Mr. Allen Dave scam

This email i received last week, i already found out it wasn't real because of the poor english

Hello,
Am Allen Dave from London (United Kingdom).and I am 48 year old.I work in a garment industry and i spend most of my time at work and my wife work as a missionary so most of the time she travels out on London.Am looking for an aupair who could take care of our two lovely kids Peter and Maria age 4 and 6.They both attend school.


We would love you to be a part of our very happy family. We would love you to settle into our home and help me out with the children. We live in a beautiful area, in our new house with lots of walks around us. We are only minutes from the town so you get the best of both worlds. There are lots of groups/clubs around us that you could join, and aupairs in the area also who will be a good support to you. You would have your own car and weekends off. Our house is new. You will have your own newly decorated bedroom, bathroom, living room, tv, free internet access, own entrance if you wish. Its a large house so you would have your privsacy but are also free to join us at any time. Its up to you really. As i said before we are pretty easygoing. If you had an interest in horses that would be helpful. Mostly so my wife doesn't bor you :-We also have 3 dogs - 2 labradors and a St Bernard, they are beautiful and really gentle.. You would not need to help out with the animals at all but its just good to know that you wouldn't be afraid of them. Basically we love our life, we would like you to be a part of it.


Your working house will be a maximum of 40 hours per week or 8 hours per day with 1½ or 2 full days off per week.So that you can have time for yourself to do all other things here in London.You will have one weeks holiday pay after six months, and two weeks after a year. Also there is a good language school around us so if there is need for you to attend a language class just let us know so that we can make an arrangement for you.


Your salary will be paid per week so you net pocket money will be 350GBP weekly.You will have to eat with us because We don't want to have a Nanny, we want to have a big sister and a little help for the mother and a lot of fun all together.


We are expecting our aupair to take good care of the kids.You will have to take them to school and bring them back.Help them with some of there home work.So your primary duties will revolve around the children.You will be expected to do some light housework e.g,keep the children rooms clean,vacuum,wash dushes.e.t.c .


We would expect you to start working with us as soon as you can so if we sound like your kind of family then all what you just have to do now is to contact this traveling agent [email protected] via there email address they will be the one who will help you with all your traveling document.I expect your response for me to know if you are interested in working with us.You can call me on this line +447031938769

Of course you are absolutely right in believing this is a scam!

Another thing worth noting is the 44-70 phone number. If you see a phone number that starts with 4470, you can assume you are dealing with a scammer. Phone numbers that start with 4470 are issued by a UK company, but they are NOT actual UK phone numbers. They are redirect numbers that can be forwarded to phones all over the world. They are used often by scammers pretending to be in UK. Someone who is really living in the UK as this scammer claims would not have a 4470 number.

I got this email on facebook:

Thank you and i will be expecting a reply from you very soon.

fake ore real????

scam! Even in that short email, there are clear indicators that the person writing it is not American.

The scammer either doesn't have an account, or it was closed because it was reported for scamming.
