Question I had this email this morning, total boll0cks??

This arrived in my inbox from my other half this morning and looks like yet another scam email but I thought I'd run it past you lot incase it gets adapted to where you live It sounds like a load of crap to me but you never know.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was the boss of Lisa's friend it happeneded too and someone who she
works with has a brother who works at the Slough Cop shop and he has
confirmed it to be real. Spread the word!
Terrorist attack in Slough 4th/5th December (Apparently)
My girlfriends boss who was in Slough High Street yesterday picked up a
wallet that she saw a bloke drop and picked it up and started shouting at
him to stop so she could give the wallet back to him.
He finally stopped and gave the walet back and he then said thanks and
offered her some money from the wallet and she said no. He then said please
take the money and she said no again. Then he said I feel I should repay
you for your honesty and told her not to be in Slough on the 4th/5th od
december because there will be a terrorist act.
She went to the police and they checked CTV cameras and found out the guy
was a well known terrorist.

The police are taking this matter seriously, sp please be warned!

This has been kicking around since 9/11. iirc there is now also a joke version (ie Stay away from Slough on 4th December...... Why - will there be an attack.......No - its just a sh1thole etc etc)
