His modus operandi was to post online job ads exclusively for Saudis. When someone applied for the job, the fraudster would contact the applicant and tell the applicant that he would use his influence to land the applicant the job.

After receiving the fee the fraudster would send a forged appointment letter to the victim. But by the time the victim learned about the deception the fraudster would disappear. But detectives tracked down the suspect, spokesman of Hail police Col. Abdul Aziz Al-Zenaidi told Arab News.
