Is this so called "universal movie" legit?

Question

My dad has an old Volkswagen, and these guys claim to be universal and say they want his car in a movie, and they will pay him 300$ (-tax) a day, etc. They say they are shooting it in New Lebanon New York.

They gave an email ([e-mail])

and a phone number (914-346-7321)

IS IT LEGIT?

I NEED AN ANSWER ASAP, PEOPLE!

OR ELSE MY GULLIBLE DAD WILL BE SCAMMED OUT OF HIS BUS,300$, AND POSSIBLY MORE!

GET SEARCHING.

Answer 1

those things do happen -

my cousin had a 38 chevy that was used in some movies

your dad should ask for their credentials - ask for a contract -

and ask where the location of the movie shoot is - then drive the car there himself -

when my cousin rented his out - the movies were shot in the bronx and manhatten - in both cases he drove the car there and it was left in a parking garage along with others - when the shoot was done - he was called and he went back and picked it up

oh -yea - make sure they have INSURANCE!!!!

Answer 2

how far away is that town from where you live? - if it's close - just insist on him or someone he trusts driving to the set site each day and picking it up each night -=ask for references to call at Universal

Answer 3

Have them sign a contract that is notarized in their state.

Answer 4

Looks fine to me.  How will he be scammed out of his VW bus, if he's with it the whole time, as their ad says he must be to earn the $300?
