    3. I am passing on this warning from a CFHS member. It is the same or similar to a scam that has been around for some time but some may not have come across it yet. These people use any surname and offer worthless rubbish. Robyn Smith List Administrator Hello Robyn, I have received a letter offering me The Worland Family Chronicle at the special price of £34.95 and quoting the address to send a cheque to as William Pince Publishers SPG0021/NL 9 Trident Way Southall UB18 8NL phone 0208 6068624 I have found the post code for that address is actually UB2 5NP and UB2 5LF not UB18 8NL which made me think that it is likely a scam. I phoned the number and all you get is a foreign person who is just a who cannot answer any questions! I checked on Google and it gave this URL which talks about other scams from this address. http://usenet.lineages.co.uk/article4007-1-1.htm I have also shown the letter that I received to The Thames Valley Police who were very interested and have passed it to the fraud office. <snipped> Best regards, Walter Worland
