 Only just saw this thread. I DEMAND at least some of the things suggested here be done. Seriously, it can't be that hard to find some London Goons willing to help.

 1- Someone should call up and ask for an estimate on the delay. I don't know if FedEx can give that information, but someone needs to try.

2- Make sure you have someone at the FedEx place. I know the chances of identifying the package are slim, but at least you'll have that base somewhat covered.

Good luck all.

 [edit] I should have just assumed I'd be beaten.

Yes, Jeff identified it.

Also, ELeeming, I think you just got the numbers wrong. THe second last one could be an O/0.

 OK, so the barber signed for the package with the scammer's name. I think we still need to rule out the possibility that the barber actually IS the scammer. I think someone should call the barbernet shop, say, posing as an angry customer.

"I'm not happy. I want to talk to the owner. What's you name?" etc.

Or, if the the barber isn't the owner, ask for the barber's name.

I would do it if it weren't for my fairly strong Australian accent and the fact that the call would cost me so goddamn much :(.

 I'm in favour of talking to the media as soon as possible, but making sure Scammer McScamster doesn't get tipped off.

 Re-voicing my suggest that someone get the name of the barber before this poo poo goes down.

seriously, am I the only one that thinks that's a strange name for a barber shop... only in England...

plus, all those signs on the storefront look like complete rear end.
Surely that isn't the name of the man himself. I refuse to believe that anyone has the last name 'Climax'. Still, we should find out the names of the other employees too.
