It is a scam.

The person who is writing to you is not the person listed on the FIFA website.

He is using a +44 70 redirect number ,which a UK based person would not do. He also is unable to hide his poor understanding of English culture, even though he is using script.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.

Not to mention they didn't even do enough research to name the right company.

Company No. 05305019


The fax # matches the one on the FIFA website, there is no phone # on the FIFA website. You have an impersonator that sent you a scam letter.
Here is a good article about +44-70 and similar #'s that scammers love to use, if your interested in learning more about them ( and possibly save yourself massive money, so you don't ever dial them--)

This impersonator also seems to live in the USA (FL) http://www.zoominfo.com/s/#!search/prof ... id=profile

has a yahoo address as well : [email protected] and this fake site : http://barkersoccerhome.blogspot.com

one page in Russian : http://www.kakvo.org/ptext/az-sam-barka ... e23487enbg

and this scam ad : http://www.soccerclub.com/events/baeker-simon which only wants $450, but it also says he hasn't updated that page since 2011. I guess his scam prices for medical insurance that does not exist have gone up in 3 years.

Besides the 44-703 numbers, the writing is clearly not that of an English person, and could be that of a Francophone or a West African (or a Francophone West African, of which there are many).
