  • Hi Toots
    I've just registered so that I acn reply to your message. I've just found out that my brother-in-law has been sending about £40 a month - for a long time - to a company in Oberreifenberg with a code on his Visa card of GSL_GB. He was told that it was a German lottery company and has even received a couple of small "prizes"
    He's spent a lot of money on it.
    Is there any possibility of getting this money back from the credit card company?
    Good post.
    Regards

  • I have just read your spill on the supposed mediums, clairvoyants ..etc..sending your dad letters and then Vital Mail and all of the other companies claining he has won 10k!
    Snap..for 2 and a half years i have been bombarded with letters and yes i must admit i have also sent off for talismen, secret rituals.. and even the lucky money pyramid! Although i have had full refunds - and reading your list of "mediums" i have received letters from all of them..at the moment Anthony Carr and Jackie Stallone are bombarding me 3-4 letters a day .....they have the same postal address - Vancuva CANADA!
    Maria Sarah - promised me to send me a 8k cheque to my house, a Talisman and a reading for the next 6 months.. only for £33.00!!
    I got 2 out of three..guess what didn't arrive ? Yep you've guessed it the 8k cheque ..In the letter though it clearly stated ..Please find enclosed 3 gifts i have promised you 1. a cheque for £8.000..etc...i wrote back to her and told he she is full of sh*t ...and have demanded a full refund.. i have yet had a reply! If anyone knows how to trace an e-mail address for her let me know!!
    From now on i throw all these letters away WITHOUT READING THEM ..yes i am strapped for cash, yes i have had a bad period in my life ..you don't need to be a meduim to say that to me.. i am 30 years old ...i am bound to have been through things - that is what they keep telling me oh i know your past, your present and future please write back to me and i will tellyou all. - i know my past too thanks very much!!...what i really hate is when they say ..if you do not respond to me within 7 days ..you will have very bad luck in your life as i have foreseen .gees thanks!
    I am not impressed with the amount of mail that still comes through my door,,then there is another company Delices and Gourmandies - In Belguim - they say you have won 15k , but in order to receive this money you must order from their range of biscuits, chocolates and treats ..a tin of biscutes are £10.00! what a rip off ..what a crock!
    I am not glad that it's happened to your dad ..far from it, but i am glad i can share this with someone that understands..life is hard anyway we don't need people playing with our minds or bank accounts !

    Do what I do, just return all the stuff not filled in, in the reply envelope, if it needs a stamp don't put one on.

  • My first post but not the first time I have checked it for scam info.
    Received Mr Carrs letter today and the return address this time is
    Anthony Carr
    PO Box 34012 Stn D
    Vancouver BC V6J 4MI
    Canada
    Not even a prepaid envelope.
    Offered a forecast for £4.95 with guaranteed money back!
    I may be old and daft but I'm not stupid.
    Made the mistake of ticking a box on a Facebook offer for 'Tara medium' 2 days ago and lo and behold what arrived in the post today. Will not make the same mistake again.;)
