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.

Comfort Inn hotel, north stafford hotel.and HOTEL RAMADA are all fake job scams!
Comfort Inn hotel, north stafford hotel.and HOTEL RAMADA are all fake job scams! Read www.scam-job-emails.tk All Hotel job offers to persons in countries such as India are fake. No real hotel is going to be able to get a visa for an unskilled worker in a faraway country to come to Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia or the United States! There are plenty of workers already in those countries for those jobs and you cannot get a visa to do unskilled labor.

Iam Allen from Uganda some Hotel known as Comfort Inn hotel Offered me an Online Interview and later they gave me an Appointment letter informing me that i had passed the interview and they had offered me a job to go and work from U.K and they told me to pay $300 so that the British High Commission Consulate could process my Visa papers.I asked them can't the British high Commission process my Visa Documents from Uganda, they told me that it can't be possible coz i have to send the money which is being needed to the British High Commission Consulate in India by names of James Bevan. So i would like to know is this a scam or it's areal job offer?
