Hello Sir / Madam

My name is blackestnight and I have two million spliffs, trannies and hardcore animal porno DVDs sat in my basement.

I need to get them out of my country for quick profit so provide your bank details and I'll give you 20% of any monies.

Regards

blackestnight

'As above, my Blackberry has lost the plot'............................................correct forum.

Is it cos it's black?

Websites don't have a 100% sure way of determining your location. For the longest time some ISP's in the South of England were often labelled as people from France.

It does sound a little odd though, almost like there's a bit hijacking going on.

Go to Google and search my "My IP"

You'll get something like "Your public IP address is 216.183.151.1", but a different number.

Then go here http://tools.whois.net/whoisbyip/

Type in your IP address.

If the returned details don't look anything like your phone providers, it may well be that all your phone 'net traffic is being redirected through a proxy, which is fishy and should be looked into.

isn't me

All seems fine now, did the IP check, showing as either Blackberry or Plusnet depending if Im connected at home or not.

Interesting what you said about ISPs down south as Ive just come back from a holiday on the Lincolnshire coast, that could possibly explain the Holland thing, as for Nigeria ??

Been near Newham?

Never, Ive heard its not pleasant ?!

Better than Mogadishu
