This is fake job scam.  Read www.scam-job-emails.tk to learn how to tell when a job offer is a scam.  If you are not interviewed in person, face to face, the job offer is a scam.  If you are asked to pay any money for any reason whatsoever, the job offer is a scam!

I tried, but its shows invalid. Whereas call was received from the same no.

Hi Yatin

The same FAQ letter i have received , note the 24th point....They will arrange a agency we have to pay. The agency name is OFSLEGAl....if you contact them for visa processing they will ask you money.

The company is true but scammers took over the website and modified small change in site (phone number and other things).

The scammers are really brilliant and make this like a true offer.

I have also received the phone in same number at Oct....After one month then have offered me.. i thought it is true...

I have sent a mail to John berry limited regarding payment. Waiting for then to reply. If a true job they will contact us...If not then it is full of fake

If true we all will go together . If not we will raise a complaint together too

Hi Friends,

I also have similar doubts as you all have.

I received LETTER OF INVITATION for Joining from - Jberry Solutions  <joining@jberrysolutions.com> on 7th November.

Then i started searching about the company and found that seems registered in UK but there is no any website for JOHN BERRY LIMITED,What i found is only jberrysolutions.com.

 

There website is designed by  http://www.salientthemes.com/product/business-eye-pro/  they have purchased this website by paying just a $44.If you check www.salientthemes.com you will get idea about the website that www.jberrysolutions.com is using right now.This theme is designed in April 18, 2017.So how come a 17 Years old company website is using theme of just 7 Month old website.

 

If you check their financial updates posted by various auditing companies in UK its always in loss,this John Berry Limited never made any profit since their inception.

 

There is no proper linkedin profile for this company.No any facebook details about their HR team like.

No news,No videos,Just found some 2 -3 employee details of JOHN BERRY LIMITED.

 

Lets connect all friends here and be informed about all activities.

This company looks suspicious to me.
