Right, story is this.

Ave got no cash init. Benefits are gash. Wanna big 52" tellie in ma livin room so a can leave ma curtains open an let a ma mates see it. init

This bloke phoned me on ma i-phone (paid fur through the dole money init) and offered me like, £20 grand. Only he said that all I had to do was pay one payment of £250 through UKASH and then they'd send me the £20k.

I said a couldny afford to pay any back and he said no problem I am still ok to have the dosh.

Anyone ever heard of this? Is it pure cosher like?

    I cannot see how this could possibly be anything other than a legitimate company with a social conscience and an overwhelming desire to aid mankind. Please post a link so that I can send them all my money as well... ;)

    I haven't laughed so much in ages. Thank you for brightening up an otherwise very dull day. My favourite line...'Benefits are gash'...very delicately put sir!
