[Durham INC] Help! from David Harris

[Tom Miller]

Since he's going to be in Madrid for a while, I suggest that he take in the
Prado and get out to Escorial.  It's hot this time of year so they should
take plenty of water.

Stay hydrated, David!

Melissa and Gary,

David's e-mail has been compromised.  Do not send any money and don't worry
about David.  See this link:

Hi Gary and Andrew. I don't know if you know David Harris or not, but he is
a very caring and active Durham citizen. He has been president of the
Interneighborhood Council, is a member of the Planning Commission, and has
received numerous recognitions for his help in our education and other
systems.

 

He is stranded with his family in Spain and needs legal/financial advice.
Apparently the embassy is not being particularly helpful.

 

Please see his email below.

 

I really appreciate your urgent help here.

 

Thanks!

Melissa (Rooney)

P.S. Hope you are well.

Hi,

  I'm writing this with tears in my eyes,my family and I came down here to
Madrid, Spain for a short vacation. unfortunately,we were  mugged at the
park of the hotel where we stayed,all cash and credit card were stolen off
us but luckily for us we still have our passports with us.

 

We've been to the Embassy and the Police here but they're not helping issues
at all and our flight leaves in few hours from now but we're having problems
settling the hotel bills and the hotel manager won't let us leave until we
settle the bills. Well I really need your financial assistance..Please, let
me know if you can help us out?

 

Am freaked out at the moment!!

 

 

Thanks

 

David
