well she sais supposedly that her husband works for Royal Carribbean Cruise and they are all on a little vacation right now and will be back in a month. She said she has a boutique here in NY and a big apartment with 8 bedrooms all to themselves, sounds sugarcoated! Let me see if I find the original ad.. | |

Thank for you that. I was convinced already the first time I read it that it was a scam because I 've heard of people from Camroon or Nigeria sending fake checks, etc. and end up getting all of your information somehow, so ofcourse i questioned her and I would in no way open a new account for a babysitting job, and accept $200 in advance if I did no work. Well anyway I emailed her this just to see what her response was... "Why must I open an account with Wells Fargo bank? Can't he just send the money to my bank account? Or to me? Also when would you like to set up an interview? Oh yea I thought that the job was for the weekends...I think I misread.....Well anyway I would be delighted to babysit little Kathy. I love children!" I said my bank account so see if she would actually say oh yea give me your account number, etc. lol And in the ad I believe it said the job was babysitting on the weekends....I just want to see what her response is and what they intend on doing to get money out of me. I hate when people mess with me like this | |

I wonder where they said the job was (what town and state)... too many "holes" in the proposition! Steer clear! Debbie

Donating YT 11K Club Member | This is what I wrote back: Okay but you still did not answer my question....why do I have to open an account with Wells Fargo bank, and no I did not do it yet. I'm confused are you a male or female because you said your husband has the job at Royal Caribbean but you signed your name Chris Livingstone...isn't that a male's name? Also I asked when can we do an interview? You don't even know me and you trust me with your 2 yr old daughter Kathy? You didn't even read my resume yet....oh and why would you have to reschedule your work hrs? Aren't you looking to find a nanny that is convenient for YOUR business hours? It doesn't make sense but please DO explain so that I can do an interview with you and I can start working for you asap, as I'm sure you would like me. I have tons of experience and would love to open up a daycare in the near future. Have a wonderful night Sarah About the daycare thing I'm not sure I was just saying that so that they write back, I'm just trying to waste their time, since they wanna go around stealing ppl's money |
