Scams offering fake Au Pair positions
by Chris Fuller Sun Jan 01, 2012 2:13 am
This is not a genuine au pair opportunity; it is a scam. This email was not sent from England; it was sent from Nigeria, as proven by the IP address: 41.184.16.69 - Lagos, Nigeria.

Subject: Family wants service of nanny,aupair.

Greetings,
We send our sincere greetings to you in the name of God almighty.
I am Mrs Tina Aniston, wife of Dr Jonas Aniston, and mother of Johnson and Linda. We are therefore a happy family of four. We are from the USA, we live and work in the USA but currently on holiday in ENGLAND London.
We are nice and happy family, we want the service of a nanny/aupair. Its the first time to request for a nanny/aupair. we have never had any nanny/aupair in past times so if you accept our family, you will be our first ever nanny/aupair. My family seek a good person to cater for the kids and the home when we are away. We will pay weekly or monthly anyhow you want it. The monthly salary is $2000.
It will be our joy to have you work for us. My husband provided us with your contact email and ordered me to write you a letter on behalf of the family.
We will like to know about you and we will also like to know if you are interested in working for us.
If interested, do well to get back to me.

God bless you so much.
I hope to hear from you soon.

Tina

Happy new year, Thanks for the reply it really shows you care to work for me and I must say am happy things are going really smooth at the moment. Sorry for replying late though.Just trying to tie up some things and you know the holiday just ended. I want you to know a little more about us(My husband, my kids and I)
We live our life in love and harmony. My husband loves the kids and so do i, My self and My hubby are more of the traveler as I always go on trips for my company. the kids are 4 and 6 years respectively Linda is a fan of football while Johnson is a soccer fan. They are really nice and fun to be with as well as they can be troublesome (hahahaha).They are really healthy kids. Like i earlier said I really need someone that will care for them as their own or as siblings.That I may be rest assured and sure that my kids are in good hands even when am away on trips.

I really wanna be sure you want to really work for me thus I would like to ask you more questions that did not come across my mind the very first time i wrote you.

what is your real age?
you got kids?do you have any experience about first aid?
what do you do for now (i mean your job)?
how do you intend to treat my kids?
will you also like to help with some house work?
Where are you living right now?
Do you have more photos of you that my kids and I can see?
Can you chauffeur my kids to school?
Will you like to live with us ?
Would you like an Insurance?
Is there anything you would like to ask?


We are currently in the UK and we will be back in the states pretty soon, we will love it that you can resume you duties as soon as possible, possibly wew would want you to come down to the states the very day wewill get back home. I hope we can really work things out quickly and you can be here really soon.Thus, we are ready to give out a pay of $2000 a month which is still negotiable with some other conveniences like a car which you might use to chauffeur my kids to school and for your daily run arounds too. If you have a partner you can also come along with Him/Her.

I would also like you to live with us for easy performance of your duties

If i may ask what are your preparation for your visa dwn here,I would like you to Note that I may help make arrangement for your visa documents and travel papers through a relaible friend of mine that owns an agency for procurriung trael document, In a month i am sure that all document can be readily available.

I have already started talking to my kids about you and they very much welcome the Idea

Hope To read from you soon

Happy New Year

Tina Aniston.

The agency which the scammer writes about is also fake, and is part of the 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://exchanges.state.gov/jexchanges/p ... upair.html

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.

Hello,

I will like to inform you that you will need a Visa Documents and Working Permit for you to be able to work with our Family In United State Of American and We will be happy if you do the document with our agency here in USA cause We have been working with them for the past 15 years now and they are good, perfect and working hard and it will be better if you can contact them.first of all we want you to know that you can come here and you can stay and work for us as long as you like. Also I share your view about getting into the united state legally. I want you to have all the necessary documents you need to come with before the end of the month or next month. Also we can recommend an agency for you in United State,if you might have problem in getting a reputable and experience traveling agent in this field, We can recommend the one that handled our last Au pair's document and visa and the charges are affordable and they are affiliated to Bell View airways and approved by the commonwealth body and the United State Government. I have to inform you that it will take the travel agency 3 weeks to make the visa and document to be ready and it will be sent to your contact address which you give them.
i will inform you on how to contact the agent himself so you both can get to introduce yourselves to eachother. You will make enquiries regarding the visa and document for you to come to the United State and we are going to be the one to pay your flight ticket and all you need to do is to contact the agency for your the processing of your visa and document to come to our family here, when you have contact them they will tell you how much it will cost you and how you can send the money to them and it will get to them and they will start working on your document and visa, please kindly understand that we cant deduct any money from your salary to do all this for you and to be on the fair side and also to earn your trust, I want you to be honest with us and let us know how much you have out of the processing fee the travel agency will charge you and we will pay the rest as soon as you receive mail from the agency.please understand that we cant pay all the money for your traveling initially but as soon as you arrive in person to the united state, we will be glad to refund all expenses made to you. Anyway i hope you are okay with this, contact the agency and also let me know if $2,000 will be ok per calendar month as your salary and you will be working for 35-40 hours per week, all other things would be free. We will appreciate your taking care of our kids. I hope to read from you soonest.
