Subject: Job details and description!!

Hello ,
Thanks for the reply to my job offer and the interest in my family.I would like to see your Curriculum Vitae (CV) for reference and information and a scanned copy of your passport.Truly i need a foreign Nanny as soon as possible and would be offering 850 pounds per week with a weekly pocket money of £120.I know that there are a lot of Nannies in the UK here but its just that i need a Nanny from outside whom the kids can learn something different with in respect to their culture,someone that is caring,loving,motherly carefree and well determined,that can take good care of my kids for me but with the recommendation from you and that is the more reason I may need your services,hopefully you will be my kid's Nanny and do according to your words.I am a major Contract worker,reside in Court field,London and do not get worried about any documents(work Permit and Visa),a travel agency here in the UK will handle that for you as per your visa just scan&send the copy of your international passport and CV through email to them,they will apply for visa on your behalf in the UK Home Office and when the visa is ready the UK Embassy in your country will call on you so that they can endorse the visa on your original passport.If you have any other traveling agency you could also use that.

I love my kids so much and would not toy with them.They are 7 and 9 years respectively.Also the apple of my eyes.I work because of them and am willing to pay any amount to give them the best in the world.You would be needing to settle half of the Visa Procurement yourself while I'll be responsible for the other half and I
ll take care of your ticket fare because I paid for 2 Nannies in the past few months which they did not turn up but went somewhere else after their visa was approved and that is why I vowed that any Nanny that i will employ will make half of expenses by himself/herself.Hope you understand how i mean.I need a very serious person and the job is available right now.Also,i use to have a Nanny that came from Philippines and she spent 2 years with us,but she got married and relocated to the United states,so i need a replacement ASAP.
Your duties are as follow:
1-Supervise breakfast with the children in the morning and get them off to school (Collect my 2KIDS of ages 7yrs and 9yrs old
from school at 3.40pm.).
2-Some Housework/washing/ironing as required on a daily basis
3-Supervise homework, music practice and fun activities or take children to after school activities.
4-Prepare and cook an evening meal for everyone at about 6.30-6.45 Up
to two evenings childminding per week.
5-Weekends and Bank holidays would be free that there will not be much
duties to carry out.

I normally leave for work at 7.00am and get back at around 6.30pm although some flexibility is useful.I am offering a live-in position for two years with full board (we eat well in this house!)and more years as you wish to stay with my family
1-Separate Toilet and Bathroom.
2-TV,different types of video machines.
3-Personal computer already Internet on.
e.t.c for you and i will make sure everything goes on well with you,
with my kids.

Don't worry about the United Kingdom,it's a nice place to stay and i hope you will enjoy staying here with my family and you will have the access to internet, Also i have a personal PC at home for myself but my kids usually play games on their own PC, i will get you a computer to start using for your own use.All expenses made by you will be refunded immediately you get here.If you would be using the travel agency i would be recommending i would email you the contact address.Kindly tell the agent that your writing him the email on my behalf (Mr.Alan Carrick) tell the agent that i asked you to send an email to them and confirm all the process
of your visa and other relevant documents...

Welcome Pat,

I have removed the duplicate of this post to keep all discussions in one thread.

This is a definite scam, and like the scam in your other post, the gmail address and 4470 phone number are obvious indicators that the "travel agency" is fake.

A few other points:
-once again the English is atrocious and typical of an African.
-the pay is way beyond normal nanny pay.
-be suspicious of any employer who offers you a job by email--very few families will hire an au pair outside of an agency, and of those who do, none are going to hire you without extensive research including an interview (at minimum by phone) and reference checks!

To obtain a visa to enter the UK you apply in person at the British Embassy in your own country or their visa application representative there. Scans of your passport and other documents will not be acceptable and nothing can be done with them in the UK, and a UK travel agent cannot obtain a visa for you.

Every country operates the same way. When I used to visit Nepal I had to apply to the Nepali Embassy in London myself.

The scammer only wants to make you think that paying money to him will get you a visa, but he can't do it, even if he wanted to, and there is no job. The details he has supplied are ridiculous.

He can't do you any harm with the copy documents you have sent him and he only wants them to make it appear he is official.

You're clearly smarter than the scammer, and congratulations on not letting him steal your money. It's disgraceful that thieves attempt to steal money from people looking to find work.

Non-EU citizens should go here to find out about obtaining a visa to work as an au pair in the UK

Whenever payment is requested by Western Union you're dealing with a scammer
