|
|
Hi, my name is Chad Poore and I’m a college student working on a project based on thesamba.com. Would you be open to an interview on the phone that might take 20-30 minutes for $15.00? You must be 18 years old. I suck at notes, so I will record the call for going back over. If so, message me your name, number and a time (and time zone) to call you that works for your schedule. Thanks for your time.
Kind regards,
Chad Poore |

So… did you become a Samba member when you were 10 or are you a “professional” student? _________________ Everybody born before 1975 has a story, good, bad, or indifferent, about a VW.
GOFUNDYOURSELF, quit asking everyone to do it for you!
An air cooled VW will make you a hoarder.
Do something, anything, to your project every day, and you will eventually complete it.

Not to be so negative, but I would hesitate to divulge phone and other info without knowing a little more about this activity. Maybe a link to the entity (school? business?) that is running this assignment? Hopefully not the University of Nigeria... |

Forget the trekkies and Comic-Con cosplayers, what the hell is that super Beetle and Karmann Ghia trailer in the back ground? Holey Shamoley!

Hi Chad,
We here at the Samba are a cynical bunch. A little more info on your “Project“ would be helpful for us. I myself am kind of interested. What is this project?
I will agree that one post in 11 years seems suspect.

Where it involves thesamba.com I'm withholding all opinions until this thread is addressed by Everett B.
As it reads now- weird and suspect. _________________

He emailed me beforehand and asked permission to post it.
He said I could do it too, if I wanted.
Asking first and offering it to me too would be abnormal for something weird but I don't know anything further about this member or the interview. _________________ How to Post Photos

He PM'd contact info to me, I'll be a nice guy and call. I wager it's something along the line of what does an online community provide... _________________ my59: Well son, my grandfather died before I got to drive it, so does that answer your question?

I helped a high school student a few months ago because he had specific questions about the interior of a bug. He was doing a research paper for his forensics class in regards to evidence collection in the Ted Bundy case.
But I personally know the instructor, and she talked to me first and asked if it would be ok if the student contacted me.
I wouldn't be so keen to respond to a random post on the interwebs though. |

I only need some basic information such as your name, address, social security number, bank account and routing number.
Trust me... this info is already available on the interweb. _________________ Glenn

Eleven years a member and not one post until now? Color me skeptical.
Doubly so if he wants to pay in bitcoin. |
