  1. We have had some houseboys over the years. We helped a few get here, but never money directly. It was not uncommon for them to be desperate, homeless having been put out by parents or abused and just needed somewhere stable to figure out what they wanted to do. With social attitudes changing that is not as common today. There are also major scammers out there. Of our former houseboys quite a few are now very successful and we are still friends. Our hiring goes: email, phone, video chat - now facetime, we even ask for references (some go from location to location). Stretch it out if you can and become friends, get to know their personality. If they are a scammer they will move on when they know money is not coming. We have done bus tickets, flight, gone to meet them personally. There are some really great houseboys out there. There are also human trafficers out there, they always want money up front. Money directly is always a scam.
  2. Hi guys, We tried calling him and of course the number wasn't valid. Did talk to someone for about 4 words that sounded subcontinent Indian. He has told us visas....620 and needs flight money, blah, blah, blah We agreed to have a friend meet him. Great but I'll need accomodation money... He doesnt have a modern scannable passport. lol lol lol Yeah whatever "Dave"
  3. I was also scammed today. By "hire me". Similar situation. Had talked for awhile and came to an agreement. He was going to work with me at my business. I was going to meet him , which he agreed to, but couldn't leave work at the moment. So I sent him money and he disappeared from here, probably for a new profile. I already have police looking at surveilance tapes for him. Fortuna , Ca name Keith Burg I know, but I have success in the past. He has even posted about scams.
