I had a phone call yesterday which I felt I must simply share. I had a call from the UK from a man that sounded like he was probably 30-40 and had a strong local accent. He said
'are you the bitcoin buyer'
I said ' I sometimes buy them but I like bitcoins so thats me'
He said ' I have 300 casascius bitcoins the first ones do you want to buy them?'
I said 'I already have 2 but would love to add more to the series 1 one bitcoins. What denomination are you talking and what coin material?'

This went on for a while and I actually had to explain what the concept of denomination is (I was giving him time to explain).

Anyway I asked in a nice way if he had proof he had them and I would turn up within a day with 40k cash to buy 100 of them. He said he can't work out how to upload a photo on his computer but his last remark was this ' I bought them ages ago. I actually have a few thousand bitcoins on a memory stick but I didn't really understand them I bought them because of Max Keiser'

After a few seconds we hung up.

He didn't try to scam me so why did he call me up and talk such rubbish?
