The above is a message we have received from a good friend’s correct email address – also with their postal address correctly stated.

HOWEVER, the email IS NOT GENUINE.

If you receive an email from any of your friends,similar to the above, take telephone contact with the friend BEFORE you do anything about the email

This came from a hotmail account.
