I am a UK Citizen, but I work in Taiwan at the moment. A friend of mine here is from the Philippines and he is keen on trying to get a job in the UK' despite the recent rules limiting none EU immigrants.. His mother in law somehow managed to get hold of the details of a London Hotel.
He wrote to them and this is what they emailed back to him:

He asked me about the offer and i said that it looks strange, as I know of nobody who gets 2700 a month for working 5 hours a day Monday to Friday as a hotel worker, along with accommodation and transport, including 1st class air travel!
I said that to me, although it is from a widely advertised and well known London Hotel, it smells of SCAM!
Nevertheless, I told him to scan his forms and send them off. he promptly did so and got an email by return, same day, asking for 495 GBP "clearance fee"!
I have told my friend to put it on hold whilst i investigate. Any comments advice please? Thanks.
