I'm sorry for this odd request because it might get to you too urgent but it's just the situation of things right now, We're presently stuck in Scotland , we came down here on vacation. we were robbed, worse of it is that bag, cash and credit cards was stolen at GUN POINT, it's such a crazy experience for us and we need help with flying back home, the authorities are not being 100% supportive but the good thing is we still have our passports but don't have enough money to get on a plane back home, please we need you to loan us some money till we get back home to refund it back.
Thanks
Scott Nave

ReplyDeleteDid talk to Scott yesterday and am happy to report he was not robbed at gun point by some Scottish rascals but is safe and sound in beautiful downtown Burbank.
