For Alex R

I got this scam email this morning… I made the not exactly huge assumption it is not really you, since you can speak and write English and are in Australia at the moment. It came from alex.rossiter@gmail.com. If this is one of your email addresses, then I guess you’ve been hacked.

Sorry for this strange request, as it could get to you too urgent, but it is only because of the situation of things now, I’m stuck in London,
I came here on vacation, I was robbed, the worst of this is that the bags cash and cards and my phone was stolen at gunpoint point,
it is an experience so crazy about me, I need help to fly back home, the authorities are not being 100% support, but the good thing is that we still I have my passport, but do not have enough money to get my plane ticket back home, please I need to borrow money, will return as soon as I’m back home, I promise.

If he really was stuck in London, not having money to buy a ticket wouldn’t exactly be a problem right now…

Actually the flights are going again now last I heard

They are indeed, and plus he knows people who are currently IN London he could be asking for help…

Try reading this in a Nigerian accent, it’s way funnier.

Alex got our messages via FB and managed to regain control of his account.

One of the many reasons why I hate people. :imp:

Ah well, Sydney has mostly been good to me other than that. Hope everyone is doing well back home. Miss you all.
