OK, now I've finally found Andrea's message -- in my spam folder! I've seen this at least 4 times over the past month, including from a workmate who was sitting right beside me at the time. It's a scam. If you were in trouble, would you turn to your lace-making buddies for help? I mean, really....
I've unsubscribed Andrea's account from lace-digest and lace-chat-digest. Do NOT communicate with Andrea using this account. If you reply to "her" email, you will get a message telling you how relieved she is and with an account number where you can wire her a couple hundred dollars to pay her bills, get her home, etc. There is a real person using Andrea's account and it sure isn't Andrea.

I`ve been to the embassy and the Police here but they're not helping issues at all and my return flight leaves anytime from now but I`m having problems settling the hotel bills and the hotel manager won't let me leave until I settle the bills. Am freaked out at the moment and need help. -- Blog: http://apinnick.wordpress.com Photos: http://www.flickr.com/photos/spindexr To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat y...@address.here.
