An advert was recently posted by someone claiming to be the Roche School in London:

Roche School
11 Frogmore, London SW18 1HW
frog more
SW18 1HW
United Kingdom
tel: +447045712954
info.rocheschool.co.edu@gmail.com
rocheschool.page.tl

Warning signs:

1. Poor English

2. The website has a .tl extension - why does a British school have a website registered in East Timor?

3. Is "frog more" an area of London?

4. The website itself is clearly a poor imitation of the real Roche School's website, http://www.therocheschool.co.uk/

5. The phone number is the same one used in another scam, posted about here: viewtopic/t-1467


** Update 7 May 2010: **

A similar advert has been posted - the email address used this time is bristol_ben@yahoo.com. All other details remain the same.
