Seems like poor ol' Dave can't even go on a trip anymore without a tragedy befalling him! I received this email this morning.

Hello,

I'm e-mailing you from a free local library. Am sorry I didn't inform you about my traveling. My family and I came down here to Madrid, Spain for a short trip, Unfortunately I was robbed at a gun point. All cash, credit card and cell phones were stolen from us. Well I'm glad we are still alive and that's what's important.

I've been to the Embassy and the Police here but they're not helping issues at all and our flight leaves soon but we are having problems settling the hotel bills and the hotel management won't let me leave until we settle the bills. I need your assistance. I'm wondering if you could help us with a quick loan, I promise I'll refund it once we get back home.

Am freaked out at the moment and I really need your help.

Thanks
