SCAM ALERT…As posted on “myesljobs” and “eslemployment” and other sites…

**WARNING! Do not reply to any Europe (esp. Spain) teaching listings (or Dubai ones) found on the sites “myesljobs,” “globalesljobs,” or others referring to the fictitious “hiring Manager” Antonia Rodriguez, or providing any hotmail, yahoo, or gmail contact address, esp. one to “mayorvampiro@hotmail.com. These listings are all fraudulent and the schools fake!!

**The Santo Domingo-based website “globalesljobs” is a clone of the now shut-down site “paidesljobs,” each registered by a “Harry Graber.” The new site also promises that ESL/EFL teachers will have access to job listings in Dubai and Europe after payment of an “access fee.”

**The online testimonials are fake, the job listings don’t exist, and if you pay the fee to this shadowy company, forget ever seeing your money or any results.  The “live representative” who emails candidates back online asserts that most schools in Europe don’t require teachers to have EU passports, incorrect information and a warning sign itself. The site is filled with typographical errors and made-up comments by teachers who don’t exist.  :(

**BEWARE!! Below are the latest listings of the fake jobs in Dubai and in Spain:
