Hello,

I Just received your mail showing interest concerning the Nanny Job Offer i sent to you due to good reasons. I have to say that am truly impressed with your mail and that of your qualification because what i need in my family is a good lady to take care of my Kids and always make them happy. But i do intend reading Copies of your relevant Certificate of Qualification because it will be needed at the time of your Processing. My Family is a very Dedicated Catholic and very law abiding. As you must have read in the Job i posted and also my mail concerning my late beloved wife Mrs Margaret Fedinand, She died and left me alone with 2 wonderful kids, Peter and Mary, honestly they are truly a God's gifts to my life. But recently my work as a Building Construction Engineer have been draining so much of my time that am not able to look after my Kids which is becoming a heartache to me. So that is my reason of seeking out for a good Nanny to look after my lovely kids, i had a heart2heart talk with my kids and they are really interested in having a lady to take care of them. I believe you can be a good Nanny to my Kids.

So i will go straight to the point because your first impression really gave me a heart warming satisfaction and i really believe deep down that you are the material that is needed in my Christian home. Also as i made clear in the Job Offer i posted, I will solemnly be responsible for everything concerning your traveling and Legal Entry into the UK except that of your UK Working Permit.

The UK Labor Market made it clear that all International Job applicants intending to commence work in the UK will personally be making Payment for the processing of their UK Working Permit to a Legal UK Immigration Lawyer who will be submitting their UK Working Permit on the behalf of the International applicants. The UK Labor Market equally made it clear that the UK Working Permit application will ONLY be Processed with the name that appears on the Payment Slip attached with the UK Working Permit Application Form of the applicant. I went to do the inquiries and i was told that the fee for the processing is just 250 Pounds.

Every other thing concerning your Legal Entry into the UK will be catered for by me because you have been accepted as a family of mine, because someone who will be taking care of my Kids while am not at Home is like a mother which they no longer have and that person is equally included as a Family of mine. Your traveling expenses ranging from Flight tickets, Legal traveling papers, UK Border Clearance Certificate, Proof of Accommodation, Proof of Financial capability, Immigration Clearance, Sponsorship account, Residence Permit, BTA, Visa Assistance, Weekly Allowances and every other thing that you will be needed to guarantee that you will have a successful and Legal Entry into the United Kingdom.

So i will be going to the Central London Community Law Centre to make a Payment so that i can collect the Employment Contract Agreement Form that i will be sending to you to complete once you get back to me stating serious interest in coming to the UK as my Nanny before the 3rd week of February, 2012 and also good willingness to make the Payment of 250 Pounds to the Legal UK Immigration Lawyer that i will be directing you to once your document processing reaches the stage of processing for your UK Working Permit. I do expect your reply in due course.


Warm Regards,

Mr Gregory

Yes, this is a scam. If you are a European citizen, you can find information about working in the UK here:

http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/eucitizens/

There is additional information for Bulgarian and Romanian citizens here:

http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/eucit ... a-romania/

If you are not European, you will be unable to obtain a visa to be a nanny (domestic worker) in the UK unless you have already been working for the employer for at least one year in another country. You can confirm this here:

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

Citizens of a few non-European countries may be able to obtain a visa to be an au pair through the Youth Mobility Scheme. The participating countries are listed here:

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

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

Please could you post the email address of this scammer? Many au pairs google the email addresses of host families who have contacted them, and if the email address of this scammer is posted here, then other au pairs will be able to be warned that it is a scam.
