Dear Lp15,
                 I just want to say sorry for the delay of time between
your last message and mine. I was very busy at this moment because I needed
to fix some things for Poem Illustrated. This way, I can clarify things with
you. First, I understand that you might be insecure by the fact that I'm
talking to you by e-mail. Today, the internet is the fastest way to
communicate with people. Also, I will send you an official letter signed by
the president of CBC (M.Rabinovitch) and me to confirm your doubts.
Unfortunately, you will have to wait about 3 weeks because it is an unusual
and extra task for me. Secondly, I can confirm that the website you will be
creating for us will be the official one. Two days ago, I have assisted a
reunion concerning this and the president agreed with my project.
M.Rabinovitch told me that we can't register the website now because it will
cost us money for the server but, as soon as the designer will be chosen, we
will create the website and of course, pay for everything. Thirdly, I don't
want to put you pressure, but I just want to tell you that all of the others
designers have already send us e-mail to tell us that they are starting the
website as soon as possible. If you want to be on time, the last date you
should give me the final copy of your website is on January the 20th. Good
work and if you still have doubts, just send me an e-mail.

See if he will allow you to contact other members (MSN screennames?) and talk to them privately to see if they really exist and are on board with the project. There are probably other steps that could be taken, I just can't think of them at the moment.

Just dont pay him any money or give your contact details out until you're reassured.

Well, the CBC is undergoing problems. They did just get back from lockout recently... so it could still be a real request.
as was mentioned above, don't give him any material until you are sure of who he is and what he's doing. Is the sending address a CBC domain? Also, why not phone up your local CBC station and see what they know, if this radio show really exists, and maybe go in a back door to see if this guy's real.

You can PM me some more info if you want, and I could call up CBC here in Hali if you want. I've dealt with one group before through my school, and seem really helpful


And as for a server, CBC has their own, so I have no idea of why they would need their own...

I agree dont pay him any money or tell him any details about you, it sounds like a trap. Also add those people on msn and talk to them and ask them stuff see if there real.


I Hope it works out for you.
