Does this countries law activate only when something happens 53 times? Until then do we go to sleep and allow it to happen over and over again? Isn't it clear that we are very idiotic nation?

Unfortunately majority of those who apply for jobs abroad get duped by scammers as they do not establish the background of such fake job agencies and or individuals acting as agents. Desperation knows no bounds and this is the end result. ALL job agencies and individuals should have to register with the respective government body, in order for applicants to be able to cross check prior to applying for ALL jobs abroad. ChildOfGod
