Re: Red Cross

Recommend you contact the Red Cross. Certainly sounds dodgy, and these sorts
of people give the charity they claim to work for a bad name.

I encountered a woman claiming to work for the Royal Victorian Institute for
the Blind (or was it the Guide Dogs?) several times on trains around
Caulfield a couple of years ago. I rang them and asked. They said she was
not working for them, and that the police were investigating. Never saw her
again, so I presume they caught her! :-)
