Do not send money to any agency, embassy, lawyer, or other person introduced to you by a potential host family.

Hello,

How are you doing...? Its quite some time now I've not heard from you.
I expected the processing of your papers to have begin before now but
up till this moment, no update from your end to know how far you've
gone. I think it would do me and my kids a great help if you can just
let us know what you have in mind as regard to the processing of your
papers because you are obviously delaying both yourself and we.

My kids has made it a duty to ask about you. Always trying to know
when you will be coming over but I've not been able to give them a
specific answer. I really need you to become part of my family so you
can at the same time assist me take very good care of my kids but not
until the processing of your papers begin, I still will not have the
full confidence of employing you.

I don't really want to say this but am afraid I have to. This will
definitely be my last mail if I do not hear from you and I am giving
you till weekend to reply otherwise I will consider you no more
interested in coming to join us which means I will be hunting for
someone I consider would be as capable as you. Anyway, the kids always
ask me to extend his regards to you. Bye for now and I seriously hope
to hear from you soon cause I don't think I will find someone else so
easily. Take care!

Warm regards,

This scammer is now pretending to live in the UK.
