Anyone else had Bob Patterson of the UK, say he's got the parts you need , just send me a Western Union funds transfer !!!!
I know what l think he is, but hell he may be genuine !!!
I think the magic words are Western Union funds transfer. Red lights are flashing.
I'd stay away from that one. They usually go quiet when you ask for pictures and specific dimensions.
Usually anyone from the UK is bad news. Don't do it.
When you talk to the real UK T guys, they all talk of coming over to the states to get their parts......
Bob Patterson goes right to my Spam file!
Then it would seem l was right.
Anyone got a set of 13 Touring top irons in good shape they'd like to part with ??

BOB if you're reading this bad luck and ...... off.
Mr Patterson is not a UK Register member and I have not heard of him.
Yes. I am looking for a copy of the Vintage Ford Magazine. 1967 Vol.2 # 2. He E Mailed me he had it in good working order and repair. He wanted me to wire him 100 GBP. That's like almost $200. Duh!
I have a vague recollection that "Bob Patterson in the UK" has surfaced on the forum before in connection with a scammer. There was some discussion at the time about the fact that it was slightly misleading because we have two regular forum participants named Patterson.
I usually tell the spammers that I travel to the UK on business, and will be happy to pick it up in person and pay cash. If they don't say that works for them, its a scam. That's always the last I hear from them.
If you suspect you got a spam email .. NEVER respond to it. These emails are usually not someone looking for some idiot for someone to send them money for something they will never get ... they want a 'qualified' email address to sell or use for other purposes. When you respond .. they know they have a 'live' email address. Delete and disregard. Anything else is a wast of time, save maybe letting others know, if necessary.
A little OT .. but similar to above .. never UN-subscribe from some junk email, either. It falls into the same catagory .. they are fishing for 'live' email addresses. Of course if you KNOW it's a service you really did subscribe to, and now don't want to get the email any more .. then it probably is OK to unsubscribe. You may be on some of those email lists because you checked a box (or didn't UN-check it) when you signed up for something else. Best, then ... to go back to that site, and unsubscribe from your profile. Then you know you are on a real site, and are following a protocol they SHOULD honor. Best of luck.
Please don't confuse this character with me.
He's in the UK.....I'm in paradise.
Cheers,
Rob
Not me either, I no longer live in the the U.K.
He could be related to this guy...

"Chinchilla"? I think my Grandmother had a coat made from some of his relatives.
Sounds like a bit of a weasel to me.
Yep, those Chinchilla boys are real rodents!
I smell a rat...
Because I am such a great guy I will pass this along to My T friends...I am a small entrepreneur and therefor can not take the IRS hit on this one. (I'd also put my Social Security payment at risk). Enjoy the good life!
Greetings From Barrister Ryan Inesta,
Do permit me to introduce myself briefly; I am Barrister Ryan Inesta Handerson (Esq), a Solicitor and Legal Consultant in Spain. Actually, I got your contact information through the public records while searching for a reliable one to partner with me in claiming a deposited estate of my late client by name Late Abdul Salman Al Saud, Saudi Arabian business property magnate who died along with his family during the Atlantic Hurricane Katrina which occurred in August 2005 in their short summer holidays visit to America. Do not be amazed by this e-mail confidential business proposal. I am contacting you based on Trust and confidentiality that will be attached to this transaction.
Prior to my explaining further, I must first make an apology for this unsolicited mail to you. I am conscious that this is certainly not a predictable way of approach to foster a relationship of trust but because of the circumstances and urgency surrounding this claim I decided to reach you via this media to join me to put claims on this fund before it is seized or confiscated by the authorities. Before the catastrophe; He deposited sum of $5.8M (Five Million Eight Hundred Thousand United State Dollars only) with a Bank here in Spain.
As the attorney, the Bank has mandated me to present a member of his family member (heir/inheritor) to make Claims or the fund will be confiscated to the federal reserve account as unclaimed, I was given an ultimatum to look for some relative to come for the claim or have the fund liquidated and made unserviceable in accordance with existing laws “ATTICUL 104B”.
After preliminary efforts of search for a direct family member which came to no avail, I decided to contact you, my suggestion to you is that I will like to present you as the beneficiary to this deposited fund, I know you may not be anyway related to my late client but having every legal proof is a possibility that the abandon deposited fund with the bank will be released/transfer to you. I can guarantee that if you are willing and interested I will put in place all necessary modality in accordance with the Law to legally present you as the true Next of Kin and true beneficiary.
This transaction is 100% risk free as I have worked out all modalities to complete the operation effectively. Once the fund is released and transfer to you, we shall divide the content in the ratio of 50% /50% as our benefit.($2.900,000.00 for each of us), Endeavour to get back to me whether or not you are willing to collaborate with me or not So that I can further my search for another partner.
Kindly indicate your interest to this email by responding back to me through my private email address to enable us discuss further. More so, I will appreciate if you indicate your full names, telephone/fax numbers and Contact address for easy communication in this mutual transaction. You can respond through my personal private email address ; barihanderson@wss-id.org for further clarification.
I wait for your quick response.
Best Regards,
Ryan Inesta Handerson (Esq).
