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.

» Can I visit the United Kingdom without a visa?

Miller Construction and Woodberry Hotel are both fake job scams
Please read carefully because this applies to every job offer you receive!No real company hires you without an in person, face to face interview. An email or telephone interview is always the sign of a scam! No real company charges any money for a job even for a visa or work permit! If they want you to pay and say they will refund the costs, you will just send money to a fake embassy official, travel agency or lawyer who is a really a scammer! Read: www.scam-job-emails.tk No real company uses a free email address. Read: www.scam-email-addresses.tk No real visa agent ever requests you wire money into any bank account or by Western Union or Money Gram. Read: www.never-wire-money-to-strangers.tk
No real company uses a telephone number that begins with +44 70, +44 871, +44 870, +44 844, or +44 845. Those are forwarding numbers which are not in the UK. Read: www.scam-telephone-numbers.tk There are no exceptions! Don't let a scammers convince you otherwise! Always "Google" all telephone numbers, email addresses and websites in any job offer to see if it has already been posted as a scam!

Passport renewal fees in India
I wonder if you could send me the following information.

a.) Renewal Fees including Postal/Courier Charges for the renewal of my (adult) 32 page British Passport in Indian Rupees.

b.) Name of payee (in whose name I need to make the bank draft/pay order)

I am presently residing in Lucknow and my bank does not provide debit card facility and I do not have a credit card. I tried searching on the internet but could not locate a site that would let me know the above details. If you could direct me to the site where i can find the relevant information, specially regarding the payment procedure in Indian Rupees at your New Delhi office, I would be highly obliged.

Thanking You.

All Hotel job offers are fake. No real hotel is going to be able to get a visa for an unskilled worker in India to come to Canada or the UK! There are plenty of workers already in those country for those jobs!

All house supervisor, house keeping, house cleaning, nanny jobs, private nurse, etc. jobs from Canada and UK are scams. No stranger in another country is going to hire a stranger in India who he can't see, and pay to fly them to their home and trust them with their family. It doesn't make sense. They could just hire someone in their own country who they know or could interview!
