Dear All,
Apologies to everyone who is familiar with this.
The Craig Shergold/John Craig hoax seems to be active again (last mentioned
on this list in August last year). We have just received a chain letter from
a national institution asking us to send compliments slips. The prominence
of this particular institution has prompted me to make this posting.
There is plenty of information on the web about this - and each site I visit
gives as many variations of the story as there are of the hoax itself;
however, the message on each is clear - it is definitely a hoax, but like
many rumours, it once had an element of truth about it.
More info:

or just do search on "Craig Shergold".
Best wishes,
Phillip
