Scams offering fake Au Pair positions
by ruiaini Mon Aug 22, 2011 11:57 pm
We are a family looking for a live in au-pair to come and join our family for 2011. I have a Dauther and have a gorgeous large house in Scotland Uk,we are a British family.I need a new nanny urgently because my present nanny will be quitting in a few weeks time,You will have your own room and bathroom and work 25 hours a week helping with my Dauther and with the general household chores, Looking for male or female and even couples are permitted to apply for the Nanny position. I need an Au pair/nanny asap, and i mean as really soon as possible.

I am a Sailor, my wife is late,she died a few months ago from cancer. Our kid like super heroes, painting and jumping on their trampoline, Expectations: For you i really want to make you feel welcome and comfortable as if you are in your own home while you are living with us. We hope you will enjoy your time over here both with us and with learning English and making new friends. We live in 45 Kelvinside Drive,North Kelvinside, Glasgow Glasgow, G20 6QD. Miranda is cool, active,lively loves playing games and in general is a typical Dauther!! has her own bedroom on the second floor of the house. Your bedroom is on the first floor. Miranda goes to school from 8:45 to 15:30 every day. About our family Miranda is quite energetic. she is very inquisitive and likes to learn about nature, She's so into Soccer, her favorite footie team is Arsenal FC and she loves to swim then run around, climb trees and play outdoors. she is quite sweet and sensitive. She is also very strong-willed and if she wants something she will present many reasons about why she feels she should be able to do it. Likewise, when she has done something wrong she will often give many reasons/excuses why it happened. She's not an angel and can be very naughty when she wants something.

I have an apartment room for anyone that will be taking care of my kid in my house and i will be abls to pay you 350 GBP per week, Your responsibility in my house is just to take good care of my kid cook for her hope you know how to cook?, you will also be taking her out for shopping and will be leading her to the school, the school just about 5km to the house. I've arranged a private room,bathroom,toilet for you and if you wish to be having a free period from 5pm to 7pm is accepted by me. Please only reply if you are truly serious about this job and ready to comply with my policy, We want to employ you for just 12 months only.

Do you have a valid UK visa? if NO i will direct you to an Attorney that will help you secure your visa down here within 15 working days so that it will be more easier and faster for you to arrive for the job.his service is very fast,secure and affordable,Then please be aware that any Would-Be Nanny will have to shoulder a certain percentage of her relocation costs, because i just wasted the last 6weeks trying to help shoulder all the cost only for the nanny never to show up at the appointed time and I'll not entertain any unnecessary delays.



Hope to hear from you asap.
Mr Martins.
