So at this point what I would advice you to do is to get a travel agent or agency of your choice because one Travel Agency have helped me with my previous Aupair that work with Aupair maybe you can contact that agency if you dont mind and their email is [email protected]. Who would be able to help process all your travel document and get you safely here before the end of next month . Anyway just get back to me should incase you might need my documents and my assistant in Part of your payment, which could be required by the immigration or travel agency to assist you in getting over here. I would like you to get back to me no matter what to let me know where you stand on this stand on this aupair issue , so i can start planning to prepare the ground for you before you get over here .

Hello Dear !
Its so good to hear back from you , I am glad at that because that shows a little bit of interest from you .
Anyway now that you have shown interest , I think it would be better and ideal for us both , For me to let you know the kind of person as regards my personality , what I do for a living where i reside , a picture of what my family look like ETC,
So at the moment now , simply because I do now travel every now and then looking for properties for our various valuable client I usually have little or no time for my kids , Basically that is the reason I really do need you now to come over here and take good care of my kids . I would be paying you $2500 for every four weeks and a pocket money of $500 per week, More so I would also like to let you know that you would be giving a room of your own with television and internet facilities likewise a television at your disposal in your room . You would also be allowed to attend part time studies to acquire skills and techniques at any institution which you wish to apply for . That can be done at you spare and free times though if you are interested you would need to pay for that with your personal saving after you must have resumed because I can not guarantee me paying your fees . I would also like to let you know that your working hours would be from 7am to 3pm when I would be back from work and you might also be ask to render little assistance to the kids after your full time working hours that is if you have made up your mind that you would stay with us . Your job basically is to take good care of the kids and teach them simple basic morals , no laundry , gardening , and all other domestic household chores are not included in your jobs and I am making all these privileges straight to you simply because , when you resume I want you to concentrate fully on taking care of the kids . You would also need to learn how to drive when you get over here because you might need to take the kids to school if necessary sometimes .
After having said all of these i would like to let you know that I would not be responsible for all your traveling expenses from the point of your departure to my place where you would be resuming your duty post , in any means . I am very sorry that this is my stand on this sponsorship issue of your simply because I have experienced different dishonesty from various Aupair which I have tried to employ and help by sponsoring them in getting over to the U.S to my place all this while . About 2 aupairs did absconded at the airport as i was going to the airport to have them picked up to resume at my house , more so I did sent money to about 3 other which did kept quiet and never responded after I did sent them the money to help them process their document
The last one requested that I send her my documents , so that her agent can help me process the documents that she would need to get over here , at the end of the day she never turned up and my lawyer warned me never to send such document outside the U.S again that it was very risky .
I am letting you know all this simply because I am trying to let yo know that , I would prefer an Auapir who would be capable for some of her expenses and be able to sponsor her trip over here to the U.S by herself . I am very sorry if i have sounded terrible and make you feel disappointing but these are just grief from what I have suffered and experienced in the past from dishonesty of different Auapir .
But i can introduce you to one of my Designated Travel agency that made it possible for my last Au pair Jovelyn from Philippines...The agency is good and legal i am sure they will help you out.
All you have to do is to send them an email and make enquiries you need to be able to come hear in USA,don't forget to tell them you are from me and i will email them too all about what they can do to help you out.
My Home Address is 64 Newman Street. City, Haleyville. Country,United state, State, Alabama.

Hi renae123
I'm sorry to hear that you have been in contact with a scammer. I understand how shocked and disappointed you must be feeling. You don't mention losing money, so I hope that you haven't.
As far as what you should do now? Just stop all contact with the scammer. It's best if you don't tell them that you know that it's a scam. He will likely try to stay in contact for a while, but if you just ignore him, he'll soon realize that there's no chance of him stealing any money from you and he'll move on to the next victim.

He send the exact email above, to me, too. And i played his game a little, he got a little confused and sent me a fake family picture, in order not to suspect him...

WHAT DO SUCH PEOPLE WANT??? do you have an idea... what their plan is..? i'm really curious.

Welcome to Scamwarners loricica22.

It's very simple loricica22, and if he asked you for $1,000 straight away you'd suspect that it was a scam immediately, so he'll try to persuade you that he's genuine, and the clever ones will take several e-mails telling you their fake story and explaining the situation but, he'll get to telling you how you have to pay money, usually by Western Union.

Never ever pay money to strangers by Western Union. Companies don't use it and people in the USA have bank accounts. Only a scammer would ask you to make a payment by Western Union because they know that they can easily pick up the money and they can't be traced.

Simply - he wants to steal money from you by pretending you that he can give you the job of your dreams. Don't let the scammer fool you. They know that many people dream of a job like this and he wants to use it to steal your money.

It's a disgraceful crime, but little can be done about it other than for us to warn people who might become a victim.

Non-EU citizens should go here to find out about obtaining a visa to work as an au pair in the UK
http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/doineedvisa/
Whenever payment is requested by Western Union you're dealing with a scammer
by Dotti Mon May 02, 2011 1:44 pm
As Gomer said, what he wants is your money.

And he told us how he plans to get it right here.

But i can introduce you to one of my Designated Travel agency that made it possible for my last Au pair Jovelyn from Philippines


The travel agent is a fake. It is the scammer or a partner of his, using a fake name and a different email address. The "travel agent" will tell you that you have to send money, either for your visa and other documents, or your travel to the US. If you send money, the scammer will either disappear with it, or he will try to get even more money by coming up with other fees that have to be paid to allow you to travel to your "job."

The scammer is African, and very likely has never even been in the United States. In the end, the only thing that would travel is your money into the scammer's pocket.
