wayfarer January 5, 2006 Share wayfarer Member January 5, 2006 (edited) Wow, I thought that was cleared up! BEWARE! I have seen this before. This EXACT same thing happened in Toronto 5 years ago. My boss got a letter stating the exact same thing. He threw it away. About a month later it was all over the news. This is a ring of people that get your personal info. They then use that info to take out credit cards & small loans, then bolt. This is not funny, A LOT of people got into financial trouble because of this. I think you should report it to the police immediately BGB! *EDIT* I really dont have pleasant things to say about these people using the Lord like that at the end!! Trust me, call the police!

Decoy January 5, 2006 Share Decoy Member January 5, 2006 Sheesh.. And I thought it was bad to have a bank account that my parents don't know about. (They refused to give me the right to be the only owner of my bank account for college, so I opened a new one and just transfer the funds in...)

farmerisme January 5, 2006 Share farmerisme Member January 5, 2006 For anyone reading this that may not know much about real life, or can not understand jokes... if you ever see this sort of thing ignore/delete etc. Even empty bank accts can mess you up. Negative balances, credit ratings, personal information gleaned from the acct are only a few problems. I assume 99.9 percent of people reading this know this... but...

Bubblegum Bandit January 5, 2006 Author Share Bubblegum Bandit Member January 5, 2006 Yeah, I suppose I should post a disclaimer. This is obviously a hoax. I think there is a post on here somewhere from long ago that led to a site devoted to messing with the scam artists that were doing this. It was a bit different story line, but obviously the same sort of ploy. That's why I asked if anyone else had gotten this yet, seems another round of them are going around.
