I just got the exact same email. It's a scam

I got the same email, been emailing him back and forth for a few days. Should have looked here first before I wasted my time lol. He hasn't said anything about sending a cheque tho he did ask if he needed to pay a deposit and I told him no. I guess I will see if he emails back again. Thankfully the first email made me suspicious so he has no info from me except my email address.
FYI the name he used is Jim Niber and his wife Rebecca and kids Brochu and Wayne. Even went as far as sending a family pic. email jimniber@icloud.com. Doubt they ever use the same names tho.
Scary!

I've just been dealing with him as well. He goes by Pinet Niber with me. Same names for his wife and kids. Ugh. Thankfully I found this thread before he sent me the money order. Ugh.

Wow, you'd think he'd at least change the names. Sounds identical to the email I got. I didn't reply as I didn't want him to have my email addy. I don't entirely trust the internet to keep my info private.

We had the same situation at our center. A Jim Niber wanted to register his 3 year old son at our center for when he returned with his family after working in Mexico for 5 years. He sent us a picture of his "family" and asked questions about our center. He sent us a CIBC money order for $2790.00 and said that his "associate" overpaid us. He wanted us to send money orders back to Mexico for his "properties shipment". I contacted the bank and they said the money order is a fraud and to take it to the police.

I've been in business 6 years and these scams have been going on ever since I started, so obviously longer than 6 years. Why hasn't somebody caught one of them by now? Ugh! I always just delete them, but I notice that I only get them when I advertise on daycarebear. I'm not going to stop advertising here because I find great clients on this site too, but it seems to be a popular site for spammers and scammers.

Greetings,
My name is Mr Niber and my wife name is Rebeca. We just searched for your contact on internet, when searching for a daycare in your area for our son. We are relocating to your area and we need a daycare to register our little boy as soon as possible ahead of our arrival in your area. His name is Brochu and he's almost 3 years old
I will like to know if you have open space to register our son because we want to register our son with you now before our arrival, so we can focus on setting up our business without any waste of time on searching for daycare once we get over there.
We will like to always drop our child at your daycare Monday to Friday every morning by 10 AM to 3 PM or 4 PM. Also i will like to know how much money do you charge per day?
Please get back to me on time if you have open Space for our son and let me know your daily fees as well, so we can continue on their registration process with you.
I will be waiting for your quick response.
Thanks

Hello,
We are Canadians living and working in Mexico for the past 5 years, it is time to move back to Canada in less than 2 weeks , I would have loved to call you to talk better on the phone but our work schedule will not permit me and I'll need to buy a calling card to do so, that's why I chose emailing for registration process before we arrived.
Your fee is very affordable for us and it's perfect with our budget as planned, but before we go forward, the safety of our child is very important to us.
If you do not mind, we'd like to know about you? What should be our expectations on our child while attending your daycare? What about food , you will be the one that provides him food or He should always go with His food? You can also provide additional information as well .
Your prompt reply will be appreciated. I'll get back to you with all the necessary information you need to know about our child to continue the registration process and I'll send you our latest family photo.
Thanks
