smashlee 0 #2 May 4, 2014 The same person contacted me in response to an ad that I posted on the Australian Parachute Federation website. I cannot confirm that he is a scammer as I have not responded. The email, identical to the email posted, sounded dodgy so I thought I'd google him first. Cheers!
