    My mother has worked in a bank for 30+ years and it's startling how often she tells me about people getting taken on these types of scams...especially the elderly. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!!

      You don't really want to bother with this one. Assuming it's HK dollars it's only a couple of million pounds.

      Not worth you gwetting out of bed for! :heehee:

      Blast..... My shed has been compromised. I shall have to let the dogs out on patrol now. The locals dont like that much, but I slip them a bundle of $ HK and it keeps them quite for awhile.
