Err, I were thinkin' like... Does it work like this? Punter gets
interested, sends real money to forger. Forger does not reply (because
he isn't a forger at all). Punter can't very well go to the cops and
say, "I've send some money off to buy some forged banknotes and they
haven't arrived. Could you look into it please?"

of course. Even if they had forged notes, what would be the point in sending them once paid. They're plainly in the business of ripping folk off after all.

No idea but whatever it is, its just plain silly for the reasons you
mention. its hardly rocket science to come up with lots of scams this sort
of post is part of. I guess there really is one born every minute in some
place in the world.
Is it really any different to the dead Ugandan politicion with funds stuck
somewhere that the wife needs to get at?

No just deleted a whole load of duplicate spam from this group all about
fake money, and various witty replies from members, not wanting to be left
out, I merely added a new thread commenting on it. I did not expect anyone
else to add to the daftness or otherwise. I guess its like the please
ignore this post syndrome again. Its as we used to say, a red rag to a bull
who are mostly colour blind so never did understand the proverb.

Most of the bulls I have encountered are not really bothered unless you
deliberately upset them.

It is particularly confusing to those of us who have not seen any the
posts you refer to.

It is cows that are the most likely to attack, although the vets I used
to know never trusted Charolais bulls.

The red cloak is traditional in bullfighting

That depends on how many spears you have stuck in them

I was always taught that it's bulls with dairy cows that are the ones
to be careful of.

Unless you are working on the farm, you shouldn't be in a field that has
a bull of a recognised dairy breed that is more than 10 months old in
it. They are banned from fields crossed by public paths.

The figures for the years 2000-2015 shows that 18 members of the public,
all on public footpaths, were killed by cattle. One death is alleged to
have involved a bull, but this was not proven in Court. Ten involved
cows with calves. All but one walker had a dog with them and, with the
exception of one man who had wandered away from a family group, they
were all lone walkers or were accompanied by only one other person.

OTOH, half of the 56 cattle related deaths of farm workers involved a bull.
