This is from the Irish press, via Damien Mulley.

It’s a scam, of course (one of two possible actually. It’s either processing stolen money or draining your account via something akin to kiting). So, could those who actually get dead tree newspapers in the UK have a quick look through the ads in them? Can we see if anyone is currently advertising this in the UK press? Could be some fun to be had with any newspapers that have taken such ads.

Drop links in the comments or email scans of the ads to me, your choice.
