      Not the banks fault though, in fairness.

      Did you ever follow up with them? Applies more to the 401 scammers, but its fun to tag them along for a bit if you have nothing better to do..

        I got a response from a scammer saying how he didn't appreciate being given wrong numbers to call. All because I got him to call Oldham police asking for Mr PC Pig.
        Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

        I preferred version 1!

            Is that a discounted 419 scam? Are the Indians undercutting the Nigerians now?
            How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
