Poor Dave Rosset!! Sad news ...

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

That is quite a coincidence, a very similar thing happened to one of my friends a little while back only it was Thailand I believe. I wonder if he ever got back home.

I hope your friend makes it back home okay.

Funny thing…the same thing happened to me, I wish I could send my the fellow some money but I have just sent that money order to Nigeria to help that poor Prince recover his fortune.
When I get the money he has promised, I will send some to help the poor traveler in France.

DuFf

Poor ol’ Dave. I’ll pray he gets everything he deserves. Jim

It may take a while, but he will.

That doesn’t sound so bad, compared to being turned into a toad…

Spain is nice this time of year.

Sounds like a good retirement plan to me. If the hotel won’t let him leave until he pays the bill, why not just stay forever? Beats working for a living. :slight_smile:

I could loan him some from my winnings but I’m afraid my money may not get here in time:

didn’t say anything about taking his fishing gear. maybe they left that with him and the hotel has a pond out back to keep him occupied until he gets some funds from the USA to fish elsewhere

I have inherited the wealth of a Nigerian Diamond Mogul and all I have to do is send my information to them and a courier will bring my money to the US.

Uncle Jesse, you’ve got waaaaaaay too much time on your hands. Have you considered going fishing?

I don’t fish when it is lightning, beside it was last night.
