Direct Hiring Filipino Nanny

My opinion, ANY job that asks you to pay money up front should be treated with suspicion.  My advice to anybody who deals on the internet is "USER-BEWARE".

Hope this helps.

thanks Cynic, that is why I keep on researching in order to make sure.

I would say no, don't pay anything!  This is a general rule with any "job".  The employer has the responsibility of arranging visa and paperwork.  Also, why is this price being quoted in USD instead local currency?  Ask yourself, could you afford to lose 1400-1500 USD if it's a scammer and there is no job??

Thank you, for your advice romaniac

I agree.
If they want cash there's a good chance it's a scam.
Never send money.

Thanks for the advice Fred, yes scammers are now often esp. in the internet. But I don't want to conclude immediately though I have doubts. The agreement is I will send money to the Filipino Company that will process my papers. And so my said employer will also meet the said Filipino agency for the processing matters. She will pay the half amount in that agency and me the same way too. In short, the transfer of money will be on the Filipino Company that will process everything. If I am the one who will choose for the said filipino agency is this safe?

I already found the said Filipino Agency located in RUSSIA so that my said employer can meet with the agency to comply other requirements for the processing of my documents. What if she will agree to process my papers on the agency that I personally choose?
