I'm getting an inkling that this might be a scam.
Both our last names are incomplete, and the mailing address belongs to neighbour who is aware of any incoming mail from far away. Postmen deliver by address, not by name, so it will go through. I didn't tell her what it was for to keep the Secret Santa still a secret, but that kind of preparation is necessary for giving information on the net.
Xanthos, Don't worry, I will follow through on this commitment, but I'm just ensuring I don't get any nasty surprises.
Ark, I don't think you were serious about the scam accusation, but it is a good idea to make similar preparations if you don't feel comfortable giving out your info.
Originally posted by hopscotchPersonally I think it is a scam, so I'm taking part because I like getting shafted unnecessarily by people I've never met.
This is not a scam.
Xanthos is doing his annual good deed, which is part of his special 'rehabilitation into society' programme.
I'd be participating except I hate Christmas.
