I have been working on my application process with this company for the last month and decided to do some checking up online and found all this Beware!! Scam!! INTeRPOL?? I thought something seemed fishy when they kept asking me for fees I had alread sent them! They frequently forgot what they told me in previous emails, and now I see this? Please, I've already spent $80 western unioning these people money and my time. If anyone can tell me their history with Thaijobplacements I would appreciate it.
Thanks

Just want to inform everyone that the Work in Asia scam based in bangkok has changed its name to Nippon ESLSvc. They are using the name Michael Simpson but be advised that their names do change.
Things to look out for. Don't send your original documnets, don't pay for recruitment services up front.
Greetings.

I would be very suspicious of any organization requesting money up front. That's how 'ESL Asia' (or whatever name they now go by) burned me and many others. ESL Asia will have you wire money to their bank in Bangkok, then leave you with nothing.
Make sure you talk to the school first

I have had an e-mail from someone at a company called Teach in Asia (teacheslinasia@yahoo.com) that is offering teachers to schools for a fairly small fee (upfront).
Do you know if this is cosha? It sounds rather like the ones below, so I am suspicious.
Thanks!

Three cheers to Patrcia , the ESL Sleuth, Hip Hip Hooray, Hip Hip Hooray, Hip Hip Hooray.
Well done Patricia, go gurl go, go get 'em gurl.
Greetings.
I am posting this message to inform everyone that Paul Adler's scam 'company' ESL Asia is in the process of changing to a new 'company' called WorkInAsia which also goes by the name ThaiJobPlacements... and probably another number of names. He has a new web site, a new phone number, and is using a new name, Micheal Simpson.
Thai Job Placements
Web - www.geocities.com/WorkInAsia
E-mail - ThaiJobPlacements@Gamebox.net
Ph # - 66-04-003-7232
Other email addresses he is using are: VietESLSvc@BonBon.net.bsp, WorkInAsia@yahoo.com, WorkInAsia@BonBon.net, and ThaiJobPlacements@Gamebox.net
How do I know this is the same company? Simple actually, I set up a new email address under a different name and sent a message to ESL Asia looking for a job a month ago hoping to find out there newest address. I stated in the letter that I had sent my resume (which I had never done). I only sent a letter to ESL Asia no other job recruitment companies. One month later I receive a letter from Thai Job Placements using the same format that ESL Asia had used when they scammed my back in May. Check out Beware of ESL Asia (II)- a posting on this discussion group- ESL Teachers Board.
They are still around, spread the word. I'll keep on doing what I can.
