So I've had an email from a dodgy character calling himself "George Osborne" and it's written in Comic Sans.
Still not 100% sure it's not actually him, TBH...

Wouldn't this be considered as politics? |

I've seen scammers pretend to be famous leaders, what kind of scam was this? |

Not politics. Lads often pose as politicians.

Welcome to Eater!
I had to look him up. I'm American and don't know much about British politicians. There are other people called George Osborne. Could you post the email? |

I think I still have it somewhere in one of my catcher accounts
An email from Primeminister Winston Churchill.....
I must say I felt a bit honoured.
An obviously out of touch lad...
or one with rather `special contacts' indeed
(seeing as he has been dead since 3 years before I was born!)
I often think they just google for famous people and use the name if it looks important- without actually checking the finer details. |
