The email that you have received is a scam, as can be proved by searching on the phrase "Am a full time worker and i work with the British American Tobacco Company" which gives a link to the following post viewtopic.php?f=42&t=24704&p=75303#p68653.

Please could you post the email address that your email came from so that anyone else who receives it can avoide being scammed.

This is another email from the fake Mrs Catherine Holmes. Scammers hope to steal the full amount of money which they first request, but if an au pair cannot afford to send this amount, scammers are willing to steal any smaller amount of money which the au pair can afford.
