Hi Doug,
Not sure what the scam is here, but the whole address reeks of
something out of an 'American' mind, if I can put it that loosely, and
nothing Australian. Certainly the postcode is wrong, ours being 4
digits so it looks as tho' its from NowhereinparticularinUSville - and
we don't have streets numbered into the thousands. Maybe that's what
some think - Australia is just Somewherevu(sic)lle.
First Nigeria now Australia. Maybe it makes sense to someone.
Cheers,
Jill
