[pct-l] SAD NEWS !!

She's still posting on Face Book so I knew it had to be a hacker. Geez. She's 
trying to get it fixed now.

For anyone else who received one of these...

These are usually scams perpetrated by people who have hacked other people's 
email accounts.

Points:

She has little or no reason to contact me personally.
I don't recall any mention of a London trip 
    (though not close enough to _really_ know these things, see previous.. ;-)
England has very strict gun control, so unless she was robbed with a shotgun or 
vintage rifle...
    (ok, that might be a little tongue in cheek, 'cause if you're going to be a 
robber you probably don't care if pistol ownership is a crime!)

Please verify offline with Andrea before attempting to send any money.
