I received a rather alarming e mail yesterday. It informed me that payment had been received from my paypal account to the tune of US $1950.00 for a product purchased from what I can only describe as a left handed website which I had never heard of until yesterday.
Now this product, which shall remain anonymous came in an extra large size and my only other clue is that it can't mow the lawn, get a round of drinks in or do your housework. Does anyone know what it is yet?
Needless to say that I was quite perturbed at having the above amount taken from my account so I have contacted the bank and my credit card company. They have assured me that nothing has been taken from my accounts and I did give them a laugh at the bank when I explained what it was.
Even if this product was encased in gold and delivered to the UK by supersonic jet it would not cost that much. Honestly I had visions of the postman putting his back out trying to ram this thing through my letterbox.
I have put this down to yet another Paypal scam. Has anyone else supposedly bought anything which has prompted a similar e mail, or is it just me??????
