Regarding Duramex Petroleum

Hello All,

It's been around 2 months now where a mail scam has been circulating the internet regarding work in a fake company called Duramex Petroleum in UK. I was offered a job there, but got suspicious for several reasons. I did some investigations back then, and found out that it's a fake. Anyway. I thought I would put all the details here, but it turned out pretty long, so I put it as an article on my blog. I hope you enjoy it, and I hope you take care.

If you are going to post this, you should post links to the other resources other than just your blog. In this case I came to the same conclusion so I'll leave it unless it gets removed by someone else...

And why let it be removed? ere are a few links

It also appears here and here.

As I said, I wanted to put all the details in the post, but it turned out huge. Thought of telling people here to beware.

Because our policy is not to allow discussions of companies by name.
Since this doesn't appear to be a real company, Dave let it stay.

Yeah. That was the whole point. Warning people of a job scam about a company that doesn't exist.
