    whois gives the creation date of domain name britishlocalnews.com as 2010-01-11 so it looks like it may have been set up recently just for this alleged scam. Allegedly.

    Life is not the way it’s supposed to be. It’s the way it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference.

    dont ever let a company ask YOU for money to WORK for them. Its an unwritten rule. For example, Tesco wouldn't ask money up-front from you to work for them, would they?

    beware people, there are many scammers out there :)
