Guitar Teachers Beware of Email Scam

I just recieved the following email


I'm Mr James Andrew from paris, France.during my search for a singing and music intrunment teacher that would always take my son (Chris) and I found your advert..Your advert looks great and it is very okay to me since you specialize in the area i am seeking for him


My Son would be coming to UK (your city) Before the end of this month for a period of time and with his friend for 3 Months..he is just a beginner and he is 16 years old..i want you to help me teach lesson during his stay.

So kindly let me know your charges cost per week,in order for me to arrange for his payment before he travels down to your side.I have also made preparation for his personal equipment he will be using privately at home after the lesson during his stay.

Please Advise back on;

(1). your charges per 1 hour twice a week for 3 Months?
(2).The Day and time you will be available to teach him During the week?
(3).Tuition address?
I will be looking forward to read from you soonest.

Best Regards,
James



THIS IS A SCAM AS HE WILL SEND CHEQUE FOR TOO MUCH ASK YOU TO GIVE THE EXCESS TO HIS SONS GUARDIAN.  THE CHEQUE HE SENT WILL BOUNCE AND HES HOPING YOU WILL HAVE PAID THE GUARDIAN.


NOT A VERY GOOD SCAM.  BUT YOU'LL FIND YOU WAIST A LOT OF TIME THINKING IT WAS A GENUINE STUDENT WANTING LESSONS
