Scams offering fake Au Pair positions
#185689 by AlanJones Mon Dec 30, 2013 6:04 pm
This is an au pair fake job scam. There is no job, just a scammer looking to steal your money.

Hi,

I'm Mrs Stephaine Donovan, from NY, United States of America. I'm writing you on behalf of the entire family (my husband, our 2 children and I). Here is little about us. With us you find a family where unconditional love, peace and understanding reign. Our family do not like to judge a book by the cover or take gossip to determine who will be around. We always try to stay positive and find the best in anyone or any situation including the worst ones. My profile: I work as a sales manager at a walmart while my husband work as a civil engineer. How old? I'm 35years old of age. Why do we need your service? Due to the nature of my job, am not always around. I'll thereby need your service as a nanny for my kids. We are a social and fun to be with family looking for a enthusiastic aupair who adores children to spend their days enjoying their company. I will appreciate your response to know if you are interested.

Thanks
Stephaine

Hello XXX

I am grateful for your positive response. Allow me to explain more
about your assign duty and also about us.
At first, we reside in 117 South Ave, Staten Island, NY 10303, United
States. A nice, quite and calm city. Where we live is just about 25
mins drive from the big city of New York. I am blessed with two lovely
kids namely Ashley (she is 9 years old) and James (he his 7 years old)

What you are assign to do or I say your task as a nanny are as follows.
You'll be working 5 to 6 hours a day. You are required to prepare the
kids for school and take them to and from school. (that is, take them
to school and later go and pick them from school in the afternoon).
Care for and stimulate the children both mentally & physically, to
ensure their intellectual, physical and social development. Look after
their physical well being, encouraging proper use of everything - wash
and bath them, help them on how to dress and undress. You are required
to spend time with the child, running errands, house cleaning and
light cooking is a possibility, but not really a requirement. We
prefer someone who will reinforce our desire to teach our children
responsibilities and do not expect to undertake the children assigned
tasks but instead to find ways to encourage them to complete tasks (I
mean not to spoil the kids by doing everything for them).
On weekends (Saturdays) you'll take them out to new places such as
beach and other recreational places (You are fully free on Sunday).

When we want you to start and how long.
We did not have a specific date or reference to when you can start.
You can start anytime. We would like to have you for not less than two
months. It will be nice if you want to stay longer, even if you want
to stay for more than a year. Your happiness with us during your stay
is more important.

What we plan to offer.
We will be giving you $400 per week (I hope that is enough since we
will cater for your feeding. I mean you don't need to buy food from
outside). You and the kids will be going for shopping once in 5weeks.
We have internet facilities in the house for your use, a private room
with your own bathroom. A private car for you in taking the children
to and from school provided you know how to drive or willing to learn
driving. Getting you a driver's license will not be a problem.

Our interest as a family.
Our interests include the zoo, doing yoga, watching soccer, water
skiing, snow skiing, a walk in the park, play dates with friends,
arts, literature, traveling, shopping, cinema and taking good care of
our children. We love adventure, arts, traveling, soccer, literature,
laughter and our wonderful children. My kids are very active wanting a
partner to bounce and spin with them. I would want you convince me
that you are capable of doing this job to my satisfaction. In a
nutshell, we agree to be responsible for the purchase of your plane
ticket. I will like to know if you have a working permit and a valid
working visa that allow you work legally in Usa? I wait to read back
from you soon happy new year to you
