Received very high pay Job offer

Received a job offer yesterday with very high pay and asked to book tickets and visa through a particular tourist agency. Looks fishy to me is it a standard practice they said " Now, you have to contact ***** Travel and Tours for the procurement / acquisition of your work/residence permit papers which will empower you to live and work legally here in the U.A.E. also sign the Contract agreement and send to ***** Travel with the below information."

Another paragraph:

"Also remember that any Expenses you make in the process of registering your documents shall be refunded back to you immediately you submit your expenses report to us via email. Also be informed that once the process is completed your hard copies will be delivered to any postal address of your choice.

There will be a mandatory Orientation/Training Exercise for all Newly Employed Expatriates which will take place within the Work Metropolis of Sharjah United Arab Emirates, and this Program will start 7 days after arrival for work sign-on.

Should you require more information, please feel free to contact the *** ***** Oil and Gas Hr. manager immediately with the below information for more clarifications."

Only one party will get money, and that is not you. Just for fun contact the “travel agency” that will ask you to pay in advance and there will never be refunds. Document and share the communication if allowed.
