Dutch paper tipped off about Madeleine McCann

Leading Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf has received an anonymous letter containing clues regarding the whereabouts of the missing British girl Madeleine McCann. Police are taking the letter very seriously, because it was apparently written by the same person who last year sent a letter providing the exact location of the two murdered Belgian girls Stacey and Nathalie.

Madeleine McCann
Missing since 3 May 2007
The recent letter says Madeleine can be found in Portugal, not far from the hotel room she was abducted from on 3 May this year. It says that she lies buried "north of the road under branches and rocks, around six to seven metres off the road" in a barren and deserted hilly landscape.

Crosses on a map that came with the letter show the location of her body. De Telegraaf has handed the letter over to Dutch police who will hand it over to detectives in Portugal.

What sort of person are we dealing with here? Is society getting worse with the abduction Madeleine McCann (and hopefully not worse), of with the stabbing of a policeman in Luton England yesterday? Crime and terrorism is reported on a daily, even hourly basis. Is the world deteriorating rapidly?

How can the person responsible live with himself? What would you do to this person? If she is alive why does the person not just leave her on the doorstep of their nearest police station?

Nigeria. How can you expect western aid from the G8?

Britain advised all its nationals yesterday to leave three states at the heart of Nigeria's southern Niger Delta, Africa's top oil-producing region, where violence against foreigners has become commonplace.

The advice came as the Supreme Court refused bail for a former militia leader whose detention has fuelled the unrest, raising pressure on newly inaugurated President Umaru Yar'Adua to address the causes of a crisis which has crippled exports.

Kidnappings, armed robberies and other attacks have risen in Bayelsa, Delta and Rivers states - home to the bulk of Nigerian oil output and the local arm of Royal Dutch Shell - and these are unsafe for Britons, the Foreign Office said


"We therefore advise British nationals to leave. If you stay, you do so at your own risk," it said on its website.

On a personal level I am still being plagued by Nigerian scam e-mails - up to 50 a day. How can you respect these people? I understand that plain clothes police are going into internet cafes to arrest these criminals that use the Nigerian 'advanced fee' or '419' fraud (named after the relevant section of the Nigerian Criminal Code). There are myriad schemes and scams - mail, faxed and telephone promises designed to part victims from their money. All involve requests to help move large sums of money with the promise of a substantial share of the cash in return. Individual monetary losses can range from the low thousands into multi-millions. But the true figures are often impossible to ascertain, because many victims, embarrassed by their naiveté and feeling personally humiliated and do not report the crime to the authorities. It might help if there was a website where these scams could be reported to and that they were then investigaged!

If in doubt you can always type the writers name or company into the Google Search Engine and it will in most cases expose the scam. For example in our article dated Wednesday, May 30, 2007 we listed 10 examples. Type this one in "donation_claimoffice@yahoo.it" and you will see that it exposes the scam.

Flying Saucer (Ovni) sighting over Málaga Spain?

I had this e-mail from a friend this morning.


"Last night I woke up at 3:40 to make a bathroom stop. Walked out on my terrace and above the airport, but very high in the sky, was an amazing sight. There was a red glowing object up there about half the size of the moon. At first it appeared to be moving slowly but hen stayed in one place for several minutes. The color was like a fire but a bit redder than that. At first I thought it might be a weather balloon reflecting back the sun, but at 3:40 in the morning, the sky was completely black so there was no sun up there to reflect.


Went into the small room up and grabbed a pair of binoculars. Well they magnified the object but did not aid in my knowledge of what it was. So I put back the binoculars and went out to watch it again. It appeared to be getting smaller and smaller while still staying approximately in the same place. And finally, it just vanished completely. Never before have I seen such a sight and I hope that the newspapers will report today what it was because I am sure that others also must have seen it."


Did anyone else see it?
