Get your checkbook out

By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2009 but it's good stuff - United Kingdom

Today, I found a letter in the postbox at my new flat which ran something along these lines of: "Hi. We're the gas company. You owe us £1,229.79 and have 7 days to pay us. Lotsa love, dated 7th September." FML

gas company? huh... may sound like your parents trying to scam you and sending you lots of love, gas company does not say anything along those lines.

I think it's fake. wait a week and see

probably a phishing scam. i bought a new house and get all kinds of junk mail. if it's not in bill form, and they can't verify it over the phone, they're trying to pull a fast one.

It's a scam, happens all the time where I live.

If they wrote the letter using that kind of grammar, it's most likely not a gas company, especially because they didn't state the name of their company.
