Re: scams? (by Sonia R.):
I just returned from the UK where I was a victim of a scam. I rented an apartment at Carlton Court in London for the week of June 27 - July 4. The address I was given was partial Carlton Court and Partial a private residence. I rented the apartment from the name John Green who had me send a MONEYGRAM to his accountant Steven Moore whose address turned out to be a museum. After spending 5 hours at the local police station we were the victims of fraud, no place to stay and suitcases in hand. The police warned us never to use a MONEYGRAM. A case has been filed but we were told this is a hopless case as it happens all the time. Canadians and Americans seem to be targeted as address given to us is hard to varify. SO BEWARE. S DeJong
