Does an organisation called National Micro Credit Control Organisation (NMCCO) really exist?

The official website of the probably so called organisation seems fake...moreover there is neither information about it in wikipedia nor any news about it anywhere. There is no contact information. They have floated vacancies whose terms are odd. Online there are doubts and discussions of it being fake. Is there anyone aware of its real existance?

    There are scam busting sites with online lists of the names scammers use, their email addresses, stock copy/paste emails, paid-for-in-cash cell phone numbers, stolen pictures and fake websites they use. You could start your search at one of those sites.

    If you have responded to a scammer, you are on his 'potential ******' list, he will try again to separate you from your cash. He will send you more emails from his other free email addresses using another of his fake names with all kinds of stories of great jobs, lottery winnings, millions in the bank and desperate, lonely, sexy singles. He will sell your email address to all his scamming buddies who will also send you dozens of fake emails all with the exact same goal, you sending them your cash via Western Union or moneygram.

    Do you know how to check the header of a received email? If not, you could google for information. Being able to read the header to determine the geographic location an email originated from will help you weed out the most obvious scams and scammers. Then delete and block that scammer. Don't bother to tell him that you know he is a scammer, it isn't worth your effort. He has one job in life, convincing victims to send him their hard-earned cash.

    Whenever suspicious or just plain curious, google everything, website addresses, names used, companies mentioned, phone numbers given, all email addresses, even partial sentences from the emails as you might be unpleasantly surprised at what you find already posted online. You can also post/ask here and every scam-warner-anti-fraud-busting site you can find before taking a chance and losing money to a scammer.

    Extremely fake...

    They are claiming to have over 1700 employment openings ranging from Credit Manager to Peon. Here is the catch: In order to be admitted for the required "testing" you need to pay a fee of 250 rupees.

    Do you see the scam? They will happily take your money. There is no guarantee that you or anybody else will qualify for a job (that does not exist) and they can process thousands of people and keep the money.

    The wording and lack of grammar shows that they are not familiar with the english language and the website has been created at the beginning of October.

    As you already figured out... they are not accredited with any government agency that would license such a business and every single website has questionable reputation according to WOT.

    On top of that they are extremely "pushy" with immediate pop ups on one site that requires you to submit e-mail address, etc. before they let you read anything on the site. (close that tab immediately before you get a nasty surprise).

    An injustice is an injustice. Of course, not everyone would agree gay marriage is unjust, but who are you to prioritize justice? P.S. I'm not saying this to convince you gay marriage is wrong (I wouldn't even want to do that), but just to get you to empathize with them. Why do people protest immigration laws, strike for employee benefits of future employees, and boycott for gay rights when all that time, energy, work, and money could be put to more productive ends? Just because they're conservative doesn't mean they don't have a right to protest what they please.
