I received the email below from someone claiming to be Norm this
morning. Many of you may have received this email as well. It is almost
certainly a scam to get someone to wire funds to the UK.
I have left a message with Norm just in case but until you hear
otherwise (i.e., from him directly), do NOT wire funds to anyone whose
identity you cannot verify.

How are you doing? This has had to come in a hurry and it has left us in
a devastating state. My family and I had a visit to (UK) for a short
vacation unannounced some days back, but unfortunately we were mugged at
the park of the hotel where we stayed by some thugs, all cash, cell
phones and credit cards were stolen off us but luckily for us we still
have our passports with us.
The Embassy and Police have failed to be effective in this matter,
besides paper work would cost us days we can't afford and our flight
leaves tomorrow but we're having problems settling the hotel bills and
the hotel manager won't let us leave until we settle the bills. Please I
really need your financial assistance.. Let me know if you can help us out?
I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
Thanks,
Norm
