Welcome to Scamwarners mia22,

Yes, it is a scam Au Pair job offer. One of the clues is the scammer is using a fake UK Border email address. The email address is a non Government Address. This scammer used a free email service to make his fake address.

Always get your information from official websites. Official UK government websites always have '.gov.uk' at the end of their website address. For example, our website address is http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk

Official UK Border Agency email addresses are always in one of two formats:

[email protected]
[email protected]

Hi there, I received an email from Mr. Nicolas John this morning. The content is all the same from what mai22 posted.
Thank you for this site, I found it earlier! By the way, how can I upload the photos of Mr. Nicolas John? I want everyone to be warned, and to avoid scam from this person.

Thank you and more power.

Yours truly,
Ann
