Hi! I am Sam currently working in Dubai and a newbie in this forum.

I have a job offer to work in Douala from a company called SRBG (Sichuan Road and Bridge Group Co Ltd). However, I became suspicious when I was asked to send "a proof showing that you have successfully made reservations for a place to stay in Cameroon for at least one month (booking it and paying for it)". Apparently, this proof of accommodation is a requirement for application of residence permit.

Please help me confirm if this company SRBG is legit (in Cameroon) as well as the requirement for accommodation.

Enlighten me please...

Hi Sam

I聽 had the same.

Looks like a very thought out scam.

Too many red flags for me to proceed. I think it is a scam.

Hi! I am Vicklif currently working in Bahrain and a newbie in this forum.

I have a job offer to work in Douala from a company called SMCC (Sumitomo Mitsui Construction Co Ltd). However, I became suspicious when I was asked to send "a proof showing that you have successfully made reservations for a place to stay in Cameroon for at least one month (booking it and paying for it)". Apparently, this proof of accommodation is a requirement for the application of residence permit. They are recommended to stay at Ambang Hotel Residence聽聽Douala.

Please help me confirm if this company SMCC is legit (in Cameroon) as well as the requirement for accommodation.

You have to show a confirmed booking, not necessarily paid for. That is a visa requirements.
