Hello Anthony,
You were right!. That was a fasinating piece of history. I never really knew much about Winston Churhill before now. Just waht world history taught.
I have another "scam" you can make others aware of. It's not e-mail, but something worse.
To those who use " Online Auctions ",
Watch out for a buyer that uses name " big-joe-stores". Not only isn't he a ligitimate buyer, ( many reports of non- payment), but he is running " International scam"!!!
When he buys things online, he wants to pay "more" than selling price, and then wants seller to "western union the balance of $$$ to him (usually overseas}.
This is not a hoax on my part. I have been trying to sell a stove for some friends of the family who recently moved to Florida. This is being done on yahoo Auctions. This "buyer" bid on the "sale price ($500.00) and payment came to my mailing address yesterday. " In the form of 3 international money orders. Each one was for the sum of $850.00, we're talking 5 times the selling price.
If I haven't learned anything from my 12 years driving truck over the road, it's that no way in the world is it going to cost $2,000.00 to ship a stove.
When I saw these money orders, I immeadiately became suspicious. Took them to my bank and had branch manager look at them. She immeadiately told me ," We wouldn't even touch them", and suggusted I contact local law enforcement. During that part, the officer told me these money orders were COUNTERFIT.
Please make everyone aware of this " Very dangerous scam"
your friend
