This is not a genuine au pair opportunity; it is a scam. You can read an identical email sent by the scammer calling himself Andrew F. Owens here:

Hello ,

How are you? Thanks for the reply to my job offer and the the interest my family.I would like to see your Curriculum Vitae(CV).Truly i need a foreign Nanny,i know that there are a lot of Nannies in UK here but its just that i need a Nanny from outside,Asia to be precise is caring,loving,motherly carefree and well determined,that can take good care of my kids for me but with the recommendation from you and that is the more reason I may need your services,hopefully you will be my kid's Nanny and do according to your words. I reside in Lambeth,London and do not get worried about any documents(work Permit and Visa),a travel agency here in the UK will handle that for you as per your visa just scan&send the copy of your international passport and CV through email to them,they will apply for visa on your behalf in the UK Home Office and when the visa is ready the UK Embassy in your country will call on you so that they can endorse the visa on your original passport.If you have any other traveling agency you could also use that.I work because of them and I love my kids so much and would not toy with them.They are the apple of my eyes.im willing to pay any amount to give them the best in the world.You would be needing to settle the Visa Procurement yourself because i paid for 2 Nannies and the past few months which they did not turn up but went somewhere else after their visa was approved and that is why i vowed that any Nanny that i will employ will make half of expenses by himself/herself.Hope you understand how i mean.I need a very serious person and the job is available right now.Also,i use to have a Nanny that came from Asia(Filipino or Indonesian) and she spent 2 years with us,but she got married and relocated to the United states,so i need a replacement ASAP. Don't worry about the United Kingdom,it's a nice place to stay and i hope you will enjoy staying here with my family and you will have the access to internet, In fact i have a personal PC at home for myself but my kids usually play games on their own PC, i will get you a computer to start using for your own use.All expenses made by you will be refunded immediately you get here.If you would be using the travel agency i would be recommending my traveling agent to you. Do get back to me as soon as possible and we take it from there Regards,
