The agency is fake, and is part of the scam.

Thanks for your response and i quite understand your plight. I want
you to know that i need an Au pair as fast as possible so i would be glad to
know if you are available to start the Job on or before xx xxxxxx 2012.
About your traveling documents, I have an agency which can help you in
getting your documents quick and even at a reasonable cost. Here is the agency
email address: [email protected] you should contact them to request from
them the total cost of your traveling documents needed to come to USA.I
would be glad to know the agency feedback in order to know the total cost of
your traveling documents. I want you to know that i couldn't pay all the
expenses for you due to my past experience (i paid all the expenses and when
the Au pair got her visa and Flight Ticket, she never turn up to take care
of my kids).I'm willing to pay half of the expenses and you will pay half
of the total cost as well.Please note that i wouldn't welcome the idea
of you saying that i should pay all the expenses and I will get pay back
on salary deduction when you arrive. I need a serious minded person who is
really willing to take care of kids so you should be prepared to pay your
own part (which is your commitment to confirm to me that you are really
serious).I will be expecting your response to inform me about the agency
feedback so we could start the processing at once. You are the one to decide how
long you are willing to stay with my family.Not having a driver license is
not a problem.

Thanks
Taylor
