AdScam!

[E.E.I]

Hello,

I had 3 phone calls from 3 different companies today trying to sell me Ad space in their monthly booklet highlighting the risk of rogue traders.

They also told me that if I was to take out an Ad the would only refer me to anyone in my area as a competent electrician.

Oh yeah, they also promised at least 3 jobs a month?

Has anyone else had dealings with these sort of companies? It's got to be a scam, 3 phone calls within the space of an hour!

One political party who I disagree with made the mistake of sending me a free post envelope. I giftwrapped a brick and taped it to it.

Oh now that's just pure class!!

I think the Kleeneze man, Rington's tea man and the Avon Lady are all still quivering under a hedge somewhere too.

Oh yes ... and the Better Ware bod too.

I lead a nice, quiet peaceful life nowadays ..... in between Tidyboiler's visits that is.

It was almost some dog poo that had been sun baked but then I remembered, there's no law against posting bricks.

Aye .. you could be in a bit of bother for posting that.

A week or two back a certain ----- from round the corner let her dog crap on my path and I carefully trod in it and spread it on my carpet.

Later that night the remains of it found it's way smeared all over her car's door handle ....

So far, neither she nor dog have been back.

Seen her?? ...... I have had "words" with her in the past when her skanky daughter thought it would be fun to chuck a football at my window - three times!!

It was yet another brief but meaningful conversation with a successful result.....

But there should be against boasting pricks..........and their ad scams.

The one I get all the time is the scousers wanting me to advertise in the police/fire service magazine! They get all shirty and hang up if you put them under any pressure.

Had that one before, asked them to send me a sample copy. Still waiting on it three years later. Also asked him can I pay with some monopoly money, at this stage he decided to hang up.
