Another SCAM Line Training

All

I believe this is another Frederic Gutterman website if you google for international line training and the site will appear.

Offer is 500 hrs in Indonesia / Philippines on the A320. Application fee is 960 Euros and then 19,000 euros after for the line training.

This person has had a number of sites and recently the one before this was Line placement A320.

I have been trying to annoy this guy by creating numerous email accounts and applying for the training and guess what each time it is a different offer. When i say i will put the money into a holding account and it will be released after the first week at the airline the person admits at the moment there is no slots and try somewhere else.

Please Please avoid this and the other schemes they are literally bending you over and giving you a royal shafting.

I am trying to get google to try and reveal where his logon to the email server is from as they will keep details of this information so that the authorities can arrest him.

Oh yeah he only accepts bitcoins to avoid transaction charges.... About as genuine as the lack of pilots against jobs claimed by training orgs...

Please post a link to the website!

I wonder how many people have paid the fee and have been scammed!

I don't want to ruin my karma, but I want to say - they deserve it.
And they do not deserve to be pilots.
If they are that stupid, that they pay with bitcoins to some random company... well...

I live in the Philippines and even if there were line training here available I'd suggest that it is a totally unsuitable country to perform it in with many of the regional airports being little more than jungle airstrips and often with no navigational aids and/or no airfield lighting and/or no fuel!

Pay to fly does not exist at the major philippine carriers , CAAP will not allow it!

It's becoming much more difficult to conduct a pay to fly scheme anywhere in the world, operators know this too, only people getting right seat airline jobs are cadets and MPL.

I agree the line training scams and 500 hour schemes are on there way out now. Pprune played a major part in creating awareness I might add....

Yes hopefully we are close to seeing the end of it

I hear eaglejet is now charging a very reasonable 87,500 euros approx and I also heard from one of my old course friends he was offered training in Tunisia for 83,500 euros....

mental how line training has increased from 35,000 USD to now somewhere 100,000 USD.... hopefully no one is barking mad to pay those prices and we can see these companies disappear

Are these guys actually getting the training after paying ? Or do they get scammed?

Skies aviation have been lying to people for ages saying " airbus line training is coming !" " pay now , in a few months you'll be flying a big jet " but nothing ever happens

Very sad for those who have paid ALL the money up front

That is not sad that they lost their money. It is exactly what they deserved.

glad to report the person doing the scam using

http://internationallinetraining.********.co.uk/ has now shutdown his blog.

What we need is one Thread with a title like scam training be warned to warn everyone off it.

If people just stop this paying bull and did it the right way we all might be in a better place .

I will now wait for his next blog and report that.

I am communicating with a couple more people using random email accounts to flush them out.
