At our Club meeting last week, one of our members told me he saw an advert in a National Newspaper offering a Technics KN7000 for £1,000 in the London area. He rang the telephone number given and chatted for awhile to the man who answere, but when he said he would go to London to collect the keyboard, the man said there was no need as if our member would send the money he would put it on the train and he could collect it from Cambridge Railway Station. Our member thought this a little strange and not willing to part with that amount of money without first seeing the keyboard, he told the man he would think about it and ring him back.

A few hours later he was reading a magazine and saw an identical advert but this time the address was shown as 'Holland'. He rang the telephone number shown and again was asked to send the money and they would ship the keyboard to England.

By this time our Member was becoming concerned that this could be a Scam so he rang our local Police and asked them to investigate and was told they would cerainly look into it. To date, he is still waiting to hear from them.

Is it a Scam or not? What do you think?
