[AV8TR70]

Hey guys check this email that was in my mail box this morning:

Dear Sir,
Thanks for your interest.

With reference to your information given,you dont have a Embraer 170 family type rating.

But you do have required hours of flight time and experience.

If you are interested you need to pay a security deposit of US$ 1500 for type rating with the application.

Please revert back to me with your CV,log book and medicals so that we can send you the application form and banking details.

Waiting for your quick and urgent response.

Thanks,

Best Regards

Capt Digvijay Singh

$1500 to apply?

$1500 to apply and "Capt Dig Vijay Singh" definitely smell like scam to me.

Sounds legit to me. I'd send the money.

Isn't that a pro golfer?

Who was sponsored by another scam artist, (Sir) Allen Stanford...........

The money isn't ACTUALLY for Capt Digvijay Singh, he does; however, have a distant relative in Nigeria whose estate has been frozen by the authorities.

Once the Nigerian banking problem is all cleared up (using your $1500), the family estate money will be released and the Indian airline will be on it's way.

It is all above board, happens all the time in this part of the world...

Probably best if you make the check out to CASH to avoid any trans-border complications.

Good luck!!
