A total of 36 hrs.
We want to entertain the guests as well as family members that would
be attending the 50th wedding anniversary of my
parents. The dancers are all in INTERMEDIATE level. What kind of
dances do you teach? We need dance classes/private
lessons like Belly,Tango,Latin,Ballet as well as Salsa, Swing and
Ballroom.ANY of the above can serve.
Do you have a training studio/facility where you conduct the classes?

The group would be performing for a group of family members over
there. I would love you to get back to me with the
Grand total cost or a quote/estimate. What are your charges and

Re: more fishiness (is that a word?)
Thu, June 4, 2009 - 12:11 PMits been my experience that emails such as this are hoax/fraud emails. I garentee that if you replied with a positve response indicating that you were interested, the next email you get will be along the lines of asking for information that will enable them to directly deposit funds into an account of yours. Of course, they then really use this info to steal funds from your account.
I get these kinds of emails several times a week and have learned to ignore them. Rule of thumb, if it sounds to good to be true, it is :-)
Good for you for listinging to your instincts and following up on this.

Thu, June 4, 2009 - 2:44 PMA good rule: a real person e-mailing me is never this organized. *LOL* A funny way to tell scam from truth, but it works. -

Thu, June 4, 2009 - 2:44 PMMaybe organized isn't the right word, but... clinical, on top of things, just so. You know what I mean. -

Sat, June 6, 2009 - 11:53 PMI get emails like this quite often.... I figure it's a hoax... if it was true they would say where they saw you, maybe why they want to take so many lessons from you in particular.... something personal....
