Is this a scam or legit?
 
Hi guys,

I need your advice.
I just got an email from mister John Miller, an Internet Marketing Executive who wants to advertise on my website.
We mailed back and forward 3 times.
He says he would like a textlink on my mainpage which leads to an articlepage containing 2 links to his adultsite and one general link like Wiki, BBC or About.
He gave me 2 url examples for these articlepages: fuckedmachine and bootyfucked d0T c0M
Asked for his website's url to which he replied: WorldSex d0T c0M
But he emailed me with a Gmail account and the whois data for the 3 sites above aren't the same.
On top of that he never asked questions regarding my traffic and he wants to make a deal for one year of advertising.
I find it all very fishy.
I phoned with WorldSex but they already closed for the day.
Will call again tomorrow.
But in the meantime: what do you think? Is this a scam or is he legit?
Anyone got similar emails?
Here's the first email he sent me:

It's my pleasure to let you know that I am interested in gaining a few text links from your website mysite.com .

I work for a number of sites vary from Adult, Porn and given the similarity with the content of your site , I feel it would great to discuss about the advertisement prospect.

I will provide all required information, as well as the link text and the URL. It would be great to hear back from you about this.

Given the less than stellar grammar in the quote you provided, even if it was legit, I don't think I would do business with them. But it sounds like a typical scam email to me.
