Thanks for the update. I have no idea of your financial position or whether it forms part of the estate but if practical maybe you should save the auction fees and drink the last crate yourself.0

It never ceases to amaze me how people fall for these scams. I know a few people who've fallen for them but who'd I consider quite bright and worldwise!
One bloke fell for some dodgy bitcoin site. He'd already put in about £5,000 and was going to put in more - I warned him it was a scam, but nonetheless he went ahead and ploughed in anyway :eek:0 -
Thought I would post these links after getting a message from the police who investigated the scum bags who done this. Not sure if this is allowed but just wanted everyone to know that they were caught and scammed people for over £5.5 million - still think there are people out there that don't know they have been scammed. The company has now been put into liquidation but there are still the scammers out there saying they are helping you out with the Dow&Jones investment....DO NOT BELIEVE THEM....they are also scum bags.
