Au Pair - Alfred Joseph Schmitz

This is a scam. The scammer calling himself Alfred-Josef Schmitz is not really living in London, and does not have an au pair job to offer. His IP addresses prove that he is actually living in Nigeria. Likewise, his telephone number, like all telephone numbers which begin +44 70, is not a normal UK telephone number; it is a 'redirect' number, which redirects all calls to a mobile phone almost anywhere in the world. In this case, all calls are redirected to the scammer's mobile phone in Nigeria.
