    Got a 419-like email on Friday from a Michael Murphy who gave his
    address in Ramsey IoM. So did a google on the post code and got this:
    <http://www.gov.im/fsc/ViewNews.gov?menuid=10222&page=lib/news/fsc/mic
    haelgoodwooda.xml>

    ....and I thought it was just an Irish joke!

    Anyone else get one?
    Anyone over there able to sort this out?
    :)

    If you put the "wrapped around" bit of the link (on the next line) at
    the end of the address it works better.

    Except that if you're the sort of TC that's fooled by 419 scams, you'll
    never get to read it...
