He gave me the same story two days ago. When I said my partner and I would drive to him to put gas in his car and that my partner would ride back in his car while I drove mine, he immediately hung up.
Suggestions:
(1) Houseboys must have a public profile (Facebook, twitter, etc.) to verify that they are real.
(2) Must have a credit card verification to authentic "legal name"
(3) Must have an employer verify them (employer has to have met them in person or by phone and has verified they have real motives for being a houseboy.)
