Watch out, there is an email SCAM doing the rounds at the moment - I received it twice today. It ishas the subject Sad News........(Andrew Scott Macdonald)

It says:

Hi,
I'm writing this with tears in my eyes,my family and I came down here to Spain, for a short vacation. unfortunately,we were  mugged at the park of the hotel where we stayed,all cash and credit card were stolen off us but luckily for us we still have our
passports with us.

We've been to the Embassy and the Police here but they're not helping issues at all and our flight leaves in few hours from now but we're having problems settling the hotel bills and the hotel manager won't let us leave until we settle the bills. Well I really need your financially assistance..Please, let me know if you can help us out? Am freaked out at the moment!!

IT IS A SCAM so DO NOT reply to it. Search for 'I'm writing this with tears in my eyes' on Google and you'll find plenty of references....
