First of all, I must apology To Whom It May Concern. Ok, I have no right to put your name here, and don’t worry its going to be top confidentially.

I received a pm this morning and I couldn’t imagine if he is real, or he did this on his purpose. I do appreciate & sorry for his big lost but skeptical of what his point here, since his incentive offers is so attractive. 

I calculate his offer GBP 850 per week is 850X@ THB 48 = 40,800X 4 = 163,200/month. Plus monthly shopping allowances and more…… Wow!!! I will be rich!!!

I wondering how many girls received this pm. If it’s a psychologically trick to lure money or what ever, it would never work with me. Since I heard a lot from my friends losing their money to those guys who claimed they are English gentlemen from UK.

Nothing but I just wanted to warn girls here even if some of you already know that this kind of incentive offer can cause your money losing. One of my friends even no active on TF since she lost her money to an English guy who later turnout to be a Nigerian or someone in South Africa.

I felt that I’ve received pms from strangers which I don’t know who they are these days, and probably he may/might know me in some level. Perhaps they want to try me. Or probably I’m too psyco…lol…

Karnie just posted it on Facebook too.

Well, he picked the best people, huh?

Intereting I ever got this before...well nothing in this world can get easy job good paid...

naw,I didn't get this msg,sounds like a spam and I can get up set easily with this kind of msg. My friends from university loved to forward their stupid emails which are stupid to open and bear to read it and so annoying as I had to waste my time to delete them from my box.One day i was out of tolerance,I replied them,ask them to stop send this to me and also explained how annoying ther were.anyway I know some msgs are usefull to read.

LOL Exactly the same PM I have received this morning too. I replied him a bit nice though as I want him to answer my questions back which he did. Very funny to me. )))

Soda..£850 per week for a baby sitter? You are right to be very careful with this. These things need a lot of checking, if you are going to leave home, and work in a foreign country, away from friends and family.

I'm not saying this anything like this, but many girls take up these offers of highly paid jobs in the west, only to find that they are forced into prostitution.

There is a lot of human trafficking going on in the west. There are stories of women coming to the west, expecting to take up these promised jobs, as housemaids, cooks etc., then being held captive, and forced to work long hours in seedy brothels.

Just "google" it, and you will see how prevalent it is.

Read the post I just made in the forum thread, WTF....news hot off the press, of a work scam that was going on in the USA for workers from Thailand, promised big money.

google, then name and shame these bastards..would love to see some of them 419ers nakedly put in the stocks or pilloried on the market place. Free foul tomatoes, rotten cabbage and a free beer for every bulls eye..then tar and feather and send home to Nigeria..I bet that would help fight them scammers..

Never trust anyone named "X" lol

But as funkyhouse said, 850gbp a week for a nanny should throw up an instant red flag.

these scams are used all the time to find women for in the prostitution...

It's a scam. I think you will find that if you pursue this offer, the guy will end up asking YOU to lend /pay him some money first - and after he gets your money, there will be no job for you.

Also, this is most likely a message from someone in Nigeria rather than from the UK. The English is not that of a native speaker. (That being said, nowadays native speakers can't really write that well!)

Conclusion: Whatever you do, don't send this guy any money when he asks for it.

And if, after this warning, you STILL want to send your money to someone, then just send it to me!

He's also on tagged.com lol

I am pretty sure that this is a scam. Spammers like this prey on everyone. I wish I had a baht for everytime I got an e-mail telling me that my long lost relative from africa died recently and if I did whatever they said I would collect the money. Normally I just delete them and move on, but in this case Thailand friends is protected. So this is something the administrator should know about. I myself have a business here that would do good if I spammed the people on this site, but I try to refrain from doing it. Only sending stuff to people who ask for it. That means it would be considered solicited and this in turn not spam. I would notify the administrator and have them watch for incedents of spam also this post is a good start, by spreading the word, so perhaps someone will not fall prey to this person.

Soda make sure you get an open round trip ticket. Check it out very carefully. Make him send you his address, and some past electical bills and such. Check out his home on Willows. Ask for several references from him that you can check on by telephone. Check out this and much more. There is not a job glut in BK and i am sure he could find a sweet young thing there that needs some money. Be very careful as we care about you.
