Hello kaladhar, and welcome to ScamWarners. Thank you for posting this scam.

Yes, the photograph which the scammer sent to you will not be his real photo. Scammers usualy download photographs which they find on Facebook, MySpace, people's personal websites, modelling sites, etc, and then pretend that these are their own photographs. The real people in the photographs are not connected to the scam, and are unlikely to realise that their photos are being used in this way.

The telephone numbers, like all phone numbers which begin with +4470, are not normal UK numbers; they are 'redirect' numbers, which redirect all calls to a mobile phone almost anywhere in the world. They are very much used by au pair scammers who are living in Nigeria.

hey!!!

wtf!!

i got the same email exactly as what you have posted :=)
thanks to you I have found bout this earlier and have not been fooled :bowdown: :beer:
you know, he even sent me a copy of the contract of agreement and employment certificate :roll:

by the way,, here's the sample of his letter sent to me..

Dear Applicant,

Thanks for your prompt reply,

First, Russell Moll Williston Family is pleased to offer you an opportunity to work for the family as an Au pair/Teacher.

Secondly, we have received your signed contract agreement sent to us as a sign of acceptance to the family offer. You will have to send a copy to Royal Courts of Justice Advisers immediately for swearing of your Affidavit of Good Moral Character through the Royal Courts Of Justice here stating that you are eligible to meet the standards of good character for this caretaker position and also assuring the family that once you receive Visa, Work/Residence permit and flight ticket including your advance first month salary of GBP 4,200.00 that you’re going to join your duties as agreed.

Below are the contact information of Royal Courts of Justice Advisers whom you are to contact for assistance on procuring your Affidavit of Good Moral Character which you are to present to the family on or before 1st day of November 2011,as a sign of readiness to work for the family:

Name of Solicitor: Rob Stall (Esq)
Designation: Senior Advocate
Office Address: 75 Mill Street Caerleon Newport,
Gwent NP18 1BW, UK.
Phone: +44701113 6704 , +44 702 405 1195
E-mail: [email protected]

Thirdly,I want to inform you that it is not the family's responsibility to obtain an Affidavit of Good Moral Character for any of our employee or take care of any cost that may arise on the process.

Affidavit of Good Moral Character is requested by the family due to the bad experience we had last from one Ms.Jessica Bricks who claims to be an Au pair/Teacher and after she received her visa, first month salary and relocation benefits from the family disappears into thin air and could not be reached.

On this reason the family lawyer advised that any Au pair/Teacher being employed by Russell Moll Williston Family’ MUST’ obtain and present to the Family an Affidavit of Good Moral Character through the Royal Courts Of Justice here in Wales showing that once the said employee receives Visa,Work/Residence permit and Flight Ticket including advance first month salary from the family ,that the employee is going to join his /her duties as agreed thus making it possible for the family to trace and apprehend any defaulter in other words curtailing the loss that may arise from unscrupulous candidate.

On confirmation of your Affidavit of Good Moral Character which shows your readiness to work for the family on or before your commencement date Russell Moll Williston Family will provide you a free Visa, Work/Residence permit and also shall pay into your account which you shall provide before embarking on trip, your one (1) month salary, flight ticket fare, relocation benefits and as well reimburse you the amount spent on the procurement of your Affidavit as to enable you take care of your financial needs before joining the family here in Wales.

We shall need the relevant pages of your international passports, two passport size photos (scan copies) for the processing of your Visa, work /residence permit papers, then as soon as you traveling papers are ready, we shall dispatch the same to your contact address and shall inform you when to go to the UK High Commission in your location for the issuance/stamping in your Original international passport without any other interview or charges.

Lastly, like I informed you earlier you can come along with your family or any member of your family as getting a job here won't be a problem,also I will be providing you with a family accommodation here in my home. You are expected to start your job on the 30th day of November 2011, but you must have to furnish my family with a copy of your Affidavit of Good Moral Character on or before the 1st day of November 2011 as a sign of readiness to join your duties.

Attached are my family pictures .

Thanks for your understanding and co-operation and we look forward to welcoming you.

Hi guys,

what a surprise because I have to say you are not the only ones who got that kind of silly and stupid email. I just got one yesterday and surprise, surprise, it's from the same person. When I was reading the mail ( you will find it below) I literally had to laugh because since when will a nanny/au pair/teacher earn 4200 pounds a month (some people which are working in the office will not even get it), have her own apartment, a car and, will get a part time job in a company. The reason why I had to :laugh-s: is because I am a Marine Offshore Logistic Manager and someone like this moron has the guts to send me that kind of stupid thing. Oh yes, one more thing, since when do 3 year old kids already need to do their homework :?: :?: :?:

Anyway, here the lovely email which I got from that person:
