Hello Ksenia,
The position is very much vacant and thanks for your interest in my family, need you to send to me your self photograph, with so i have decided to take you in as my nanny/housekeeper.Truly,here is more about me,I work with inwent intl company a German based company and i have just been recently on contract Transferred to the UK and i will be here for the next few yrs probably depending on the execution of the project..Read more about my company at the company website inwent.org. if you need more about my work...I am the Mother of two kids,Brieanna and Hayleigh and i love my kids so much since their dad died in a car accident with my other son have been alone and am happy been alone cos i don't want any other man to come into my life and maltreat my kids like the last one did but i know you will make them more happy as they loved the last one but he need to go and be with her family after working with me for more than 2 and half yrs..It all depends on how long you want to say as (Nanny, Housekeeper) cos am a very busy Women with my work and moving around supervising contracts and training young staffs and more...so as long as you want to work for then i will pay you... As for my kids they are lovely kids and they are very respectful have taught them to be and to be a good person in life and the only way is by been calm and with respects to elders .I need a foreign (Nanny). There are a lot of (NANNY) and here in UK here but is just that I need a (Nanny, Housekeeper) from outside the United Kingdom that possess these characters of motherly care and love and also well determined to take good care of my kids for me but with the recommendation from you, hence the more reason i may need your services, hopefully you will be my kid's (Nanny) and do according to your words. I reside in 287 Brixton Hill, here in London, United Kingdom and do not get worried about any documents, an agency here in the UK will secure your papers and apply for visa on your behalf in the UK Home Office here in United Kingdom and when the visa is ready the UK Embassy in your country will call on you, so that they can endorse the visa on your original passport. Just follow any instructions I give you because it will make things a reality.. I don't play with my kids Brieanna and Hayleigh, at all because they are the apples of my eyes, I worked because of them and i can pay so much on them. My decision is that I will make 70% of your travel expense while you make 30% to reach here in United Kingdom and i shall be responsible for refund of every expenses made by you immediately you get here because why I said so is that i have paid for 2 (Nanny) in the past months which they did not come to my home but went to somewhere else and that is why i vowed that any (Nanny,)that i will employ, will make 30% expenses by herself ,just for me to be sure that you will not do like the past (Nanny)and you are ready to work with my family here in UK because i don't want someone who don't care about kids because i cherish my kids a lot. Don’t worry about the United Kingdom, it’s a nice place to stay and which i hope you will enjoy staying here with my family and you will have the access to internet Infect i have a personal PC at home for myself but my kids usually play games on their own PC, i will get you a computer to start using for your own use,immediatelly you arrive at my house.
The duties I'm looking for are as follows:

1 the children in the morning and get them off to
school (Collect my 2KIDS of ages 6yrs and 8yrs old from school at 3.50pm.)

2music practice and fun activities or take children to
after school activities...

3-Weekends and Bank holidays would be free that there will not be much duties
to carry out.

4-Occasional weekend work would be offered by prior negotiation. We will grant
you a two weeks trip to your home country every six months, to have time with
your own family and be back to resume work at the house.
I normally leave for work at 7.00am and get back at around 4.00pm although some
flexibility.
I am offering a live in position with full board (You eat well in the house!)

1-Separate Toilet and Bathroom.
2-TV, different type of video machines.

You should immediately write and send a copy of your C.V or Resume, and also self Photograph to the UK based agency that will help you procure all necessary legal papers and visa that will make you eligible to work for me in the United Kingdom. My attorney or the agency will also issue a flexible contract agreement for your services which will be for two years once all other legal

I really don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but it's definitely a scam :( There is absolutely no doubt about that.

I can't explain fully right now because I have to log off, but in a few hours I will log back on and explain why.

The writing tells me that the person sending letters to you is African.
The writing from the "traveling agency" is also African. The person who wrote from the "agency" is definitely not British.


But more importantly:
-Any phone number that starts with 44-70 is not actually a UK number. 44-70 numbers are redirect numbers that can be forwarded to phones all over the world. People who actually live in the UK do not have numbers that start with 44-70. Whenever you see one of these numbers, you can know that you are dealing with a scammer.
-Look at the email address for the "agency". They pointed you to a real website (for a company that could not get you a UK visa, by the way)--but they are not actually connected to the website. If they were, the email address they gave you would end with @genesisprofessionals.co.uk . Instead, they have opened a free gmail address that looks similar to the site to make you think they are connected with that website.
-An agency cannot get a visa for you. Immigration specialists can help to guide you on completing the forms, but they cannot get your visa for you. You have to physically sign forms, and you have to show up at the British Embassy in your country.
-UK only allows citizens of specific countries to get au pair visas. Ukraine is not one of those countries.

Just don't be deceived by these extravagant offers, they always turn out to be a hoax..

This scammer is still contacting people who are registered on au pair websites.

From: Mary Lee <[email protected]>
Subject: Hello!!

I am Mary Lee,a worker with inwent intl company for Fifteen years.Just relocated to London,Uk some days ago.I have Three kids and am seeking for the services of a Special Nanny/housekeeper/ outside the United Kingdom to come and work for me in the U.K.

The sender of these scam mails is not living in the UK; the emails are sent from Nigeria, as shown by the IP addresses, eg 41.138.190.199 - Lagos, Nigeria.

In addition to Dotti's information above, that only citizens of very few countries can obtain a visa to be an au pair in the UK, please also be aware that it is impossible for non-Europeans to obtain an visa to be a Nanny or Housekeeper in the UK, unless they have already been working for the family for a minimum of one year in another country. You can confirm this here:

http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visas ... igibility/

For information regarding visas to be an au pair in the UK, please see here:

http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visas ... ityscheme/

If you also click on 'Working and conditions' on the left hand side of that webpage, you will be able to confirm that this is the correct visa for au pairs.
