Warning, please take note.

I'm not usually one for posting warnings about potential scams but I had a close call today, and thought I should alert you all.

I walked into B&Q at lunchtime and some old guy dressed in orange asked me if I wanted decking.

Fortunately, I got the first punch in and that was the end of that.

Those with slower reactions might not be so lucky. Please keep your wits about you next time you go to one of these DIY places.

just to add another that my mate passed on to me by email

"If a guy knocks on your door and asks you to show him your boobs, do not do it, its a con. I did it and i feel like such a fool now.

I had the same problem at B&Q. A bath I bought there kept leaking water, when I tried to return it, a man in orange dungarees asked if I had bought a plug for it.

The sods never told me it was electric when I bought it. What a swizz!

You have been warned.

this cheeky man came up to me in the street and said

excuse me madam, have you had an accident in the last 3 years/

i replied, no i always look like this.

[redcrx]

lol Octavius, i like that one!

[Pippa68]

What about the guy in Waitrose who offered me a portion?

I wondered why he called security..

On a serious note about scams, the FSA are investigating deceptive sweepstake practices. These companies target people unawares and make them think they will receive a whole bundle of cash, but in reality they never see any of it.

The most popular of these scams is called �a pension�.

You have been warned.

An old lady infront of me at the cash machine asked if could check her balance...........so I pushed her over!!!

[dot.hawkes]

well I see things from the other side of the counter, i have lost count of how many people give me the right shoe off display and ask me if i have the other one to it....... one day i swear i will say no you only get the one.

I went into a pub last night. At the door was I big pile of dog pooh. I did not see it, stepped in it slip and skiddied acroos the floor. My trousers were covered in the pooh. I ordered a pint and a man walked in: did exactly the same and got covered in the pooh.

When he got up I said " I did that". Then he punched me on the chin

I went in to a electrical repair shop and said

"Is there anybody who can fix my kettle?"

The man behind the counter said "Kenwood?"

I said "OK where can I find him?"
