I don't know where to start on this, apart from saying that the Flint Trading Standards guy needs educating.

Glad to see that the recipient saw through the scam though. |

Very trying ! The words 'complacent' and 'naive' also spring to my mind. That said, they are probably to busy closing down businesses selling sheep in metric measures. |

Several months ago, a lad tried to catch me by posing as a US army sarge. It could be the same guy, but my lad was trying a shipping scam. He wanted to send me Hussien's family jewels that he found in some hole in the desert. It would have been more fun if he actually read what I wrote to him in response. He was clearly pasting standard responses to all of my correspondence without reading a darn thing. |

I've always paid for my sheep by the hour, not by the yard. |

Mwah ha ha ha!
I'm currently getting spam from Tesco, Ocean Fimance, and other UK businesses. Not direct, but from a UK spammer they've paid to spam the imaginary anthony@******.co.uk among others. All stopped by the commercial spam filtering service I pay for.
Are they bovvered? No. |
