Complaint   >> Posted: Mar 22 '07 by Jessica in New South Wales, Australia
Warning girls please read the attached letters I have received tis week & also may I suggest to ALWAYS have at least a phone interview with a host family & several emails before making a decision!! I was interested in the first one of these letters but luckily for me I did nothing silly before I received the 2nd letter & realised it was false!!!!

I'm almost sure these 2 emails are a hoax. I received both these emails within a few days of each other both claiming similar things, the letters are written so similarly & both offer to overpay without even speaking with the Au Pair first to see if they even like one another. Neither of them stated the site or locater number that they are from... Be careful of these emails....

The Albanian family this is posted as is a profile in Great Au Pair that has obviously been created by someone very bored that is just wasting Au Pairs time! It is so unfair for all the real families out theere & genuine Au Pairs that are honestly looking for a nice family! I received again today another letter in the same context as the first two, this is some hoax. Please see attached & please if receive anything similar don't be fooled.

I got ther same e-mail from the "Collins family" about a week ago. I knew that couldn't be right because no one would pay that much but I wrote to them and asked them a lot of questions such as when they would need me to start and questions about the children. They answered these questions but when I asked them why they have choosen me and asked for some pictures they didn't reply anymore...
So please when ever you get an e-mail without a locator number....ignore it (especially when they say they would pay you a very high amount of money each week because nobody is going to pay $900.00 USD per week,that's just too much)!!!!
