Subject: We are looking for an Nanny/Au pair for Samantha

My wife and I are proud parents of a 6years old daughter. We work in the morning and would need an Au pair/Nanny for the morning. We are a cheerful, friendly family in Manchester, UK. My daughter(Samantha) is in grade one in school

Samantha, likes playing with toy trains, paints, garden swing, enjoys playing with Lego, art, reading comics, riding around her bicycle

DESCRIPTION OF TASKS:

We are looking for someone to get my daughter up ready in the morning, prepare and clear up the family breakfast at about 7.30am, make the beds, and take Samantha to school, which is about a 2km walk away. The Au pair/ Nanny would then need to pick her up at 1.00 and look after her until we get home. We might ask you to babysit 1-2 evenings a week. We have a really great cleaner, so there wouldn't be any heavy housework, a bit of light cleaning and laundry. There would be plenty of free time in the day to go to language school, and there are a lot of good ones in the area.

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS:

The Au pair/Nanny would have His/ Her own room, which is huge, and has TV/DVD/Video/Wi-Fi. There is wireless internet in the house. Also 2 weeks are paid holiday during Christmas/New Year plus another 2 weeks during the year. We are looking for someone with a good sense of humor. If you love kids and could help us provide a loving environment combining routine and fun for our only daughter, then we would like to welcome you to our family as a friend and as part of our family. Housework is not an important part of the Au pair/Nanny job, being part of our family and helping our daughter develop and learn is the main thing. We are really flexible.

WORKING HOURS:

5hours daily, Mon-Thurs. Weekends and Fridays are off days

BENEFITS:

We will be paying you 500pounds per week. A pocket money of 50pounds every weekends.


Regards,

Mr Peter Burls

Hi trinity14,

Yes it is a scam.

The telephone number that is given is an 070 redirect number, which can be redirected anywhere in the world.

Also the only way that you can get Visas, UK Insurance Number & UK tax clearance certificate is through the relevant Authority, who would write using a .gov.uk email address and not a london.com email address, which is just a free email address.

Alan

ok, thanks!
should I tell them that I know it is a scam? or what should I do now?

[AlanJones]

No don't tell him, just ignore his emails, he will stop sending them when he knows he's not going to get any money out of you.

Thanks for your help!

These are some of the stolen photographs sent by the scammer calling himself Peter Burls, who pretends that they are photos of his own family.

Here are some emails from the fake Transworld Visas. They were not sent from the UK; they were sent from Nigeria, as proven by the IP address: 41.206.12.42 - Lagos, Nigeria. The telephone number, like all telephone numbers which begin +4470, is not a normal UK number; it is a redirect number, redirecting all calls to a mobile phone. This number will redirect calls to the scammer's mobile phone in Nigeria.
