Complaint >> Posted: Apr 01 '06 by Chantal in Minnesota, United States |
| I believe this family is a scame. WATCH OUT!!! In only the third e-mail they sent me they said they were ready to "take me in". They had not answered my questions, and I knew nothing about them. They know very little about me. Then they wanted to send me a bunch of money and wanted me to take out all but $500.00 and send it to their son in West Africa where he is going to school. They had just met me, why in the world would they trust me to do that for them?? Their e-mails were unclear and confusing at times. (I still have them, if you want me to send them to you.) I also have a friend with a profile on here and she got the same e-mail from the family a few weeks ago (she hasn't filed against them yet, but I am going to ask her to). They also told her in that e-mail that they were on vacation. In the one they sent me they were still on vacation and this was a few weeks later. They also used two different names, one was Michale N Brumbelow and one was Richard D.Morgan. I have no idea what is going on, but girls please be very careful!!!! |

same thing here look at what i've received!:
Good Day,
I am James Fred 40, a Shipper/ businessman.My wife Anne is 36, a model / architect / interior designer / businesswoman / real estate professional. We haven't got lots of time for our daughter Tracy,right now she is on a trip to Africa Nigeria to study the history of Art and she will be back on may 3rd.I found your ads on greataupair and the starting date is may 5.(gucci and bella -- the sweetest dogs that you will ever meet), and we have tons of stuff to do. For example, anne just worked from 6am to 7pm, came home, and worked from 7:30pm to 8:30pm closing a mortgage for another new house we just bought down the road. From 8:30pm to 11pm, she has been researching studio equipment to build his new shop. As for me i will be travelling to germany for my friends wedding and i will not be back till may 2nd because i am planning to have a new company overthere.We have remodeling to do right away with this new house, and there will be tons of contractors in there the first few months. We will need someone to run the house (it is quite big) and manage the overall day-to-day business of things that go on in our life. You will have your own private wing of the house. Your own access to the screened-in outdoor kitchen/bar and jacuzzi. A 10,000 gallon pool awaits you as well! This is definitely a work hard, play hard environment. Please do not apply if you are not self-motivated or goal-oriented. If we like your organizational skills and think you have talent, we will extend an offer to interview with us in one of our luxury homes in Quebec. NOW THE FUN STUFF!: You will be paid $200 / wk + rent ($250 / wk) + food ($150 / wk) + car ($75 / wk) + gas ($50 / wk) + cell ($45 / mth) = $2945 / month. That is essentially a yearly salary of over 31,000, just for being our assistant (30 hours a week = $24 / hr). Your weekends are off, and of course, you would have to legally be on the F-1 student visa if you are not a U.S. citizen (so the $200 / wk cash would have to be used towards school + books. You cannot legally be paid a salary on the F-1 student visa. We "sponsor" your studying). We will always make sure you have fun!! If you are out of state your flight ticket will be taken care of by us.
My company will be in charge of your salary because i will be travelling soon and i have discussef this with them and they will be mailing you a check for $6000.00,when you have receive the check you cash it and deduct one month salary which is $2945 and you will help me send the excess amount of $3055.00 via western union to my daughter Art teacher in Africa so that he can arrange for her return ticket.I will
need you to get back to me with below information.
Your Full Name to make the check payable to-------------------
Address to mail the check to via UPS--------------------------
Cell Phone Number----------------------------
Home Phone Number-----------------------------
Our Home Address--15 des Grisons, Quebec, QC, G1R 4M6
We can't wait to meet you and hope that you like the good life!
Love, James &Fred (and Gucci and Bella)
