Dear Andrew,
I've just received via SEELANG and mailbase.uk lists the message on help
request from this person in Russia:
Valentin Mikhaylin
Ryleeva Street, 6-45
Kaluga. 248030
R u s s i a.
I am afraid it's a CON message, as we previously received several messages
from the same person in our language school. He once offered co-operation in
sending students to study in UK, then -sending documents to Russia by special
delivery via their company as by regular mail there was no guarantee because
of the corruption at the post offices in Russia.
Do you think you can forward this warning to the mail list members?
I would support the idea of helping Russians but I don't want any conmen to
take advantage of people's generosity and trust. Unfortunately, there are
still enough 'businessmen'of this kind in Russia.
With kind regards
Marina Burrell
RuSS Chair, Cambridge
