Please help me out with this, thank you

Absolute scam.

The salary is too high and the English tells me the author is African, not British.

It is important to realize that UK actually has very restrictive policies regarding au pairs. You can ONLY be an au pair if you are:
-a resident of an EAA country or Switzerland (in which case you do NOT need a visa)
OR
-a resident of one of these countries, in which case you do need a visa:
Australia - 35,000 places
Canada - 5,500 places
Japan - 1,000 places
Monaco - 1,000 places
New Zealand - 10,000 places
Republic of Korea - 1,000 places (certificates of sponsorship)
Taiwan - 1,000 places (certificates of sponsorship)

If you are a citizen of one of the countries on the list above, you would apply for the visa yourself, in your country--and you would only be eligible if there were places left.

If you are a citizen of ANY other country, you cannot be an au pair in UK, and anyone who offers you a job is a scammer.
