Welcome to Scamwarners, erni84 and baghirenok !


Google [email protected] and you will see that "she" is searching for an Au pair in a few different countries including France and Australia. Definitely a scam. Please read this thread for more info on the Au pair scam: http://scamwarners.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3232

If you would post an email or two from "her", including the headers, we might be able to see where the messages were sent from. Most likely Nigeria.


Mrs Sarah Harewood is also a scammer. There are many signs in the email that you received that this was not written by an American.
I googled :
How does the aupair live:The au pair would have her own room, which is huge, and has a double bed, with sitting area and TV/DVD/Video/Hifi. There is wireless broadband internet in the house.

There is page after page of results.

Or google:
We really want someone who can interact,engage with the kids.We would really enjoy a light-hearted, fun, and enthusiastic person and We have a really good cleaner, so there wouldn't be any heavy housework.

See what I mean? This is a very common line in an au pair scam.

Please post the email that you got, with headers, and hopefully we can see where the scammer is sending the messages from.
