This would normally have gone in the Goofy Crap thread in General, but this one's a doozy.

I received an ATM card letter and told the Lad(ette) that s/he needn't bother, that General Nu55a had taken charge, and:

Quote:

You snooze, you lose, girlie.

Next thing I get a message from the next stage of the ATM scam! It began:

Quote:

The message you sent to Mr.Johnson of atm department has been received by us.

(Which of course I hadn't sent)

I wrote back:

Quote:

There's been a mistake. I didn't write to Mr Johnson at any time. Major-General Nu55a has been tasked with this business; Ms C0le has obviously forwarded my details to you against my wishes.

The Lad replied in... well, somewhat overdone mode:

Quote:

Sir,
Maybe you do not know that you are chasing shadow by sending that kind of message.What on earth will warrant you to tell me that a gesture done by Mrs.Cole to save you from an impending doom over your fund was against your wishes.This is unbelieveable.
We live to see the outcome of your decision because you will realize your mistake in due time.
Management.

Maybe instead of a trunkbox, they have the money inside the chest that holds the Holy Grail, hence the impending doom if you open it, ask them about that Very Happy

I was thinking that maybe when you used the ATM card, a 16 ton weight dropped on your head.
