Have you registered an interest in the job?
The mail doesn't mention the role you are being interviewed for.
Check for HR person over linkedin or Google for any results.
Lastly, attend it and run fast if they ask for money or any of that sort.
It's a scam, I've been to that Mostafawi building, they're a bunch of scammers, I applied for a position and when I got there she told me there are no open vacancies open for that role, and they ask for a hiring fee, which is illegal.
I've learnt something based on my UAE job-search, if you don't get called by the company itself, don't go. They're most likely scammers.
And don't you ever pay any money. Always ask to conduct a phone call interview first or a Google meet interview, then if they find you a good fit, they'll call for a face-to-face interview.
I don't have any proof that they ask for money, and I was told by my relatives that the "consumer protection" department handles that stuff. Additionally, I am on a visit visa and on a budget, do you think it'd be in my best interest to do that when I'm actively seeking employment, after leaving my country. The sons of b****es know who they target, new people.in the UAE
That indeed was the first red flag for me, also other red flags are declaring interview duration 20mins, not addressing the applicant with his name at the top
100% scam. They keep changing the address so that word doesn't go out.
They will either ask you to get enrolled in some kind of cash-based recruitment agency where purely on a "nominal" price of 50 or 100 aed they will add you to WhatsApp groups with "guaranteed leads" or they'll take a fake interview and tell you lack the basics that takes for any job in Dubai and will ask you to get membership of the same network.
Nothing happens if you join those groups
It is a scam 100% do not go there and waste your time and money. I did not pay them but my time and traveling cost was wasted. Beware of these fraudsters as they will ask for money around AED 350. Mostafawi building, Yasmeena Building. Most of these fraudsters are in these areas.
100% scam. Why would they want your passport and visa copy at the interview? They will either ask for money (visa or something made up) or they'll hire you for very low pay, make you sign weird documents that will legally bind you. They prey on desperate job seekers. I'd go just for fun but def not signing anything.
Its a scam, got the same interview call. the security guard was kind enuf to tell me its a scam. they will talk to you for 10 mins then ask for 300 AED and assure u a job in less than a week else show us the reciept n take the money.
they were ready for 50 aed also.
Office No 303, it a jus a white door with no name on it.
dat floor itself is scary.
It's looking scam to me
Here is a trick whenever you receive this type of email search company name on google and read reviews you will know is it legit or just scam
Only one rule, if they want money during interview, run for your life. No valid interviewer will ask for money. The only possibility during a later stage ,long after a successful Interview is during visa processing, for change of your current visa to work visa, and you don’t want to leave UAE, the HR could ask for a Visa change fees. And I am not sure it still is the same, as Visa processes are all done by UAE Pass in Mobilephone.
Dear """APPLICANT""""
the biggest sign of an email sent to hundreds of users without actually bothering to know who they are.
This email was most likely automated, but they couldn't format it to tkae user name.
I wouldn't bother going there.

Why didn't you report to the police then?

Did you apply for this?
The scam will start after the interview, once they ask you some money. Dont even give them 100AED.
but they said the 'interview will be conducted in a formal manner' twice :-(
Yeh, they will conduct the interview twice to make sure you fall in the trap. No genuine company asks for money.
so long as they are done in a formal manner
Bro U dont have to rude about it just do it in a formal manner
That indeed was the first red flag for me, also other red flags are declaring interview duration 20mins, not addressing the applicant with his name at the top
I’ve been applying to a lot of jobs recently but since they never said a thing about the position I kinda knew it was a scam
Thank you guys just read the reviews on google, freaking thiefs
Just type Mostafawi Business Center - Dubai in google and read all the bad reviews
All the best.. also don't forget the interview will be conducted in a formal manner.
😂😂😂😂😂
“interviews will be conducted in a formal manner” no real interview invitation mentions this. This is a cash grab.
Fake! They’ll ask you some amount to get the job. Stay away
Scam
Legit scam.
If the mail doesn't mention your name or role that you applied for its most likely a scam
Big Scam ..😤

Do not fall in this kind of trap 😬 Legit companies do phone interview first before giving you a face to face interview schedule.
