You'd think the BMW centre would look a bit nicer than that

I had a paper round around there as a kid.

Yeah mate if you could. I would like it black with black leather and blacked out windows just like a "real" BMW.

Its funny I pass the BMW head offices everyday, I only opened this because I know people who work there, and yet its a very diffrent address, How very very strange?

Really? Me too

Lived at the bottom of Empingham Road, and did the free paper run more or less round those parts (heady heights of, dunno, was it 3 or 4 quid a week?).

For the bloke to give his full address is stupidity! Surely we can find a local PHer to ping a brick through his window?

Err ... careful ... this is a clearly fraudulent email and you want to trust any of the details in it?

The phone number given (070...) is, according to Wikipedia, a "personal numbering" number which I think makes it non-geographic ...

[Scraggles]

use the headers to find his isp and get him removed from it and his webmail account

pretty sure it is against TOS for all ISP's not to spam people

as for his address, recall there is some sites on the net where you can get free magazines to your house

0703 are redirects to almost any country.... my guess is nigeria
