I got a call from a company doing recruitment in SA for "Five G" from the UK... my alarm bells are going off and I was wondering if there are any other people who have been approached?

Company apparently deals in VOIP and is looking for SA'ns because they "are hardworking"

Alarm bells:
-Girl phoning sounded like she's giving a sales pitch rather than recruiting
-Girl is definitely not a recruiter: asks stuff like "Would you be interested in an international company", etc and never asked me where I completed my studies, never asked me where I currently work (only asked what I do at my current employer).
-Everything works through a "manager" who has final say about everything
-They are not at liberty to say anything about the job and/or the company
-They are not at liberty to give any of their contact details to me
-They only have one specific time for a presentation-interview in Bellville "because the guys are coming from London"
-After being vetted by the sales-pitch-girl and contacted by her manager, she phones saying "CONGRATULATIONS you have been selected to come for a very special interview" ya-da-ya-da.
-Absolutely NO referral to 5G or Five G on the internet (other than a gardening company)
-Sales-pitch-girl "will phone me later with an address for the interview"
-Sales-pitch-girl said "some offers will definitely be made at the interview session"

Anybody here who knows anything of this?

oh yes, and they apparently got my number from "the agency group"
 
or a "commission-based" sales programme where you flog s**t to people and charge them a premium...
 
That sounds a bit dodgy, I would go for the interview though to see what it's about
 
that's what I'm thinking too... just a shame the "once in a life-time opportunity" is at 11am - right in the middle of an extremely hectic day...
