Fortunately this did not happen to me. A dear friend sent me an email warning. Glad he did - I would have probably fallen for the scam - i.e. getting a gift for a small charge and the ‘alcohol delivery to an adult’ is a clever ruse.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone;)

You are aware that snopes claims this scam has been around since 2008?

The email is almost verbatim from the description on snopes. Any time you get one of these ‘warning’ emails, check with snopes.
