A friend of my fiancee has just been offered a working Visa to the UK as a nanny. She's very keen to take this up, and mailed me to let me know how pleased she was.

I sent back congratulations, I didnt think you could do that anymore as its all tied up on a points based system. (Am I right?)

SHe's just emailed me to tell me they want £1000 for processing the application for her and a friend, and it seems her friend was introduced via Yahoo Mail.

I'm pretty certain this is a scam, but maybe I'm just jaded. What do you think?
