Daniel Sullivan Racing - warning

[CountryLad]

Received promo info through the post from this lot - basically a free trial on a tipping service. Wasn't about to take them up on their 'generous' offer, but was curious enough to have a nose about with Google. Didn't take much searching to turn up stuff about them so, to save others some time; look here; http://www.sportsanswerbank.com/Hors...ion392833.html

Wonder which of the lowlife books I've given my details to decided to breach the DPA for a few quid.

hey CountryLad

I got the same from this lot today
a letter, page with some bets they apparantly tipped up and the usual rubbish

thought it would be drivel

no idea where he got my details from though?!?!

I for one wont be signing up

checked out the link you provided, ta

any idea how he got your details..you subscribe (or have in past) to any tiplines?

I got one too Thursday morning.

Got it, Binned it - immediately, even before I saw this thread!

Whilst we are on the subject, I got this the other day through the post too. Looked way dodgy to me. Here is the letter:



Couldn't find a damn thing on Google about them either which is always a bad sign.

The address given is a hairdressing salon called Claritys.

As an afterthought, anyone know how this scam would work?

[munk]

I don't know, but he IS a doctor, I'm hooked.

rofl @ hairdressing salon .. can't possibly a scam eh? (ps I used to live very close to that address at uni, can't move for horses around there... )

Seriously though, sounds like a classic Nigerian 411 type scam to me where they suggest they have some kind of 'asset' that requires 'liberating', they can't do it themselves for various reasons but you could do it for them / do them a favour and in return you'd get paid handsomely for it. Oh dear.

Yeah you would think they would at least have researched the address mate!!

Thing is I bet there are a few that fall for this kind of thing.

They were established in 1977 though munk, didn't that swing it for you?

I got the Daniel Sullivan Racing scam too, binned it the other day after having a chuckle reading it. Can't believe anyone would fall for it but I guess some must. I would love to know who sold on my details, anyone got any clues?

No idea mate, between us all (that received the letter) we must be at hundreds of books. I would say it is more than likely to be a smaller maybe independent book and none of the so-called "big hitters" (ie Paddy, 365 etc.)
