I am selling my Commander and have been contacted by this person.  I feel I would be foolish if I did not use every source available to check the validity of this individual.  

Do any of you have any knowledge of is person or business entity.

Bill,Be very careful about giving out an account number.  There have been scams that suck money out of your account even if you think they are going to send you money.

Set up a separate account to receive money into that has a 0 balance.



Never accept a check form overseas.  Only wire transfer.  Then wait for 2 weeks to make sure it clears.



Nigeria has a very bad reputation for the Nigerian 914 scam.  " I have $25,000,000 dollars in this account and you can have 20% but you need to send me $300,000 to pay the fees."  If is sounds too good to be true, it is a scam to separate you from your money.

Bill, I can't find it but and my memory is the  worst but I remember something about a scam where they would buy the plane and  when you went to cash the check it was no good. Be sure you have cash in your  pocket before they get the plane.

Thanks gents. That makes it easier.    

I think the best thing for “the captain” to do is to take spelling lessons and get an American broker.

Above all, don’t give them a bank account number or give in to small fee demands to pay for so-called taxes or ‘hand grease’. The scammers are oftentimes in cahoots with corrupt bank officials who clear out your account and then you have to pursue them in Nigeria, which is something you don’t want to contemplate. I would seriously doubt this lead, but if you wish to pursue this “Captain”, then solicit the services of AOPA or some other reputable intermediary who has the clout to make sure your transaction goes through without hiccups. AOPA may even have members in Nigeria who could be an invaluable resource.   

   

Chances are when a strong contingent of your team is introduced the “captain” would disappear off the face of the earth.

 Good advice on the intermediary...

Dear Bilbo,

 Don’t be fearful of all ‘overseas cheques’...you will only get good ones from downunder here.

Hi All,

  

 Well, I suppose nowadays "you will only get good  ones from downunder here" is probably true, but don't forget that we used to  send all our convicts 'down under'.

 Traits could still linger in the genes

Russell,  

   

Did you bid and/or look at this 685 that was up for auction down under a week ago?  My associate Michael  Pont and I were interested but got into the game too late to inspect.  Do you know anything about this plane pros or cons?

 Above all, don’t give them a bank account number or give in to small fee demands to pay for so-called taxes or ‘hand grease’. The scammers are oftentimes in cahoots with corrupt bank officials who clear out your account and then you have to pursue them in Nigeria, which is something you don’t want to contemplate. I would seriously doubt this lead, but if you wish to pursue this “Captain”, then solicit the services of AOPA or some other reputable intermediary who has the clout to make sure your transaction goes through without hiccups. AOPA may even have members in Nigeria who could be an invaluable resource. 

  

 Chances are when a strong contingent of your team is introduced the “captain” would disappear off the face of the earth.

 Bill, I can't find it but and my memory is the worst but I remember something about a scam where they would buy the plane and when you went to cash the check it was no good. Be sure you have cash in your pocket before they get the plane.

 Good    Morning Bilbo,   

Does anyone have an STC to hang a couple of IO-550s on the    500 Commander?     

Since those engines are generally the same or lighter    weight than the 470s. it would seem to be a win win situation.    

We have found the 550 to be a tremendous engine when stuck    in a Bonanza to replace the 470. I would imagine they would make the 500 into    a light weight skyrocket. We regularly find that the 550 equipped    airplanes will get there faster and burn less fuel than they did with the    470s.   

Happy Skies,

Hi All,  

    

   

    

Well, I suppose nowadays "you will only get good ones from downunder here" is probably true, but don't forget that we used to send all our convicts 'down under'.  

    

Traits could still linger in the genes   

    

   

    

Best Regards,

There is virtually no world in which this guy is legit.  Be wary also of "cashier's-check" scams, whereby the guy shows up with a round-number cashier's check worth more than the transaction ("I wanted to make sure there was enough to cover all possible fees") and asks for a cash refund.  The cashier's check will clear in your account, then the funds will be removed a few days later when the bank figures out it's not legitimate.   Also, as other's have warned, do not give bank-account details, even for inbound wire-transfers....once they have the account #, they are only one step away from clearing you out.

    

   Nigeria is world renowned for these scams....there's even a penal code for them (can't remember...something like "614").

The Colemill  with IO-520 is the only one I’m aware of.  There were not enough 500As built to get any interest in an STC going.
