Through the Lens - CLOSED

3 good reasons to vote YES by Dominic Lee

(1)   The party of ex Bank Robbers, Murderers and Drug Dealers want you to vote NO

(2)   All the parties who have ever held office since the foundation of The State are “YES” united

(3)   Imagine having a client who has been throwing money at you for the past 30 years, now they want you to sign up to their new regulations. Do you think they will continue to do business with you if you tell them to stick it where the sun dont shine?

 

Vote YES this Friday.

The scam artists are as busy as ever! By Dominic Lee

The words in brackets are my only additions:

Good day,
I`m miss Melisa, further to our wedding preparations between i and my fiancé Jim in GLASGOW, in the month of December. We are looking for a good photographer who will come and snapshot (Snapshots- that's me out for a start!) our proposed event. We were highly impressed on your web page and we hope to have the best of your services. At this time, we are leaving for Cardiff on a pre wedding honeymoon (ye dirty jezebel, I wouldnt take your snap if ye paid me!).
We would require to have the list of your available dates between 18th-19th of December 2009 (Sorry I'm booked out bewteen the 18th & 19th Dec. I sleep at night!).

Let me know your charges for your services if you are to work for at most Six Hours on that day. We require the below.

: 200 copies of photographs
: All colored (I wonder if it's ok that the photographer is White!)
: 5 x 7 in size
: Albums required

The 200 copies covers the bride and the bridegroom, their parents, the officiating ministers and our guests. If you can out, we will pay the transportation charges to and from the party venue. Please indicate in 
your email if you out, what it will costs either via Plane or through Car transport to 180 Hope Street, Glasgow G2 2UE, GLASGOW, SCOTLAND (Google search shows this as a students res which costs £80 a week) wedding venue and what amount you will receive working for the budgeted hours at the occasion.
More so, should you be out of state (or out of your mind to reply!), the Hotel accommodation will be provided for by us, call my husband number. (And there was me thinking she was getting married next December!)
Best regards,
Melisa and Jim husband +44(0)7011163984 (Beware of 070 numbers, this one starts in 0701, it appears to be a mobile number but it may link into an extremely high cost telephone systems costing the caller hundreds of Euro per minute).

 

 

I'm not actually sure how the scam works, but it sure is a scam.

Cops selling advertising!

An Garda Siochana here asking you for a favour, Dominic - would you show your support to the lads in uniform and in appreciation of the good work they do by taking an advert in the Christmas issue of the Garda magazine.

I told the guy that that was a pathetic sales pitch and clearly he was not a member of An Garda Siochana as he implied, he immediately hung up. 

Perhaps next year he will be honest and tell me he is an ad salesman selling slots in the Garda magazine on behalf of the publishers and that the support he refers to is his commission, which I would have no trouble with!
