In my opinion its a joke. My brother sent 80 bucks and he was getting the exact same offer. Its been about 6 months and nothing. They'll send you the contract and after that they forget about you. To me its just a scam. They talk you into it then after they get your money they split. Whos sponsoring you because if its Sport Compact Pro there a joke. If it sounds for real go for it but my brothers sponsor was a joke. Just warning you before they take your money.

Everything needs to be in writing and completley legit. I wouldnt do anything untill you meet them face to face. It sounds great I know.. but got to be careful now-a-days.

Why would a company that was going to give you $15,000 need $80?
