UK Border Agency and department of immigration allows applicant to be
represented and filed for by Accredited migration consultant company

all necessary employment documents that will facilitate this,including
my bank statements and affidavit of support as your employer.She told
me that the immigration law on employing a foreign aupair will only
allow an initial contract period of one year.This means that i shall
ask my lawyer to draft up an employment contract of one year which is
renewable after the expiration of the initial contract period.The
embassy in your country shall issue you a one year work visa when the
documents are processed and sent to you in.
The UK Home Office authorized migration consultant company that was
recommended by the staff is migration expert inc.I can remember
now,that they were responsible for the processing of the work visa
of my former nanny. To help process all
your work visa documents through the UK Home Office.The email address

Thanks for replying my message and Hope you are having a great weekend over there, Well I am new here and since i joined I have not been active, As a matter of fact I came in contact with your profile while I was searching for a friend who fortunately has the same last name as you, We were close friends and classmates back in the days and he relocated back to Germany many years ago after studies, well never mind about all that for now.. Your photo really caught my attention because you look so beautiful out here and I did like to get to know you and be close friends and more.

I value honesty and trust. That's what I'm everything and if you do not, you have nothing. I think it's important to understand and accept the strengths and weaknesses of others. It is important to have the passion, romance, physical attraction, a playful attitude, with lots of laughter I firmly believe all that.

I have strong family values and morals and also with my teenage understandable daughter who is 8yrs. the family is most precious and unique that I have now,which is my only daughter

Born and raised in Greece But live in Nevada am in my 50yrs now, june 28, I worked as a supervisor at a construction company in Greece, which was my first job. i retired on the job 4 years ago it was shortly after the death of my family is a car accident, I am the only child of my family and move to the loss of my mother and my wife is that the same accident . left with my daughter and granddad who she stays with for the now

I'm very involved, volunteers, and I deal with all types of art produced works such as sculptures, carvings and other types of paints.and also a free lancer contractor and I'm a business man that deals on wholesale, retails, important and exportation of industrial heavy machines,in I honor my commitments, enjoy being a devoted father, or even a family man I find someone who appreciates quality and i think i find that in you though i barely know you but i understand the fact that relationship is like a flower we watch it grow.

went to the UK 4 years ago and that was when I started the business of buying and selling art, as I have always loved and the work of my father, my mother was a U.S. Greece and my father, my late wife was from Chicago, also in the state. I took charge of him, though in a different way ..
I love to laugh very often, because it is one thing that keeps me going, I do not smoke, but do not drink, I'm a social drinker, but never got drunk, I love living a simple life and am very open and flexible to situations, my favorite food is mostly fried rice with fried chicken, I also love vegetarian. love swimming with my daughter when am in Texas

I do have my office and ware house here in my city. I am a humble and self-confident man; I like self-confident persons, honest and sincere. I like all colors but my favorite is Blue.since am single for long now with my only daughter victory Now searching for a woman who is caring,loving,understanding, have a good sense of humor and ready to settle down with me.If u think we are on the same page then kindly let me know because am really interested in you,am happy you good in English speaking would love to have your cell if possible to at least hear from you if possible, i have always pray for these days



after several conversations he started asking for money to be wired to him in India, New Delhi, because he needed to pay for hotel fees. 800usd. then he faked his daughters car accident and asked me for 3,000usd so she could get emergency services at the hospital. He was now claiming he lived in Texas, but in the UK and then India for business. When I wouldn't send him anything for his daughter he then asked for 100 dollars so he could see a doctor. Still didn't send him anything. Then he asked for 15,000usd so he could buy a nice house for us and move him and his daughter to my town. he needed it to pay for shipping costs of raw materials on which he had invested everything he owned. (wouldn't an experienced business man have factored in shipping costs?) So I broke contact with him.

I found another profile on FB with the same basic information. a university, interested in both men and women, widowed, one daughter, but with different pictures, and that profile is listed here at Scamwarners too, only with a different name.

I have strong family values and morals and love my daughter who is 8years.she is the most precious and only family i have now she is 8years of age, Should we have a relationship and you ever have the opportunity to meet her she will steal your heart away, before I can! I am very involved, volunteer & I deal on all kind of Arts and Craft made works, i have a gallery here in Engand which i manage alone. I honor my commitments, enjoy being a devoted father or even a family man should I find a person who appreciates this quality.
I was bourn and raised in greece in the year 1961, aprial27, i worked as a supervisor in a construction company there in greece, that was my first job. i got retired in that job 6 years ago that was shortly after the death of my father, i was the only child of my family and happen to lost my mother very early in life, i got married very late in life, just because my job would not let me do it as i was always moving from place to place, i ended up becoming a married man at the age of 30, at this time, i was no longer travelling, we got our only child (Tracy) after 6 years of marriage, and not too long from there, i got retired, our marriage lasted for 14 years before death did it's worst to me.
I moved over to the uk 6 years ago and that was when i went into Arts And Craft as i have always loved and it was my father's job,,, My mom was from U.S amd my father from Greece, my late wife was from chicago, also in the state, but my dad have to move over to the uk shorlty after the death of my mom, there he did his work as a Sculptur, which i took over from him even if in a different way, i do love to laugh very ofen as it is one thing that keep me going on, i don't smoke but do drink, but never got drunk, i love to live a simple life and i am very open and flexible to situations, my most favourite meal is spaghetty with fried chicken, i also love vegetarian and Drink coffee often, i really do not know what more to tell you, but if you can ask me, i will be very happy to let you know......i hope to hear from you again soon, untill then, thanks and have the best of time...



I believe these are the same men, or at least the same scam, because the letter and things said are so identical. including being born and raised in greece and his wife being from chicago and the 8 year old daughter.

Sam told me his daughters name was Victory, but when I asked how she got such an unusual name, he didn't answer.

When I asked him to send me a picture of his chest this is what he sent.

his email is [email protected]
