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.

MR. ADAM CULLEN IN UK
I was offered also a job to work as a CAREGIVER to work for MR. ADAM CULLEN just like with camille2009 who recently posted her query in your website few weeks ago (still posted). Anyway, I received an email from this guy and the offer is really good which is very surprising. it is the same info what camille2009 is asking. the only difference is that she is almost ready to close the deal and ready to pay for the document. In my case, he is asking me questions before i contact the Sta Travel Agency.. I really sense that this is a scam. Kindly, help me and camille2009 if this is really all legal - Adam Cullen's from Southhampton, UK as well the Sta Travel Agency. My email address is ohbreigh@yahoo.com Thank you so much!

He is not raymond wright He is using an identity
Somebody texting me yesterday he's name appearing RAYMND WRIGHT looking for caregiver or nanny with his 2 sons named: Melvin 5 years old and Russ 3 years old with this number +447587328731. He is using other identity to ask processing fee to certain individuals. We try and call him but his voice is not in british accent but an indian national. We will try to locate his location and file cases on this certain individual. Please do not believe on what he said on text or even in emails. They were in group an indian national who are studying in London and using other pictures of british nationals. Beware of this recent scam. Hope the british governemnt will make evaluation on this recent activities of some other allien who is using other name. Thank you
