That I can do, but the rest of the story absolutely stinks I'm sorry to
say.

I'm sure I'm not the only one thinking this but most no doubt will be
too polite to say it and will ponder in silence.

I might suggest too much of a Nigerian scam tone to it. And would
suggest anyone nearly contemplating a sympathetic leaning towards the
post be very very cautious.

Preying on peoples inner nature and protection of anothers siblings.

I've seen many a similar scam letter but this really has to be the best
to date.

In fact, normally I would just ignore such posts, but something deep
inside is telling me that this really _is_ something that everyone needs
to ignore and NOT give way to any emotional manipulation caused by this
very cleverly worded scam.

As for A Cheshire county council owning a a small business well, that
HAS to be the biggest give away.
Then there's the bit about it being posted to "police and legal groups"
FFS. It's a mass mailing to hit serveral thousand readers and offers an
easy way to pay money via pay-pal and bank transfer.

It absolutely STINKS and I hope the purpetraitor (sp) get's exactly what
he/she deserves.


Also a "Mr Blue Sky" posts on an anti-fraud site publicizing such scams,
including ones from a Paul Jones (aka Greg Allen perhaps also aka Paul
Smith?). Getting his own back?
