***BEWARE SCAM PHONE CALLS***
please keep this bumped until I get a chance to contact the club later.
I was just woken at 6.30am with a call on my mobile from a private number. The guy claimed he was from the UK (did have an accent) and wanted to know if I was the St Kilda Football Club.
Said he was from the fraud squad and something to do with a bank account and 1400 pounds ?????????
a few of will know me as i am the secretary of the Albury/wodonga supporter group, my contact details are widely available and i suspect this guy might be going through the website or something similar.
Gee I really needed to be awake this early as I have a 12 hour round trip planned tonight
