I had to hope that everyone I knew would see through the email and realise it wasn’t me. I’ve been sent many SOS demands for cash over the years from people allegedly suffering from holiday troubles around the world and my policy is always to report them using the spam button, then delete. I always wondered who would be daft enough to respond offering help. But one acquaintance, Anjuma (whose first language is not English, to be fair), even went so far as to send impostor “me” a third email asking what I needed to sort out my problems at that bus station in Cyprus.
