Weekends are your off days, so you can use the opportunity to explore and tour the city. So we require you put in your best.

Same thing happened to me last night, the thing is that I received lots of e mails from all this people that are in fact scams.

It is a scam! I got exactly the same messages from [email protected] mail address and provided a skype id too as alfredbaines01. Beware of this scammer!
