Hello everyone, I'm from Indonesia, please kindly advise me on this case.
Recently I have a job application, a job offer and a 13 pages employment contract from the company (let's mention it as T***on F**ds) then also a LMIA letter (maybe a copy) emailed directly to me from the third party, an agency (Br**ks Imm****tion and v**a service inc), and they requesting my confirmation about my awareness of the visa application and whether I want to proceed with the process or not.
As mentioned in the company's prior email, I'm told to prepare a total around 700 USD for the visa application, security fees, etc (incl. 155CAD for visa). Also if the agency requested, I should send the money via crypto currency account, in the bitcoin. I'm a little curious about this for I know once I make the payment, it's untraceable.
What makes me a little confused is, the time frame it takes from the first email to the last is almost a month, and it's in a regular order basis, so it feels like I'm in a truly official recruitment process.
If they're scammers, would they wait for that long? And from what I heard, the scammers usually ask for thousands of dollars, not just $700...
Thank you very much for your help!
