They have no pictures of any of their big names actually being with them. There is no way they are legit.

It was updated 3 days ago. They have a press release on their main page dated wed 18th July 07. I know what you mean though, it doesn't look as professional as you would expect. I've googled them and they do have quite a web-presence. It says on wikipedia that they have been around since early 90's.

Star Mega Jam also want to be your marketer and Distributor in Africa. They have offered to pay you the sum of $30,000 for this and as your Agent, we need to know your interest in this'.

Firstly, as far as I'm aware, I do not have a profile with Kennis music. And secondly, Kennis music are not my agent, but they are claiming to be.
It looks suspicous, but the Kennis music website looks genuine enough. And if it's a scam then why are they offering to PAY me $30,000, by cheque!?!

As steve.h said, it's most likely a scam. They'll offer to pay you $30K, but in doing so, they'll clean your bank account out, because there will be "fee" after "fee" after "fee".

Sounds a lot like the Nigerian 419 Scam.

Dude I don't know what your problem is. I won the UK lottery three times last month. The checks will be here any day. Plus my penus (sic) enlargement pills are on the way now that I can afford them.
