SCAM ALERT!!!!!

Dear fellow New Teachers and well seasoned :)


I am here to warn you about job offers that seem as they say 'To good to be TRUE'

My story begins when on February 20th I received a very exciting and interesting job offer form a man who claimed to be new to the UK from China and is looking for a English teacher for his very dear wife and two kids.
He offered to pay me 3200 GBP a month, give me my own place with Internet, TV, Kitchen, Full bath and a car to drive around with + he will cover my flight and visa help, all I have to do is teach and be willing to ay 1 year possibly 18 months.

I was so excited but then I started to think about it, why such an offer to a stranger in Canada? there are many teachers in the UK, so I wrote back and said yes tell me more and I asked many questions over several e-mails and he responded in kind but I still felt that it smells 'Fishy' So like the good investigator that I am I had asked for photos of him and family + a name and contact info as a reference for him just so I know he is for real. Well let me tell you he did send those photos 4 photos of a man a woman and two kids and gave me a reference name and two e-mail addresses but here is the catch, the name he gave me was for a person that works for the UK Border Agency. So now you think you can trust it right? WRONG! I contacted every office via e-mail at the UK Border Agency and I was sent a reply 24 hrs later and here is what I was told, please read to the end:
