Not that uncommon Ken, I had this happen to me quite some time ago from 3 German students who were looking to visit Australia and see some of our night skies.
Admittedly they wanted to do it on the cheap and stay with me as well which they did i might add.
They got my name and home place out of the American Sky and Telescope Magazine, after i had submitted an artical about home built Observatories.
Our communication at the time was with letter only, so it was some time ago.
I even showed them the sights of Melbourne.
Probably very legitimate.
