Is Global Travel International/ Global Travel International Agency real?

Question

I got an offer for a certain Mr.Kunle Williams from the UK to be the nanny to his daughter.Then he reffered me to a certain travel agent name John Brixworht Jane with the address at London Embassy Uk.The employer to be email me his home add. as well as his office add. and phone number..I just wonder if its a scam or not for they insist that they are not part of any fraud or scam.

Answer 1

GTI is real, but the offer is certainly part of a scam.  Here's how this works...

They will send you a check for your services, which will be for more than the amount that you were to be paid.  The scam artist will then ask you to cash the check, deduct your payment, and wire the rest to him/a relative/someone else.  

The check will be fake, drawn on an account that is likely closed and will be returned unpaid.  This will be deducted from your checking account.  In the meantime, you will have sent money via western union which will be gone forever.  

In some cases they scam several levels of the transaction, including the travel agents (buying fully refundable tickets with stolen credit cards) so be careful.
