Received job offer/scam. Job offer: tutor son while on vacation for 2 weeks while visiting from China. Four 2-hour sessions at $50/hour plus $20 for textbook. Doesn’t sound outrageous, so no red flags. Then he sent me money orders for about $2500, asking me to send the rest to the boy’s nanny for expenses, as he was currently out of town. RED FLAG. I’m having the authorities follow up on this.

Same old stuff from Nigeria. Seems that anything from there should be disregarded.

Yes, It’s true and this all is fraud.
I also get this offer.One Russian try to cheat me.
I just applied and post my resume for ESL teacher website and got many offer from specially Nigeria.All were ready to pay $4000+ insurance+ holidays etc.that’s sound a more then good opportunity.Well there was always suspicion in my mind because I am a Yoga teacher and this Guy name Rev Rabin…kogan ask me to teach english to her wife and daughter.He say he is a Russian and work for a missionary in a church.I was not really believing 1% but I send a reply and ask for the offer,and very easily get it.The man only ask about my valid passport,driving licence and about my family.He didn’t need to know about my any qualification.He ask for my private mobile number and give me a call.I talk to him and find that he really have a russian accent of English.I got a 1/2% believe on this guy because I feel he is speaking truth.He send me a contract letter and some Nigeria teachers accociation “trcn” form to fill and send to him.I look this trcn have a web site but it was blocked.I was still deciding about it because it would be a big decision for me to leave my already settled job and plan to go Nigeria.Nobody asked me to send any money even this man say that he have already payed my trcn fee $350 and now I cannot move back.Without my full yes he say he payed(stupid cheat).
in the mean time I talked to my American friend Tim (Thank’s to him)and he say my dear this is cheat.Nobody is gonna spend $60000 per annum for him family on English teaching.And missionaries are always need of money they are not rich people,they work on peoples donations.Even in America missionaries are not so rich.It’s a average Doctor salary in America.If U have a lot of energy then U can go and look in Nigeria,Otherway he say if U are a fool then go Nigeria.He say check this man name on google search if he have ever before cheat with this name or somebody do cheat like this.I search and find many many cheats from Nigeria.I tell my brother and he find this page.

I stop any transactions from him but his calls keep coming and i say I don’t want now.He say me to mail him.
I mail him and advise him to leave these things,Cheating people and don’t take name of job. I also say him that don’t say himself a servant of God.etc.
He reply me this I am enclosing U the copy.
{why sounding like an old fool looking for whom to insult,have i ever ask you for money?
go to hell}
I still reply him that I will go tho heaven or hell my karmas will decide and his karmas will decide for him.so he should do some nice work start from right now.I no need to wish him go to hell,I wish him go to heaven.Maybe he meet me there,I have some chances to be settled in heaven.Ha Ha(That’s a joke),then I will ask him why he do this.If he is really a Russian then why is he making his country name in dirt.
I also enclose all the websites and Emails he use for this fraud.
1.”blaxland reynolds” 2.Nigerian immigrations via travel_globe_ng@yahoo.com
3. Rev Kogan personal e-mail address
rev_kogan@yahoo.com

I also copy his invitation I get on my Email ID.
