I have had an exchange of emails with my brother now (and he has looked at all the documents, which of course he has agreed are total nonsense).

He has given me some links and email addresses for those Filipinos who are tempted to follow a similar path as this unfortunate young lady.

I think that the gov.uk site could be usefully posted as a sticky on the 'jobs' section of this forum (if it hasn't already).

There is not much else I can do to help now, as our Actionfraud team (link in my previous post) will only take information from the actual victim, but for others, 'forewarned is forearmed'.

I have sent the file of documents to the British Embassy in Manila.
