I wonderif/when the despoiler of all our fun over the past 48 hours turns up on the boards again, will they be expecting a "welcome back" - I donlt think so

We had so much innocent [and yes, very childish] fun on here - canlt remember when I laughed so much - my sides were aching - we could all do with a good laugh what with the present econmic climate and cutbacks on everything but someone obviously doesn't agree

we can only speculate on who the culprit is but one day we may wlll find out for sure - I do hope so

Ann....l'm sorry but you are indicating someone who is not here and you know darn well that l and many others can guess who you are indicating!! Out of order, this thread is about scams, one l saw on my email, not anyone l or you know.
If this continues l'll delete the thread...simple.

Off out now.

Re: Banks...ask them to prove they are who they say they are, if they're real they panic, if not they hang up pdq :-D
I always go to my local branch to tell them, it gives them a chance to stop scams.

Sorry Jude,
Hope you don't mind me adding as
I know this an old one, the Foreign sounding gentleman called Paul, or John, whatever they want to be known as that day,
Says he is phoning about Computer Wizard and that I am registered with them as I may have fault on the PC being used in my house...

Yeeeaahhh !
Like as if I'd fall for that one.

Just for peeps to know it's doing the rounds again.
