lets see what pin points this scam

a)12 noon and end up by 4 pm in the evening (dont most 23 year olds go clubbing for there birthday and since when do 23 yr olds have a disco in the afternoon LOL)

b) nice Musics, should be avaliable ( grammer error not very american like)

c)why should I want to know his daughters full name

d) no location given why not surely he wants a quote

I could go on & on

Ooh that would have fooled me!

so the fact that some muppet, halfway round the world is wanting you to DJ at a party in the afternoon that will only last about 4 hours doesn't set alarm bells ringing.

let's be honest here, the person who falls for this this email must be as stupid as the guy sending it if he seriously thinks some bloke from the UK is going to fly halfway round the world to do a kids party one afternoon when there must be at least a DJ's who lives a bit closer.

if you & i are thinking of the same person, i can only assume

a) he's already sent a quote
or
b) it's probably his gig & he's trying to farm it out to some unsuspecting mug.

Got this one as well---bit of a giveaway though when we are all used to receiving dozens of genuine enquiries each week--who on earth says--hows business?

The "english" is also pretty poor!

Sounds like its probably sent by an illegal immigrant in London!

i got one too.

So we set up some fake disco with some absurd name, saying his details had been passed onto this company, and emailed him a quote which was in the region of £5000 for the 4 hours, to call his bluff.

Thing is, he replied, and even gave a location in our home town. So we just ingored him in the end. A friend of ours had a similar sort of thing. After the first email, the spelling, and grammar just goes to pot, and its more obvious it's a scam!!
