419 Scam
Our company details are ripped off by some scammers who send out emails pretending to have "winnings" that need to be couriered to the winner. The winner must spend £x to get the cheque sent.
We've had emails, phone calls and even money from victims expecting to win. We've had one bloke ring up asking as he had already been stung 3 times by them and was getting a bit worried!
I've just spent the last 20 minutes speaking to a bloke who had flown all the way from KUWAIT in order to collect his winnings personally. He could not believe that he had been lied to...
Amazing!
