    Sadly and amazingly yes

    If no one ever fell for them the would disappear

    I remember reading of a GP in Rotherham losing thousands of pounds on one - for some reason he didnt want his name disclosing though

    They asked for $5000 up front to facilitate the payment or summat, then hit a snag and needed another $10000 etc- I think he had thrown away over £50000 before he finally cottoned on
