Here is another scam letter sent to us from out on the Web. The care provider who forwarded this did not say how or through what online service this scammer contacted her.
Hello,
My name is Dr. Makanaki I have a little daughter, Carol. She is just turned 3 yrs old on Dec. 31st. she’s quite the handful. She has been off of the bottle for a year now, so she drinks from a snippy cup. She eats all normal foods. She is not potty trained yet, but I’m going to start that soon. I am looking for experienced nanny to be looking after her from Monday to Friday.
I live at Florida and I wouldn’t mind driving her down to your place Everyday (9 am) and also pick him up myself at evening 7pm I would be willing to pay $10/hour (From 9am to 7pm is 10hrs, that means the amount per day is $100) if there was light house work included. References and experience are a plus!
Presently, I and my Wife are not in the state, we went on vacation since last year December, so we will be arriving back to the state next week. I also need your assistances; I will like to pay you in-advance for 1 week which is $500.
I will contact my Boss to issue a Check in your name and send it to you, the amount that will be issued and send is $2,750. It’s my Bonus for the new contract that was won by my Boss. But the check is going to be U.S Check, which takes a long time to cash here in London . so I will like you to accept it, deduct $500 for advance Deposit for your service, and send the remaining balance to me or my Traveling Agent, because its for my Flight ticket and Bills.
I will need your Full Details to issue the payment, such as:
FULL NAME:
ADDRESS:
CITY:
STATE:
ZIP CODE:
TELEPHONE:
CELL PHONE:
Immediately you forward the payment details, I will call you and I will send your Full name and address to my Boss and he will issue the check and send it to you, which means you will receive the check latest by next week.

We live a very simple life and we have a big apartment with 5 rooms, though its just three of us in the house. I hope you can join us on a trip someday as our last nanny did. The payment is $2000(two thousand US dollars)per month.

You don’t have to put money out of your pocket all you have to do is have packages shipped to your house and do my shopping. You are allowed to open up the packages to reveal its content. The content of the packages are computer and electronics and clothings. All expenses and taxes will be covered by me. You will work between 15 and 20hrs a month. How much will you charge per month?
