At last, you've found the perfect topic heading

Saw this post on the 'Days out thread' 1st. I think the 'Only joking' thread is a lot more suitable!

Maybe it should be renamed - 'You must be f**king joking' ???

Yep right place this is a bloody wind up!!

I'm quite impressed that she is single parents surely that be contradiction in terms!!!

It's also on the 'creative writing' thread!

It's maddening though isn't it? Wondering what the message was?

It was a scam from a 'Russian poverty striken single Mum' begging for money.

Saw the message!!!

Deserted by her mean partner at 3 weeks pregnant, lost her job, couldn't get another, spent all her money before bubs came. She is single parents. No pram, toys, nappies cos she spend all the pennies (daft lady)... only given $30 a week by russian government. Long address, phone number, passport information (??? what use is that???)... please send me toys, pennies, a jumbo jet kind of thing.

We all rushed to get out our cheque books of course...

it was on about 30 threads!

It was on 79 threads!

I've been on mumsnet all day (on and off) and i'm really gutted i missed this thread!!

however, it kinda frightened me that there are people out there mis-using forums like this ...
