SCAM! Genuine Simulations A380

Just a heads up to let everyone know that they should avoid this obvious scam by a company calling itself Genuine Simulations and claiming to sell an A380.

Apparently all the pics have been taken from another developer and most of the text from the PMDG 777 product page.

I wouldn't even risk going to their website as who knows what nasties they have lurking there.

There is a post over at AVSIM which goes into the details about the scam:

Andreas AKA "hasegawa" PM'd me this morning as well ...

Hi Ian,

this is urgent, because it may a big thing of Copyright Violations and online robbery. Hope, You can inform all the fellow members of your forum.

There is a "new" Airbus A 380 on the market.

It seemed, that this one is only a fake, no real product is behind this site!

http://www.genuinesimulation.com/

The 89,99 Dollar for the new product is only a trick, to get money. Look at the Site! There are some "Screenshoots" on this site coyrightet form my friends from "nextlevelsimulations." They are working on an Airbus A380. The "features text" on this side looks in parts as copied from Aerosoft Airbus extended.

Behind all of this we have "extracted" a name: Ardeshir Zahedi. Maybe a fake. it seemed he´s from Shiraz, Iran. But I have followed his footsteps on the internet and found him in Canada, USA, and maybe Sweden, but this must be verified. He has its fingers also in

http://secure.simmarket.com/century-wings.mhtml
Here he looks like a Canadian under the Label "Century Wings", no products at the moment.

He is the owner from

www.realcockpit.com

Maybe the people at this site have no idea about this.

It seemed very dubios.

Telling the the people not to buy this Airbus A380 may be a good idea Ian, but you know, my English is not the best.

The complete story (in German) is here:

It is a forum from good friends in Austria.

Sorry Ian, I am in a hurry.

Best regards

Andreas
