Strangely enough, from people that I know who have dealt with this stuff, a lot of the goofy things they tell you to look out for DO show up in the real thing. The grease marks, the poor spelling, excessive postage and so on. I don't know about the "foreign" postage thing. The one we got was postmarked Toronto - but the person spelled both the minister's name and the street incorrectly (we still got it thought, eh?) I wonder if these nutbars spell badly because they just can't spell, or if they do it on purpose? Get your free @yahoo.ca address at http://mail.yahoo.ca
