    I’m questioning why an American is lurking around on these forums, posting threads of this type? This feels as though it would be more at home on Twitter/X

    I'm questioning why so many people are answering.

    There used to be a member called Jack Cork who posted similar pointless questions like this.
    Didn't he eventually lose his bottle ?

    Many years ago did Calais to Rome (via Paris) by train. Took 24 hours. The steam engine pulling the train was changed five times in total. On the French/Italian border got out and had a snowball fight.

    I have also had a snowball fight on that border. Sadly, steam engines were no more by then (1980).

    Look at the OP's threads. They ask specific questions and do not return to them.

    Is it just me or are they looking for sensitive details that could be passwords?

    I thought the same. But I'm not sure how they will relate the information to a particular person, so it can only be one part of the scam. 

    Be careful out there people!
