Ah yes, I've got mine. Obviously because I'm worth it. grin I'm emptying all the round pounds out of the DGC's moneyboxes as I type. I'm confident I can make the investment target.

If you're reading this, Rev Chris, I might just be bending the truth somewhat.

I've got HEATHEN printed on my forehead, is that why I didn't get one?

I’ve not had one, maw is it ‘cos I’ve got Meanie printed on my forehead? grin

harrigran Sat 07-Oct-17 23:06:54

Me too, just found it.

Marelli Sat 07-Oct-17 22:43:29

And me.

Elrel Sat 07-Oct-17 22:35:10

I had it too. Hadn't seen this thread so reported the pm to GNHQ.

Well, I've checked down the back of the sofa, shaken the cat's bedding, but couldn't come up with enough for Rev Chris. Am I destined for hellfire and damnation? ?

If only I had read further down the list!,!

callgirl1 Sat 07-Oct-17 22:24:33

I feel left out.

Gagagran Sat 07-Oct-17 22:15:03

Just got in and found I had this pm too. Now blocked.

Galen Sat 07-Oct-17 22:10:11

I’ve had the same and blocked

Chewbacca Sat 07-Oct-17 22:04:26

Hmmm, how disappointing! Am I not considered religious enough to benefit from Rev Chris's largesse? Feeling rather hurt by his omission now. sad

merlotgran Sat 07-Oct-17 22:01:40

I've had one as well. Only just noticed it though.

MawBroon Sat 07-Oct-17 21:52:25

Yes I have reported it.
I have clearly been “blessed”because —I am rich— and have MUG printed on my forehead grin

Baggs Sat 07-Oct-17 21:51:13

Yup. I got one too. Blocked. Jas anyone told HQ?

Chewbacca Sat 07-Oct-17 21:49:00

No, Maw I've not had any pm like that. How odd that that's come in via GN to your personal email inbox. Have you reported it to GNHQ?

grannyactivist Sat 07-Oct-17 21:47:00

Yes, I've just deleted the same message and came on here to put up a post, but you beat me to it.

MawBroon Sat 07-Oct-17 21:46:40

Many more of you had one?

“God bless you and thanks,
how are you? Happy to meet you. I got your contact via this site, I seriously have interest to invest on a profitable business in your country, the money I want to invest was acquired from my church member, and then I was his financial adviser. The amount to invest is ($14.5 million US dollars) presently, but I’m the present Catholic Church leader in my parish, if you will like to assist me as a partner, you must have the fear of God? Kindly indicate your interest, and all other details relating to the funds will be revealed to you as we progress on. Confidentiality contact my direct e-mail address ([email protected] or [email protected]) also indicate your direct telephone number, when replying this mail, God will guide us and with good health Amen,
God bless you and your family,
Rev, Chris”

I would of course be happy to invest the $14m he wants, but haven’t got any loose change at present hmm
