British man kidnapped in China
Not newsworthy enough apparently for our british hacks that a man has had to post a plea for help on the internet to ask for help in freeing his brother, an englishman, kidnapped in China. He even has video proof & shows it on the web site & is raising a petition to lobby the UK & Chinese authorities to find out what has happened to his brother. It is worth a look & do add your name to his petition, who knows it could be you next time. Will warn you that the video is graphic but too real to be a put up, or is it? Check it out for yourself at

Re: British man kidnapped in China
Errrrrrr you numpty, are you trying to be funny, or were you taken in?
On checking this 'story' out, Andrew Sterling is a character in a computer game, and is only kidnapped in cyber Asia. Did you sign the petition, as l think they [cyber MI6,] are collecting a list of the gullible?

Re: British man kidnapped in China
I was waiting to see if anyone would be taken in. Was reading the reviews on this game yesterday at work.
 I do hope big al wasn't daft enough to REALLY fall for it.  If you look on the campaign calendar Friday the 3rd of June is flashing. Thats when Cold Winter will (hopefully) be released.

Re: British man kidnapped in China
I always treat anything like this (and things about computer viruses) with suspicion.
I had a look as someone sent me an email - and found out the truth! Anything you get like this, just copy and paste some of the narrative into google, and you should find out whether it's real or not.
