Hello chez!

This is 100% a scam! This is a very typical Au Pair scam format. The email address you posted can be found on a couple other anti-scam sites. He is also using a redirect phone number +4470 numbers appear to be in the UK but are actually re-direct numbers that can be re-directed to a cell phone any where in the world.

The scammer is going to try and steal the 50% of the "processing fees". The truth is there is no job and no family just a scammer.

Glad you got suspicious before loosing any money!

Justin

It sounds as if you are baiting him, and we strongly urge people not to do this without taking precautions such as not using your real life email address.
