1. Hello,
   I received the same from “helen prest” .
   Would be interested to hear what it’s all about. Can’t say I’ve ever been pleased to receive spam, but it did allow me to get to your site. Nice…
   Regards

3. You can see the same .st email address on another U.N. job scam used last fall at Joe Wein’s site, about 3/4 ways down the page:

4. And the fun continues. Seems the phone number listed as a fax is to a cell phone in Richmond Beach WA (Yes I got the same mail in one of my spam catcher accounts.) This was to me what sent up my radar. An ST tld with a washington state phone number and a UN address… hmmm

5. I’ve been hit with these .st fake job postings from the UN as well. What makes it worse is that I work in development and spend a mind numbing amount of time in the UN. Whoever is doing this know what he/she is up to because the language is actually a dead on imitation of UNese. Its the salaries that give them away.

6. I like how long the job descriptions are without actually saying anything. It looks to me like a poor cut-and-paste job from some official UN job listings.

7. I got the same email today from Winifred Blair. It looked sketchy to me because at the bottom of the email it said “Visit http://www.thecouponclippers.com for all your coupon needs.” Doubt you’d see that on a real UN job listing.

8. I too received the UN job e-mail. I then received follow-up docs with interview questions and application form. It all seemed so fishy: the address given belongs to the Italian Mission, the telephone/fax area codes are not listed and are from Washington State, the e-mail address is from St. Tomae, etc. I look forward to hearing what you find out.

11. I too received the UN job e-mail. I then received follow-up docs with interview questions and application form. After that I received the letter of job, employment contrat term and alien employment autorization. I completed all and I send all with my passeport photograph. Now I just receive this e-mail:

12. As far as I have discovered, the main scam appears to be related to getting you to pay an application fee or a training fee. After you pay this, the job disappears.
    So as far as I know, there isn’t anything bad they can do with just your signature and photo. However IANAL (I am not a lawyer) so take that into account.

    Reply

13. I got the same email. they are asking ~$2300 for the training. they had given few phone numbers .. but they all are fax numbers.. I tried to leave a voice mail to call back but no-one ever did. can’t anyone take a legal action on them ?? I assume one can figure it out who are the people doing it ( technically)..

14. I got the job offer today as well as form for working visa application. After my friend check out via internet finally I got all are scam………They’ll ask money next, whatever for training or something, don’t catch further anymore!

15. Dear All,
    I see that I am not the only one who believed this bad joke which made all of us very busy with. I am happy that I did no sign and send my photo too but I hope we can work on announcing to all our friends that no one would make such mistake and pay something for this un existed organisation. my story is very simillar to rikomatic too.

16. I applied to the UNASG offer and was recruited in less than two weeks. I was happy but needed more information. I found your blog and think we should spread the information. What will they do with all the information we gave them? This is scary!

    Reply

17. Folks at the United Nations tell me that they are aware of the problem and have alerted the authorities. So there is probably more going on than we will ever know.

18. This scam is engulfing more and more. I was gullible to a point. Applied but found it strange that I would get a lucrative offer without an interview. Massaging my ego..I thought its due to my qualifications and CV. I did not take any decisions for a while and asked for more information. NO REPLY.
    Before I send in my photo and signatures, I asked a friend in NY to check out the office as I did not find a website. Then I did a google on every person whose name was any of the documents…and discovered this website and blog..that it was a scam.
    They do not give any phone numbers to call. Very strange. They only give fax numbers which have area codes different from UN plaza.
    Learning tips on warning bells:
    1) Big offer …view it with suspicion
    2) Job offer without interview
    3) No response to further inquiries
    4) All signaturies whether in HRD or Admninistrative offices are doctorates for eg. Dr.Donald Duke, Dr.Alice Owen, Dr.David cameron, Dr.Adam Rogers (he is a real person at the UNDP)..according my source of information, Dr.George Giggs.
    5) No phone numbers to call. And wrong fax numbers.
    Time wasted but a good learning experience !! A google search on United States Committee for the U.N could lead to this website which indicates it is scam.
    They use authentic leterheads with authentic UN address. It could have security problems so the US government and the UN should track this down. They could use well qualified honest people’s photos and CV information to make false passports for illegal immigrants, false bank accounts to park african money etc.

20. This is a big shame for UN. how it is possible that someone can manipulate with this kind of organisation.
    I have sent my CV, I have also sent a copy of my passport to this training agency, I am now worried about my passport copy even though I doubt it can be used. About the signature I don’t think its a problem. But thanks God I haven’t been so crazy to pay for training. I’ve noticed that soemhting is worong because I have asked for few times to sned me contract terms, finally I tired to call tehm today and noone responded. Than I was courious to find some more informations about all this on google, and tha’s how I found this web site.
    This world is getting crazy and it is really shame that people are trying to work abroad are getting into this kind of trap!
    In UN you should be more hard on this happenings and cut this track if possible.

21. I wasted a whole day trying to find the website for this UN organization without any success. But thank goodness I came across this URL after before submitting the interview and Employment forms. I must say that the money was really tempting, but what can I say, I was really disappointed with the actions of this group of individuals. At least I wont need to lose $2300 in training fees!

22. There is a similar mail from United States Center for Development(USCD). I got the offer and after googling for the website I found out its hoax.

23. the weird thing about this was that i got their e-mail adress from my school advisor. Luckily I found out about this scam early enough so I didn’t send any private information to them. Good experience though. I wonder if anyone actually paid for the training…

24. Dear All,
    It was indeed very surprising to see such a mail in my mail box. I got this mail a week back and sent my cv and stuff. After the offer letter it was indeed very heart breaking to see this website.
    But anyhow, such spams should be controlled.

25. Dear all,
    The same incident occured to me. i sent all the stuff along with my passport photo, visa application form, employment agreement form but thanks to the god that i saw this link. now i m alert. u know the US police department should take strong measures to control such indivisduals so that the innocent people don’t get harmed.

27. A colleague of mine just got one of these emails today. I googled and found your site. What I noticed in hers is that they also use USAID language, referring to a New Entry Professional (NEP) program, a program which does not exist with the UN organizations but does exist within USAID.
    The email is full of suspicious stuff, as many of you have noted. Also, for those in the know, these US Associations for the UN (UNDP, UNICEF, etc) are set up almost entirely for PR and fundraising purposes. They would never be recruiting employees to work in career positions at the UNDP itself because those organizations are separate organization which are not a part of the UN system.

28. -I “almost” fell for this SCAM that each of you has commented on. I am reproducing the series of e-mails, until their insistence (in e-mail this morning) that I send immediately a Training Fee, by a Wire-Transfer into a Bank Account (A SERIOUS RED-FLAG according to my Bank Manager!)
    -Early RED-FLAGS included VERY poor English, with spelling and grammatical errors. Also, BOTH the US Committee for UN and the Tim McGuire Consulting Agency, for “Training” (supposedly in Seattle, WA) ALL have the SAME AREA code: 206. Nobody returns calls. E-mails, when received are at odd-times (e.g. 4:56 AM, 4:13 AM, etc.)
    -IMPORTANT Job-Offer without a phone interview or a face-to-face interview, even though I live in suburban New York City.
    -The “Training Manager” Dr.(Mrs.) Veronica Snow, giving me her Yahoo e-mail address!!
    -Asking for a copy of MY Passport scanned copy is ANOTHER RED-FLAG!
    -I did a google for each of the people from whonm I was getting “official” e-mails; they don’t exist, at least not in connection with the “US Committe fo the UN”! When I did a google search for the “US Committe fo the UN”, I came upon THIS (your) site!
    -e-mail addresses have the .st or .tm extension!

    (This e-mail from ME..)
    Attn: Dr. (Mrs.) Veronica Snow, TM Consulting
    Dear Dr. (Mrs.) Snow,
    I am a “New Entrant” in UNCOM and have accepted an offer from UNCOM for the position of “PROGRAM/PROJECT DEVELOPMENT Officer” in the Netherlands, which I would like to start as soon as possible.
    I have been advised by UNCOM that I must finish Training, first. I received a blank “Application Form” from you earlier this week. I have reviewed and filled the form, and before I submit it back to you, I have a few questions and need clarifications for the same:
    1. Do I need to pay (by myself) the US$1,980.50 Training Fee first, as part of the Application-Process?
    2. If I want to join the Training either in July or August this year, what are the deadlines to complete the Application-process?
    3. WHERE will my training be (what country and city), and what are the details of the subjects that will be covered based upon the nature of my job?
    4. Who will make the “travel arrangements” for me to travel to the Training site? Who pays for that travel and my stay at or near the Training site, during the course of the Training?
    5. I have with me my original M.S. Degree Certificate. However, I am not able to find my original Bachelor’s Degree certificate at this time. Is that needed also, to complete the Training Application process? If so, will a letter from the University suffice?
    Please do let me know, as soon as you can.
    Thank you.
    Best regards,
    Chaitanya(Chet) A. Kallianpur

    2. No spaces anymore for trianing in the month of August,September and
    October.Trainings are not undergone in November and December of every
    year.Deadline for registration for July trianing has expired but we can
    graciously give a further 3 day extension terminating on wednesday next
    week which is the 28th of June,2006.

32. i almost fell for the scam.What was shocking is that you receive the job offer after around two weeks with such hefty perks that you can not resist,no interview neither have your referees been contacted.were it not for the search of the names of the persons indicated on the job offer letter i would have been done and even paid the training fee.Does it mean that the UN BODY can not do anything about it?

33. hi, i just received this spam too. ironically I was looking for a job in this field and thought, ok, how did this appear out of now where, i am not on a list served. red flag went off with the (206) area code for WA state. thanks for your website on this, i was doing a google search on the so called US-Un org and to come across this page save me a lot of confusion.

    Reply

34. We received the same email as well—I’ve checked it out with the UN & UNDP sites and none came out. Next, I reported it to scamalert of UNDP so that they’d know that up until now, it is still in circulation.

    Reply

35. I received the mail, filled and signed the forms. After I did that, things got strange. Although it was strange enough the prompt response to the application, what seemed more strange were that no details, no phone number, no website were available (I was eager to find out more about my future job). When I received the mail telling me to deposit $ 2,080 USD I googled the name of the account and your page appeared.
    I am scared of what they could do with our personal data of the CV and the scanned signature. I hope it was all about getting the fee, but I am wondering if I need to initiate legal action about it. If anyone knows something more about this, please do let us know.
    On the other hand, this atractive offer made me reflect about where I would like to work in the future, so I will be looking around real UN pages to see if there are real job opportunities, perhaps not so well paid, but rewarding in other aspects.
    I hope the police will take action on this.
    In the past I had received offers of different types: loads of money for helping some African fellow to take money out of his country, from freemasons providing millions for charity work, and other tempting but obvious fake offers. However, in this case I have to admit that it is the first time they almost get me (Hoping nothing further hapens with my personal details, what is all they have).

36. Please get this posted on Snopes.com before more people get taken in. If I hadn’t stumbled on your site this afternoon a friend of mine would have been totally taken in.
    Thanks!!

37. Scary. I am right there with you all. I got the letter, contract, etc. I have been googling like crazy to find out more information on this place. Seemed fishy to me all along, but soooooooo tempting. I suppose if things hadn’t have gotten worse in the middle east I would have thought more seriously about going to UAE…the big stopper for me though was to wire the bank transfer, and then go to my training in Tawain before heading to UAE. This is another document in the whole mess…I got the information from my university alumni site!!! I thought I could trust it – being posted on my alum site….wrong! More docs attached for your view…

46. Sadly enough my wifes sister who is from Burma fell for this.
    She already works for the UN in Burma, and was looking to apply somewhere else for work in the U.S. if possible. So she called the UN in New York and asked them about jobs, and then got the email with everything she wanted……hmmmm!
    How is it she called the “real” UN in N.Y. then got this offer?
    Could it be someone inside? or inside job?
    I asked my wife if her sister has ever met or talked to these people and she said no, I said it is a scam! STOP!
    She had already sent over $2000.00
    In Burma or anywhere for that matter, it’s a lot of money, but in Burma it might as well be $200,000
    Hope these people get caught, but I doubt it!
    Karma will catch them!!!!

48. Hi people,
    I got the good “fake news” yesterday and from compensation offer I knew that it could’nt be true. The salary figures quoted were too high.
    I also noticed that the interview questions were a straight copy from jobsearch.about.com. I noticed the poor english, though given ‘my’ dream job I still filled in the interview forms and mailed them back.
    I kept on asking why someone (the UN for that matter) would offer me a job without an interview? Why would they take such a gamble? Then the googling began….till I landed here. I did not send them my CV but the strangest thing is that I remember applying for an FMO job with UNDP. Otherwise how would the guys have gotten my three names right and how did they know I am a finance person?
    I believe its an inside job or someone has hacked into the UN Jobs dbase. I will never pay anything like registration fees to get a job. The ‘African’ or ‘Kenyan’ I am, I always ask that you get the fee from my first salary.
    Another thing, having read the various experiences on this site, I believe they are getting ideas. For instance earlier on I read something like…No telephone number… No interview questions etc. In my offer they had all this albeit the poor/bad english kept sort of ‘tingling’ in my mind.
    The only bad thing they did to me was….make me pray so hard that it was true. Mmmmmmmh the monies stated in the offer was “mouthwatering” to state the least.
    Thanks to this site and take care.

    The Post offered to me was EXECUTIVE OFFICER on the salary of USD 126,000.00 per annum. i show this letters to my relatives and friends and advise me to go through about the companies, bcos no company gives such huge salary and post without any interview. However when i get this offer, i was very happy..later on i though let me check about this comapanies. When i search through google search,,,i saw lot of peoples gave some remarks on the USCD that this is totally fake comapany and most of the people have already lost their hard earning money..Thanks to google search and to the friends to save my time, money and futures…I suggest to all of my friends to not to go in this fake company. thanks to this site and take care.
    With warm regards

51. What a shame, that innocent people, seeking both personnal and societal fullfilment by offering themselves to serve whenever, and wherever (albeit with such big monies as an incentive, or motivation!) can have their emotions and adrenaline played around with by unfeeling scoundrels. What is more shocking though is that this kind of scam can obtain such audience and participation, without the UN, or US recognizing, let alone taking action against it. It is shameful indeed to the originators, who should use their ingenuity for some positive things and give something back to society rather than rip off innocent seeking people.This site has been of profound help. Thanks for the service.

59. I almost fell for this as well! I responded to the email ad and sent my CV and accompanying personal history forms to a Dr Spiff Michael (of the US Committee for UNRC) and received an offer approximately a month and a half later.
    There were many things about the application process that didn’t seem quite right, but it was when I received a letter of offer (in poorly written English) without going through a rigorous interview process that I was convinced that it was a complete scam…then I stumbled across this site which cemented my doubts about the existence of the organisation.
    So, thanks for confirming that I was a fool to apply in the first place! I wasn’t asked for any money, but my CV did include my personal details (address, contact numbers, date of birth etc.). I trust that there’s nothing that they can do with my CV or the details in it??

60. Hi,
    My wife applied for one of these USCD advertised posititions and was extremely exited after being offered a very lucrative job in Durban, South Africa.
    The elation was however short lived after the cut-and-paste, generic type documentation made us suspicious.We Googled USCD and instantly discouvered that we were “spammed”.(Thanx Google) Not only are the idiots who play this game criminals but the also create turmoil in one’s family life.

67. guys! what to say! I just received the very same message Kumar got. I felt there was something wrong (very wrong) and – after having investigated the matter calling the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs – I did not reply to the email knowing it was all fake. The thing is that I received the email from a collegue who works at the University with me…
    I have sent my CV, even though i did not send any sensitive detail (credit card n, insurance policy n …).
    I want to tell you all that I have been adviced to pursue legal action. I hope they won’t use my scanned signature. I have no idea of what they could do with my CV.
    I believe it’s safer to proceed and take action. At least there will be something written about what happened. I did not set up the radar but at least, so to speak, i woke up in time (i hope).
    take care you all

With your D.O.B. and address a person can get anything from and about you. Whoever wired money should change their bank information IMMEDIATELY.

    Special measures have been approved for locally-recruited staffs
    that are required to report to work during the period 1 March through 31
    May 2006.
    Amount of Hazard Pay
    Staff Amount
    Internationally-recruited staff US$3000 per month.
    Locally-recruited staff
    45% of the net midpoint of the
    applicable local salary scale.*
    * See modalities of payment below for daily and monthly rates.
    Modalities of payment of Hazard Pay
    For internationally-recruited staff:
     The allowance is normally paid on a monthly basis.
     It is not payable for periods of annual leave or any special leave, including
    weekends and official holidays during these periods.
     For staff members who spend one complete month in the area where the
    allowance is applicable, the monthly amount is paid irrespective of the
    number of days in the month.
     For periods of less than a month, the amount of hazard pay is prorated on
    the basis of 365 days, i.e., the monthly amount is annualized and divided
    by 365 days to obtain the daily rate.
    For locally-recruited staff:
     Locally-recruited staffs are eligible to receive hazard pay only on days that
    they are required to work and actually do so.
     The daily rate is obtained by dividing the annual amount (i.e., 25 per cent of
    the net midpoint of the applicable local salary scale) by 365 days.

    HOME LEAVE
    WHAT IS HOME LEAVE?

    * A staff member appointed on probationary basis shall not be entitled to the first
    home leave until he or she has been granted a permanent appointment or an
    extension of probationary period. However, if the Secretary-general considers
    that it will not be possible for the Appointment and Promotion Board to review the
    staff member’s case within six month’s after the completion of two years’ service,
    he or she may be granted home leave subject to other requirements.
    HOW TO DETERMINE THE PLACE OF HOME LEAVE?
    The place of home leave shall be the country of the staff member’s nationality,
    subject to the following terms, conditions and exceptions.
     The place of home leave of the staff member within his or her home
    country shall be, for purpose of travel and transportation entitlements, the
    place with which the staff member had the closest residential ties during

    exceptional circumstances, a change in the place in the country of home
    leave may be authorized, under conditions established by the Secretary-
    General.
     In exceptional and compelling circumstances, a country other than the
    country of nationality may be authorized as the home country. A staff

     Does not apply when a staff member leaves the family at the home
    country, a third country or another location than the duty station in the
    country of assignment for any reasons not related to education or
    healthcare (i.e., general convenience of the spouse or children);

    INTRODUCTION
    What is job classification?
    Job classification is a method of organizing jobs and levels of responsibility in a
    particular order, grouping together similar or comparable jobs according to the
    functions to be performed and related skills, knowledge or experience required to
    discharge these functions. It thus creates a hierarchy based on the level of
    responsibility and tasks assigned and ensures consistency between the actual
    duties and responsibilities of a post and the grade allocated. There are two
    different approaches to the establishment of a salary hierarchy in an
    organization.
     Rank-in-job approach: It is tied to the principles of equal pay for work of
    equal value, relative worth, significant differences and evaluation of the
    work performed, not the competence or contributions of the individual.
     Rank-in-person approach: It is based on personal qualifications, such as
    academic credentials or seniority.
    Organizations of the United Nations common system opted for the “rank-in-job”
    approach mainly because it is less open to subjectivity and discrimination and
    better able to adjust to changing organizational demands.
    The principal objectives of job classification
     To provide for the fair and equitable remuneration of staff by applying
    standards reflecting the internal values of the organizations, uniformly and
    consistently over time; and
     To provide for the establishment of links between the objectives of the
    organization and the work performed to reach those objectives – in other
    words, the relationship between salaries paid and services rendered.
    Job evaluation methods
    The evaluation methods presented below are based on the “rank-in-job”
    approach.
     Ranking: This is the simplest method of classification, in which jobs are
    described and ranked in order of difficulty, following which grades and
    levels can be assigned to jobs. It is a non-quantitative method of listing
    jobs according to the demands they are considered to make on those who
    perform them.
     Grade description: Through this method. jobs are classified by
    comparing them with a predetermined standard and are assigned levels
    which best correspond, as a whole, to their duties and responsibilities.
    This predetermined standard is basically a set of benchmarks against
    which whole jobs are matched to arrive at a grade. It is also a nonquantitative
    method of sorting posts of a single type into classes and
    grades which have been determined and described.
     Point factor rating: A point rating plan is developed by selecting and
    defining factors, by defining a number of degrees for each factor and by
    assigning point values to each degree. Jobs are analysed in terms of the
    factors in the classification plan and assigned a point value by reference to
    the factor and degree definitions. The total number of points determines
    the relative value of the job. This method is used for the evaluation of work
    in the Professional and higher categories because of its capacity to
    evaluate consistently and accurately, the heterogeneous jobs found in the
    United Nations common system organizations. While it is more costly to
    develop and operate than other systems, it is more difficult to manipulate
    and biases become more readily apparent, thus, it is ultimately more cost
    effective.

76. I wonder why people of good qualifications like you all belive this false story so simply Not to mention have a broken heart upon getting the fact like our esteemed sister Alexandera. Ok I will stress here a mathematical fact “0 x Any thing = sure 0”
    this works biway. Don’t expect that anyone will give you too much against nothing, don’t accept to offer any thing to anybody who you don’t know personally against nothing (this may extend also to some people who we know them well)
    Finally, try to be open to the information sources as far as possible, this may prevent you from being the next known victim to whatever bad things……..best wishes for all of you

77. Dear All,
    I too got the vacancy notice mail. I applied and I was sent an appointmet letter with no interview, an employment form and an interview form. I filled them, signed them and mailed them. I received a reply which requested me to pay a training registration fee of $2,990 and to submit the first page of my passport. I then began to investigate. I wrote them to ask them why should a would be employee pay for a training from which the employer will enventually benefit. They have yet to answer this question. THIS IS A BIG SCAM. BROWSERS OF THE NET SHOULD BE MINDFULL

83. I received a similar email. Wrote and sent them my CV. They responded shortly after offering me an unspecified job and training…if only I paid 775 British Pounds. i then became suspicious. Tried to call their number. I was told by an answering machine that “wait until I connect you.” I waited until my connection to the British number got cut. I repeated this two more times, with the same result: PURE SPAM!

    Apart from wanting money for training I’ve heard that another part of the scam is that they offer to find accommodation (after telling you you have the job) and ask for advance monies for this.

Then they send me training details and asked me to pay 850 pounds as registration fee. Then I stopped. I have received four emails from different people, but there is no co-ordination and link of what I have sent to them and it seems like a automatically generated email. But it is really a voilence and torture for the good and aspiring people to contribute to the society.

110. Hey, thanks to you all for sharing your experiences in 2006. My experience is very recent- December 2009! I got the job email from a colleague and I suspect that it is scam…the employment and interview forms aroused my suspicion the more…I just doubt the whole thing: the pay, the format of email, email addresses et al.
     I even asked for the forms to be resent at MSW as I couldn’t write on the PDF files…I got the MSW version. I told my friend of my suspicion and he also was not too sure…and I did google which brought me to this link.
     Thank goodness that I did not waste this night filling scam forms.
     The UN indeed most do something. I will forward that job email with warning to my UNU-IC yahoogroups email.

111. Yes, I m in the US
     I filled in the forms.
     Now I got the email to participate in training. It was fishy ho wfast the process was.
     Did some reserach and found it was fake.
     I am a little worried they have my email, address, personal info from my resume.
     Any harm could be done if they have your adress, name and telephone number?
     How can we report them?
     Thanks

113. This guy is getting more sofisticated. The email I received comes from “undesk@windowslive.com”, and, for the sake of consistency, the introductory sentence is: “Join Us Today To Promote A More Peaceful, Prosperous & Just World Assisted By Windows Live”. The “job offers” do not include places like the Bahamas. Only US, Europe, and South Africa. Do you know if there is any way to report this scam to windowslive?

116. There’s no website listed for the supposed organization. The address is listed as “2 UN Plaza” which contains no such organization, although a number of other UN agencies are based there.
