Whilst am on the site - just to confirm - this issue has gone away - thank you for all the advice given - when it happens to you - its very easy to be skeptical of advice given by strangers - reassurance is needed at first - but am thankful I listened! Cheers

Thanks for coming back and just confirming what we bang on about here, and that is to ignore the scammers and it's borne out with you. Another success story to go with all the others

If you feel like that, I would recommend paying. Then you can sleep at night and not worry anymore about losing your house and other stuff that's never going to happen.
