I was contacted in LinkedIn for a role in the UAE, saying that it pays 85k+ bonus in pounds (no taxes). Is this a scam or what? Real LinkedIn recruiter.

So it's legit. I used to live in the UAE, but the no income taxes is up to the current foreign deduction amount, which I believe is $100k or so. So let's say you make 85K + 50K bonus = 135K. You'll be taxed as if you made $35K (135K-100K). Now... living in the UAE is a whole different story. You meet interesting people there, can travel a lot, but it is a city built by slave labor. Wouldn't suggest it more than a year.

I mean that the no taxes part seems kind of illegal

It's like 5% or less income tax although you may have to pay taxes in the US (for US citizens). Anyway def worth checking it out if you don't mind the heat

If the job is in Dubai, take it!!!
