This will probably amount to nothing as i suspect i am dealing with a scammer, see thread here : https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...

Basically, I want to be able to tell someone that i have a friend in Kilmarnock who can pop round to this persons house to pick up an Iphone for me..

That is very kind, thank you. I have not yet asked for the address, If it does actually exist,..I will wait for a bit to see if I get any more offers of help and get the whole area covered smile

OK, I will tell her i have a couple of mates down there that could easily pick it up, and see what her next move is. I suspect she will insist on me paying for her to ship it up to me smile

Bloody hell, she has only come back to me and given me an address and a time. I think this is actually a legit offer.

I would like to take this offline so I will PM you guys and see if we can work something out!

Looks like she is in a new build in Annandale.

Ok, so two of you have PM'ed me offering to help and then not responded to my replies.

This lady is still talking about a Sunday pick up but I can't really confirm anything with her.

To be honest though, I have never actually had a conversation with her, so for all I know this could still be a wind up..

We arranged for a local PH'er to go round at 10am this morning, then last night she said she had to go out at that time but the PH'er went at 9:30 and got no answer..

He will hopefully try again during the week (at her suggestion). I got no response to the suggestion that she could always just put it 'somewhere accessible' and he could pick it up even if she wasn't in..

I have also sent a padded Envelope with my address on so she could just post it to me once she gets that. I didn't put stamps on it just in case she steals them (!) but if you post a letter with no stamps the post office will just charge the recipient (me)..

So..we shall see!
