I had a cold caller this morning (not unusual you might say) but this guy was an investment broker and asked me if I was interested in investing some cash!................FFS, does he ever watch the news or read the papers?

Was he from India by any chance?

Is it true that you can ask for the name and phone number of their company because they can then be prosecuted? :scratch:

Watch out for the share sharks mate, some of these guys will call from miles just to sell you moody shares - well known scam, check out the film The Boiler Room it explains it perfectly.
