Hi Alun

Welcome back. Norm Craven was looking to contact you. Did he ever get through? He lives just down the road from me, so he was over looking for your phone #. Mike Turner helped me out with that.

I would be very cautious with this Young Potter. He may be a 13 year old boy, and he may not. Recently, someone in the UK posed as a 13 year old boy and was asking for free seeds from every person he could find. The person then turned around and set up an ebay account selling the seeds. He was booted off allotment4all, and now this kid shows up with the same gimick. I sent him a a lot of seeds, and find out he is asking for the same EXACT type of seeds I sent him from others. I've received email from many growers in the UK telling of similar stories. Many of them said he was after expensive or unusual seeds and plants. He has enough seeds to make the entire UK into one giant garden.

Please read this thread from the allotments4all site

Also strange: he has en ebay account, but he claims to have absolutely no money and needs free seeds.

There are quite a few people in the UK that have expressed concern to me that it may be the same person pulling this same scam as last year.
