Has abyone been involved with future music academy Sheffield?

Hi, I was recently in Open Mic and approached by a music scout from Future Music and asked to attend an audition for a music academy in Sheffield. This is to be held once a month and I would only be asked to cover "some costs" however no figure was given. I'm just wondering if anyone has attended such an academy and I believe there is also one in the south of England. I have read a lot about Open Mic & Live & Unsigned being scams and just wondered if this the same?

Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

Looks like it was/is/or is about to revive itself as a scam...

I'd steer clear of any "offer" that asked you to "cover some costs": it just smells if they can't tell you how much they expect you to pay.
