    I think it's weird that all of the scams I have gotten have mentioned how the parent will be driving the child to my house and picking them up form my house.

      I mean right- it's a home daycare, what else would they do? We don't make house calls! LOL

        Whenever you see the word " kindly" it's almost always a scam
        Also when they are moving from another country and they need your info before they even meet you

          The weird terminology and grammar is because they just type up the scam stuff, throw it into Google translator and post it, and some words don't translate exactly. Like he probably tried to say "lovely wife" but whatever the word for lovely is in his language translates to "angelic" in English. Plus, whole sentences don't translate as well.

          When you respond to him, he just translates it back into his language.

            I guess I'm slow, but what is the scam? They don't seem to be asking for money or bank info. Do they ask for that later? Is it just a phishing or pharming thing to gather names and addresses?

              I dunno, My guess is they ask for it later.
