Hi Nicky, was the lady speaking very fast? We have a similar looking scammer lady in Upper Woodstock/ University Estate who is very genuine with all her stories and operates for few years now in the area. Last week she came around to say that she is from the residents association and she is raising funds. She had a signature sheet and pen and she was very convincing. Thanks, Steven
