<p>I got this and it seems legit but who knows??</p>

<p>"Here is your chance to be a star!</p>

<p>As you know, we will never sell your email address or personal information to anyone. But we have just been asked by ABC Television Network and Bunim-Murray (producers of "The Real World" and "Road Rules") to help them in their national casting search for high school seniors to appear in a new 2005 reality show called "The Scholar." It will be the first reality show ever to celebrate higher education as the ultimate prize. Here's the scoop:</p>

<p>Fifteen qualified high school seniors -- who might not otherwise have an opportunity to pursue a college education -- will compete for a full ride scholarship to the college of their choice. They will have to demonstrate excellence in the areas of academics, leadership, school spirit and community service. Sounds cool, right?</p>

<p>Check out the info and apply for your chance to be on "The Scholar" and potentially win a scholarship! Good luck!</p>

<p>Sincerely,</p>

<p>Sincerely,
Mike O’Brien"</p>

<p>if you gotta pay some sort of fee when you apply (even if its only $1) then its a scam....or if they ask for personal information like s/s#, address, etc.</p>

<p>if not, i guess go for it if u want a chance to be on TV. nothing to loose.</p>
