Dolces it's a scam. The writing is not up to the standard you would expect from professional people. I also pick up a phrase

over there in your country

meaning that the scammer hasnt ediited the message as it is too complicated when you mass mail people and dosn't know or care where you are. I suggest you are familiar with entry requirements for UK via Border Agency website and in any case whatever country you think you may go to always check first. Payment for a Visa using Western Union/ Money gram is never done and is always a scam and travel agents and Barristers who say they do visa applications are also scammers. Embassies don't deal with copies of passports etc only with original documents. Also don't follow links on such messages because they may divert you to fake sites.

Here is the Facebook profile of your scammer.
https://www.facebook.com/carolyne.aarsen.9

Worked at Orange
Studied at Manchester Metropolitan University (MMU)
Lives in London, United Kingdom
Born on November 19

The English is not that of a native speaker of English. I'm not familiar enough with Danish to tell, but it looks a bit more West African than Danish to me. The pay doesn't look reasonable for an au-pair.

Yes Dolces, as the other members have indicated it's a scammer trying to fleece you. A large part of the script you published has been used in a previous scam attempt from July twenty eleven.

Thank you all for helping me understand. Unfortunately I'm discouraging to find a family because all those who write to me have turned scam. thank you again!
