Things like this

Emails like this turn up from time to time.


Before you bother read it I should point out I don't have a PayPal account and if I did they would not email me like this. Just delete this crap:-

The PayPal Team

Talking of teams I went to watch the Torquay Athletic Under 10s to day for the first time in a couple of months.



They were stuffed 6 tries to nil by a well prepared, well drilled Ivybridge team this morning. Ivybridge played better and had more of the play than a fairly weak Torquay team. As we say in the bus trade, "Things can only get better." Thought I am sorry to say, they usually don't. I mean look how much room the Ivybridge winger, in green, has here. Oh yes, he did go on to score

Whenever you ever get emails like that, a lot of the big companies like PayPal and Ebay have a dedicated spam/fraud department which you can forward the email to to check if its legit.

I was there at that game as stated poor Torquay were "stuffed" by a more well coached and drilled Ivybridge side. The Ivybridge players seemed more spread out (not bunching)and played as a team than the Torquay side. It could of easily f been 60 - nil win rather than 30 - nil win for Ivybridge.
