Got this email today - had one before, but reckon it's a scam. Local minders replied, after a few emails, and they send a cheque - but for too much. Then ask you to send back the extra - before the cheque bounce - hopefully yours doesn't and they get away with your cash.

Look out for anyone getting the same email.

Hello,

I need the service of a Childminder for my 2 1/2 Year old Son who will be visiting Glasgow with my wife from Germany for the persion of 3 weeks from The 1st Decemeber 2009 to 20th of Decemebr 2009. You will be looking after the child from the hours of 10 am in the morning to 4 pm in the Evening. The mother is attending classes at the University of Glasgow and for some course on her project.

I will want you to email me the fees for the rending of this service.

Best Regards

Runge Wolfgang

Report it to the local police and also Trading Standards as I believe this to be the same person/s as the Harry Roasario one and I know that they are involved in it.
