In the magazine I got free with the local newspaper, there was an article by a woman who, when her sister fell on hard times, let her come and do the accounts for the business she and her husband ran. You can guess what happened can't you given that the sister had 4 holidays per year, cooked the books to the tune of £16,000, didn't even apologise in court where she got sent down. When the woman asked her sister why she did it, she just said because I could. Thing is that the couple had to dip into their savings to pay the staff one month and that is how they found out

Sure, I will get my uncle the ex finance minister of Nigeria to contact you for your bank details. We need loads of cheese here just send your bank details and we will pay £1000's per kilo for it.

You have to be so careful.

I got a call from a car insurance company last week. She knew my name and said she was from the company I am actually with.

She was clearly trying to sell me something and she said "before we go further can you confirm your name, house number, post code and car registration number please"?

I said, "if you are who you say you are, you already have those details".

She said "I'm sorry I can't help you if you won't confirm your details"!

I said "help me? I haven't asked for help, you called me"!

Her response? She hung up!

I don't give any details out over the phone, I shred everything and am careful with Internet purchasing but I still had my credit card cloned and they spent 3k on it!

Thankfully the credit card company wiped it from my statement.

Trust no one I say!
