ben.jones :
Hello and thank you for your question, which I will gladly help with. Please explain your situation in a bit more detail

Customer :
Sure thin there is a website on line called "mining Australia" they can give you in sight for mining jobs in Australia, its looks very Australian however the company is Mining Australia is a trading name of the Nevada-registered company Haldeman LLC at 10685-B Hazelhurst Dr. #6369 Houston, TX 77043 United States.

Customer :
You send $159- and they say they are not a recutment agency but will give you advice on how to get a job in the mining industry

Customer :
Have you heard of this as a scam or ????

ben.jones :
ok let me make a few enquiries and I will respond shortly

Customer :
cheers XXXXX XXX

ben.jones :
do you have the site address please?

Customer :
www.australia-mining.com

ben.jones :
You are correct in your research so far. This domain name is XXXXXXXXXX XX the company you mentioned, which is located in the US. This is already a big red flag.



The Australian mining scam is a common scam these days and many people have fallen victims to it. If you search the internet you will find plenty of stories on the internet about these types of scam.



It is not usual for recruitment companies to ask for payment in advance and they will usually get their commission from the recruiting company. So whenever you are asked to pay in advance for someone to find you a job, then you know it is likely a scam and I suggest you do not get involved with them.



Customer :
ok thank you. so these people can have australian bank accounts? and representatives in australia who contact you and speak directly to you as well?

ben.jones :
This has been reported in the past. It is not uncommon for thek to have an 'associate' in the country but for the legal entity to be in a different country to ensure any legal action is difficult. So proceed with caution

Customer :
ok thank you for your help greatlly appreciated
