NotesBeware of emailed job offers for childcare and other similar positions in the UK. These are all frauds.

• Since November 2008, no visas are granted for household workers from outside Europe. Work visas are only granted for highly-skilled positions, most of which require university degrees.

• No legitimate employment agency in the UK requires you to pay them any money. All fees would be paid by the employer.

• No legitimate employment agency in the UK uses a free email address from Yahoo, Gmail, or similar services.

• No legitimate employment agency in the UK uses a telephone number that begins with +4470 (070). These are non-geographic numbers available to anyone in the world.

• No legitimate business requests payment via Western Union.

are these really legitimate and existing agencies?
I applied for store assistant thru bestjobsalary.com. The agency that replied me is britain-vacancy.com and refer me to a registered agency (eudocservices@gmail.com) who makes the 4 important documents such as standard europass,work permission application form, job application letter and the european union work office number. After a series of email conversation, i have to pay for 33 euro for the preparation,so, I did. Now again ,the are asking me to send these 4 requirements to the employer,since that I do not know my employer yet, they want me to send back to the eudocservices to arrange a courier for me..now, I think there will be a charge.. Please help me find if are these
really legitimate and existing agencies..
