They are now using under the name of John Westwood, wife Cynthia and son Damian.

I was surprised coz I almost believe and almost gonna send them the so called contract with my signature. Everything are the same, the address of the family, the address of the Border Agency, the emails, the offers, just difference are the amount of salary which mine is GBP 2,500 per month plus GBP 350 weekly allowances. I just started to doubt coz I noticed that the signature which is signed under Moris Keith ( i think he's playing a role as from the agency) and John Westwood (which should be my employer) are not handwritten... it was edited and pasted under different name (ofcourse I can read it clearly, Somebody's surname is Bacon and another is Dan Duncan)

Pictures are also attached, and I feel sorry with this sweet looking family who's been used for such a scam.
