First letter
Hello My Dear,

First of all i wanna say thanks for your reply, I commend your interest in my family, I contacted 5 people, i have only gotten response from 2 people for now so its either your or the other that will eventually have to get the job. i will pick the best person that i think will fit well into my family.
you will sure have your separate room to yourself if you want to live with us as a family.. Well my family needs your attention but it all depends when you are ready to come down here we will be happy to see you at the appointed time that best fits you.
I am a very busy woman and all i want is to have someone who can look out for my children . I travel a lot and sometimes they are left alone with strangers so i decided that if we had someone who would be always with us as a family in the home when i am gone for a trip the children can therefore have someone to cater for them. i am so pleased that you have agreed to come and be with my family I assure that we will be like a family together.
Indeed my Husband has well agreed that he would acquire a agency for the procurements of your visa documents needed for your traveling down here he has a Agency that works with an international consulate here in California, with the help of Mr Bryant we would be able to arrange for the documents you would need to get down here, when done all documents would be sent to the USA embassy in your country, so you can just walk in there and get your visa stamped on your passport. All that would be done from here efficiently so you don't need to bother . I am trying to explain this whole well to you now so you don't get it twisted, we are a very decent family and we love our reputation as such we would not want anything to soil this reputation. I will let you know how to contact with Mr Dwayne at the right time so he can do all the paper work as soon as he can, well i am sure he wouldn't be needing more than 14 working days to get ll necessary documents ready.
You can stay with my family as much as you want, all I beg for is that you are of good manners. Your duties are to take care of the house, and manage all affairs when i am not around, prepare meals and take care of my kids when am away from home. my kid has no and no health problems and they are absolutely okay.
My Husband and i are very good people and we love sincerity and patience in all we do. I want you to Understand that we both will be responsible for the Expenses .. 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. Its not we cant bear the expenses but we are only taking some cautious and precaution as we have lost some money while trying to help a nanny but she happens to be a fake

Hi goldenrodfox and welcome to ScamWarners.

It's a scam I'm afraid.

The language has the signs of being written by an African writer, rather than a native English speaker.

The salary offered is too high for an au pair position.

Finally, they are trying to introduce you to a travel agency to "obtain your visa".

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.

Hello goldenrodfox, could you also post the email address which the fake Shirley Stengel is using - many au pairs google the email addresses of potential host families, and it will be helpful to them if this can lead them here, and they can also learn that this is a scam.
