Italian tutor needed

Here is ann announcement:
I found this on the Internet and after replying to him, it was cancelled...
I think it is a scam.

Thank you for your response to my ad with regards to the tutor needed. I need a motivational tutor for my daughter in Writing, ITALIAN and so on.

Tutor Attributes:

1. A tutor who must have the ability to break down difficult problems and make concepts into simpler, more understandable terms.

2. A good listener that will be able to understand where a student is having trouble and caring, gentle personality that will take pride in his/her work is what I need.

I am Jasper Cooper, an Australian American, travel a lot due to the nature of my job but reside in the United Kingdom. I’m presently in Japan on a summit & going round the world on a business trip.

Nevertheless, I have a beautiful daughter, Melisa, is 9 years old, which I'm more concerned about. She will be coming for holidays in the states (in your area). She's in the (4th grade), elementary level, she is friendly, intelligent and interacts easily with people. On coming for vacation she will bring her books along with her and the nanny will guide you with area of concentrations that she is to be tutored on, so you will be teaching her ITALIAN LANGUAGE per hour and am offering a Euro 50.00 pay hour (which I have in mind).

I will want you to take her for 2hours a day and she will be staying for 2weeks in the states and which I’d prefer her to be tutored 3times in a week, let’s say a (Monday, Wednesday & Friday) depending on your schedule, probably it can be negotiable with the nanny so as no inconveniences.

I will like to confirm the information's below;

a. Your charge for an hour:
b. Total charges for 2 hours each day & 3 times a week for 2weeks:

I will be favorably glad to read from you.

Sincere Regards,
Jasper Cooper.

Welcome here gabba.

This sure is a scam, so be glad that his email account is gone. He would have payd you by fake check, but for too much, then asking you to send some of the money to the nanny, or to buy music books for his daughter. But that money, that you are asked to send via western union or money gram, will go straight to the scammer.

Hi gabba
