I have seen warnings from people who advertise as music teachers.
their names were apparently found online and the scam "artist"
prceeds to attempt to convince them that there is someone who
is very rich who wants to take lessons from them..even offering
to fly them to the location...then they want to pre-pay a large
amount(forged check or money order) and then when they are not
able to make it, want the teacher to return some of the "money"
to them. who ever gave them the idea that music teachers were
rolling in money??!!
any way it also mentioned that here is a gal
who is on to the scammers
and plays along with them...Check this out http://www.bustedupcowgirl.com/scampage.html
