Work Permit Scam

It has recently come to the attention of the British Embassy that some false companies have circulated advice that Work Permits for the UK can be purchased for work with "Geoservices UK".  This is a fraudulent claim, and the British Embassy strongly advises people not to pay anything to any of these companies or to contact them.
