This is not a genuine au pair opportunity; it is a scam. These emails were not really sent from the UK; they were sent from Nigeria, as proven by the IP addresses, eg 41.138.164.76 - Owerri, Nigeria.

Subject: Hello
Dear Aupair,
We would be very happy to have you in our family to share new experiences. We enjoy in meeting people coming from different countries and cultures and would like to give such great opportunity to our little angels. We live in UK. in a very quite area but not so far from underground to reach city center and all monuments and attractions in UK...Our family is composed by Mum (31 years old), Dad (36 years old) and our little angels. Mum and Dad are working during the day from Monday to Friday, while our little angels is at the playschool until 16:30.
We currently live in a 5 bedroom, 3.5 bath, 4 car garage, 3600+ sq feet house and you would have a room to yourself with your own full bathroom, in separate part of the house - so you would have your own privacy. We can also provide you with a vehicle to drive our little angels to/from school, there activities, and anywhere else you may need to go. We will offer you free home and board, as well as free meals, and will pay you a total of 2050GBP per month If that is okay with you...
We expect our Aupair to make sure our little angels get to school, complete there homework, after school activities. Any time that we are out of town, we will need our Aupair to cook healthy meals, take care of them, maintain the house, and ensure our little angels is well taken care of (we do have a housekeeper that cleans the house) during our out of town business. We do have family vacations and you will come with us wherever we go, and would want you to become part of our family.
We have some Question for you..
1. What do you enjoy most about working with children?
2. Have you been to the United Kingdom before?
3. Do you drive? How often? Do you have an International License?
4. How will you feel about joining our family and having to respect its house rules?
5. What type of relationship do you have with your family? How do they feel about you coming to UK for a year?
We will be so much happy if you can answer those question and get back to us with your full curriculum vitae and recent photos of yourself.

We hope to read from you as soon as possible
