Note this comment;

I googled this agency and it is genuine however the address that the travel manger told me was diffrent from the real physical address of the travel agency. Econo Travel agency should be aware that someone is using their name for Fraud. I am already ready to send money to them when I found this forum. Thank you for this. At least now, I know they are not genuine. Below are the emails I received from these people. Beware of them!!!!

Further mails from this scammer;

Well our home is located in Manchester ,am sure you will find the city very welcoming and exciting.Okay, am very happy that you want to work with my family, as i have told you earlier that the secret to my kids happiness is by being a friend to them and taking them out so you will have to do that alot.
My last aupair left because she got married this last december to a British in the UK, my family all went for her wedding and it was an interesting moments and we are already missing her so we want a replacement urgently. you will have free periods on weekends because my wife will be at home to take care of the kids, you will also have freedom of public holidays, the work is of no stress as you will only have to take the kids to school around 8am and pick them up 4pm on schooling days and from 8am-4pm, you will be free and you can use your free period for what ever you prefer(reading,schooling or languagelearning), while during holiday, my kids attend pre-school lessons so you will have to take them there also but that takes lesser time and they spend a maximum of 3 hours. I know a traveling agency, good and respected, they help us with traveling and they helped our last aupair, you can contact them ([email protected]) to email you so that they can
explain to you all the requirements that is necessary and importants to comedown to the UK,they will help you with traveling and coming over to be with my family, send a mail to them and tell them that you are from Harrison Family and they will need your traveling documents.
I will like to hear from you about what the agency has said. please let me be aware of it so that everything can work as we have bothplanned.. I will like to hear from you about what the agency has said. Hope to hear from you soon .
kind Regard.
