Scams offering fake Au Pair positions
by Chris Fuller Sat Jun 04, 2011 12:54 am
This is not a genuine au pair opportunity; it is a scam.

If you are looking for an au pair position in the USA, please read these US Government webpages about the US Au Pair Program:

http://j1visa.state.gov/participants/how-to-apply/

Do not send money to any agency, embassy, lawyer, or other person introduced to you by a potential host family.

I received the same mail from a Cleverland Hooper and James Wren.

I think, it's the same person.

It might be the same scammer - or it might be a different scammer, using the same copy-and-pasted text for his introductory scam mail. Whichever it is, could you post the email addresses which Cleverland Hooper and James Wren are using? Then when other au pairs who received the same emails google the addresses, they will be able to read here and discover that these au pair offers are scams.
