Today I received an e-mail,apparently from Qatar Airways,LLC, thanking me for BOOKING with them. "We have received your booking under reference 81873.88".
Now,I have always understood that a booking does not exist until payment is made. So I now entered "sub-panic" mode. By internet check London bank accounts -- nothing missing. Long phone call to same,on bad line: Do Not Pay any airline ! Next into town, bank balance intact, brief staff on situation. Sub-panic subsides.
So was it a scam ? The sender's ident continued <
