for postal services in sending you the forms and other expenses needed in your application. Its a scam!

Is it a scam?
Do they ask for money? If yes, it is a scam. If no, it may be a scam.

this same exact position that you are mentioning in your question, has been offered to hundreds before you,and people have come just like you asking about this particular job, in this category, not sure how many times i have answered the same thing about the same job.
so it is a scam, therefore # beware #
under no circumstances should you answer theses people, they will try to convince you to send money, and sadly enough you will be cheated out of everything the can extort from you;
so do yourself a favor and do not answer anymore letters as the one received;
