Re English is Fun in Bologna, Italy

I also got a job with English is Fun in Bologna, and did my best to search if its real or not but could not find anything until now,
I have already paid for the visa and flight and they now want the accommodation deposit.

I am going crazy now, cause I thought this was legitimate as i searched the names etc and came back legit. I am not sure what to do,
does anyone have more information regarding ENGLISH IS FUN in Bologna.

I am from South Africa.

Hi everyone:

I've been corresponding with a girl in S. Africa who received a similar offer. She said:

"Hello, I managed to get response from the school, they confirmed that they have not been employing any educators, they say there is a scam that is going from their website and they are investigating."

Looks like it's a scam. Beware!

Hello,
I receive an employment offer like this, but I don't know how legitimate it is, what they offer is nice and looks fine, maybe to good!
Please, if you have any information I'd appreciate to send it to my email.
I'd really like to know if it is another scam.

I heard that it's illegal for them to ask for $ for the visa processing. The English language version of the website they referred me to for help with the visa doesn't work. I have serious doubts this is legit.

I had a friend in Italy check out their website. He was unable to find any courses being offered. I think it's all too fishy.

I also received a contract from them after a 5 min interview. Then, they have asked me to wire 190 Euros for the visa processing. The link and the email to the immigration site is not working. I have asked them to provide me with more detail on the levels I will be teaching and did not receive any clear answers. It does raise a few red flags.

Looks like a scam to me. Let me know if you had anything similar post interview. Thanks.
