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.
