Latest Scam

[mark costello 1Participant @markcostello1]

Some business have started up in the Southern USA that buy wild pigs and process for food, Sounds like a win-win, not for the hogs but They don't post here anyway,

Pigs are such nice animals, we used to keep them in the parlour over here, years ago.

So they said, anyway.

Seems likely that we cannot manage boats or boars!

I had thought initially that it should be BOAT, but steered clear of that as it is political and would probably end in the post being closed. Besides the post concerning boars has, I think, enlightened a few. Plus I have learnt something with regard to the problems wild pigs / hogs are causing in other countries.

Here’s another from my daughter involving text message from strange number

hi mum Iv lost my phone and I’m stuck without funds please will you send me ……xyzzys……….. Iv had to borrow a phone to send you this………

my granddaughter is 4 and needless to say she can’t text or could loose her non existent phone

We had the reverse situation of this a few years ago. We were on holiday abroad & the apartment was burgled, ipad/phones etc taken. I sent my daughter a text message from the people next door's phone, asking her to block our phones. She replied to the text saying she didn't recognise the number & asked the sender to prove who they were i.e. me. I sent her another text with the name of her boyfriend & my DOB. Since then, we have a family password to identify each other in case a similar situation arises in the future. very simple but effective.
