Scam.
If the letter is the way you sent asked the question - it looks like they are trying to lead you to believe they are related to Allstate Insurance.
I am an adjuster - I started out working with Allstate Insurance 12 years ago. I went through a background check, credit check, drug screen, had to take a test (a basic skills type thing- took about 3 hours to do) and a 3 hour interview given by 2 managers. Also - they don't ask you to give them money to work for them. Like other jobs - they pay you to come to work for them.
Their agents are independent contractors. However, I suspect their are equally strict in hiring their agents.
If you want to be sure - contact the Allstate cooperate office. They are based in Northbrook, Il. You should be able to get contact information from them from the insurance department in your state or a local Allstate agent. I no longer work for Allstate Insurance so I don't have a number to give you for them.
As far as I know, Allstate does not sell insurance in Nigeria and they do not maintain call centers their.
Heck - you may want to contact Allstate Insurance just to let them know this is floating around. They probably already know - but it may help them to track it. |

MOST e-mails from anyone claiming to be in Nigeria are SCAMS. Often, the reply address for e-mail back to them ends in .FR, or .SP, or .DE. This tells you what country they are in, like France(FR), Spain(SP), or Germany(DE). Check with a LEGITIMATE office of ALLSTATE in USA near you to see if such positions are really available. Their corporate headquarters is in Oakbrook, Illinois. |

It sure sounds like a scam, I certainly would pursue them in regards to salary, benefits, and so on. So many scams are from Nigeria, it is hard to believe this could actually be a real offer. I have an awful feeling, someone soon will start asking for money. |
