Hye LYN forummers,

wow I just googled the company's name and this is the 1st thing I stumbled upon o.O I'm quite surprised by how much scams there is out there.

Now this is my story, do please help me identify whether this is possibly fraud or not, seeing there isn;t any clear answer from all the thread I've read so far about this company. Thx!

Yesterday I called to enquire about the vacancies (as advertised in The Star) for their management or graduate trainee position. (in quite a desperate search for a job) salary was within range too. Asked for Lenny Laura as seen on paper but someone else entertained instead. She said the vacancies was still available and to attend the interview the next morning at Plaza Permata. I asked for the company name but they didn't really replied to my answer, and instead, they asked to attend the interview the next morning.

Okay so I was suspicious but I decided to give a try anyway. So I've attended the interview this morning and I just come across their company name (Infinity Rank Sdn. Bhd.) During the interview with Ms Yati, she explained that the company deals as a middle people to advertised products from other company. Currently they are expanding the bsns to 25 other branches (i was a bit taken aback here, coz I've never really heard of the company name before). They even had Jusco and other reputable company's award certificate in that room.

She explained further that there are 3 stages for the graduate trainee position. 1st is to go venture into the marketing section (meaning to go to events and stuff) for the 1st 2 months. Later train in the HR and the last, into administration sector for the 1st how many months I'm not too clear. But anyhow, they will process the application 1st before asking you to come for a second interview. They called me the same evening asking whether I am still interested in the position. I said yes,  and she later asked me to report 8.45 in the morning tomorrow, wear formal attires and bring a pen and a notebook. she reminded me that it would be a full day smth tomorrow (not so sure here coz the line was bad.) but basically i have to leave my day free for the company i guess.

Now at this point of time, i wanted to know more of the company, so i googled about it and stumbled upon to this forum.

What's do you guys think?

Anyone heard of Eden Elite Concept Sdn Bhd? located between gardens n mid v megamall. Brother was just recruited and as usual no pay, commission-based Forex thing. Similar to what some brought up in terms of training and studying market trends, but they are not so pushy on us investing. Please advise...

Hi.

Anyone heard of Korean Press Sdn Bhd?

Mutiara Complex, Jalan Ipoh.
Tel: 03-2775 2717

Previously

Is it possible the one that I called is a scam?
Jalan Ipoh phone number supposed to be 03-6257 XXXX.
One of the old tactics I recall was each time you called to come for an interview, they always ask for your contact number.

Korean Press checks out, but the Mutiara Complex office is a bit of a red flag.
