I replied to it with some bullshit that im interested and the proof came that they were crooks:

How are you today?,Myself and my wife are looking for a reputable Au
pair who can take good care of our daughter,here are little
information about us and our daughter and what we need you to do.

My name is Gordon and i am a dentist while my wife is an
accountant,we have one daughter,Fabby she is 4.she love the
cycling,games and the amusement park.Myself and my husband own a house
with a lovely garden in it. We reside in a conducive environments with
good people around us...... you are not only wanted as an Au pair
alone but as part of my family.I believe you can help her with all her
needs.

We would love you to work 4 or 5 hours per day,from Monday to
Friday.Our family is a little hectic at times but fun loving,and
energetic as well,Our house is 25 minutes drive away from the North
coast (England) and 15minute train journey to Essex.

We are only 30 Min's from the International airport,You would be
required to bath my daughter in the mornings and at nit before going
to bed,and also take her to school and going to pick her up after
school back home,Monday-Friday If you could drive is okay,we have
available a car that can be used ) although the school is about
700meters from our home,its a walking distance for me ,:)Fabby our
daughter needs more care as she would be in the house,cooking of meals
are also involved in the Au pair duties,You will be living with us.you
will have your private room which will have
bathroom,toilet,television, air-conditioner.You will have access to
the Internet and the telephone at home to get in touch with your
friends and loved ones.you will have your own double room with en
suite shower facilities.

I would expect you to work for 25-30hrs per week Mon-Fri with weekends
off you can start doing some other things here in UK as you will have
your working permit as soon as I'm okay with you u will have to do
some housework.

I am willing to pay you 4000pounds every 4 weeks + 400 pounds per week
but you will process your traveling document yourself,500pounds will
be giving to you once you arrive to the Uk,that does not affect your 4
weeks salary.Also i am willing to carry 40% of your traveling document
and you can take care of the 60% yourself.

Do let me know what you think about this offer?


Here is my Contact Home address here in United Kingdom and as soon as
you've arrived in the airport i shall come for the pickup 64 Reede
Road, Dagenham, Essex,RM10 8DX United Kingdom

Please note if you want to further your education i will secure an
admission for you in a school close by.It will be highly appreciated
if you can arrive in our Family before end of June and you can stay
for 6month or more,do let me know if you are okay with that also do
you have a Britsh visa in case you don't have we have a reliable and
dependent Britsh embassy sub travel agent who will help you with your
trip and all your
documents they are reliable and expert they can help you secure a visa
in no time,here is their email below, ( [email protected] )

They usually help my families and my staff whenever anyone wants to
travel outside United Kingdom,just state to them that you need a visa
for UK to work for Dwan's family.

Let me know whatever they discuss with you so as to know where to
help.I'm am assuring you they will help you with a cheaper and faster
visa,work permit and flight ticket.

Best wishes.

Gordon
