 New version of old scam.... - Mike H
As an outsider, the wording seems odd, but perhaps that's the way your friend writes. I would have written "Jane & I went to Istanbul", not "made a trip to Istanbul". similarly "we were mugged in the park", not "at the park", "all our cash, bank cards and mobile phones WAS stolen...". The whole tone of the email is odd - but then again, I can smell a scam, hoax etc. a mile off :-)

But I can see people falling for it.
