I have been contacted by Darren Gallagher of the IVA media panel - working for PR121 in London for information on my 'story'. Whilst it looks as though it is a genuine company (from the website) I have just been asked for my home address in exchange for a £5 gift voucher which I found a bit strange. I might just be being paranoid but I don't like sharing my personal info with just anyone... can you confirm that this is not a hoax?

This could have been the people that have tried to ring me-thought it may have been someone chasing me for money again.

Wow, I sent my address back before even checking on here! Phew! I didn't even think! I'm a bit daft like that. I had a call the other day, they wanted to interview me but in work on a thurday night, i just couldn't have done it. Next time maybe.

You're far too trusting Viki ... OOPS I did the same ... the thought of all that lovely free money
When I was young I was called a rugged individualist
When I was in my fifties I was considered eccentric
Here I am doing and saying the same things I did back then and now I'm labelled senile
