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.

I really Thanks for this information from British Embassy in KL and others comments from people. I am still lucky that I have not yet cheated by this person but as he contact me on facebook then email I found very fishy and I shared with my sister and she searched in Google about this man and found this link where Seng wrote Wed, 24 Oct 2012 21:57 EDT. I think cyber cell should take action against such bad persons who are playing with innocent women's emotions on internet.
I am coping and pasting his mails, .you can find more from his mails below.

Thank you so much again,

Dearest,

How are you today and how is work and every other thing moving on with you over there ?

What is your programs this weekend? It's still very early here, I just wake up now to reply your mail knowing that you must be worried to hear from me, Thank you so much for always getting in touch, I am usually busy with work but deep in my heart, I think of you always, but you need to write some article about your self always to me that will help me to keep knowing you better so that it will enable us to achieve our so called dreams.

Since you came into my life, I've been so happy. The fact that we're a thousand miles apart is not a matter at all because you are always in my heart. I cannot tell you how good your interest about us make me feel, but sometimes when I open your mail to read, I absolutely can not find anything, just " hi Alfred " that made me feel that you think of me but don't have the clue of what to say.

Perhaps you can tell me how things is moving on with you and what you have done last week and this week, who approached you and what you would love to eat on Weekends, and places you like to visit.. and so forth..

I am every day hoping to read valuable articles from you.. I hope you will understand what I mean.
I'll be going out later in the day with my clients to have good conversation about my contract with him and have good meal too..and later will be going to play gulf with my colleague, most weekends I do nothing but to take care of my self.

Next month, I will be going to Malaysia regarding my project with chevron oil and gas there..
So give me gist my dear,., stop sending empty messages for me..

I miss you dearly,

Alfred

Hilton Hotel is fake job scam
@ C.Srinivas
As soon as they ask you to contact a "lawyer" and ask you for money for a visa that tells you right there its a scam! You don't need a lawyer to get a visa. You get a visa yourself and they only cost maybe $100, but no US hotel is going to hire a worker in India when there are plenty of American workers who don't need visas! It's not that complicated! I have yet to see one real non-scam job in any of these embassy forums. They are all scams, every one of them!
