However,we have make inquires about your coming and how to proceed with your travel documents/certificate of eligibility to work legally in UK.

My Brother that works with the UK Home Office here in UK will be of help and assured that they can do it. so i advice lets follow the UK Home Office procedures,to make the process faster.

Welcome here elelor.

Yes, this is a scam! The amount of money they want to pay for an au pair is far too high. Also you do not need a work permit for an au pair position, and the certificate of eligibillity is fake, such a thing doesn't exist.
Could you please post the email address this scammer uses please?

Being a victim doesn't mean you stand alone. We're here to help you.
