A THREATENING letter warning people they will be abused if they do not send money should be binned, according to trading standards officers.

The letter from someone calling themselves Morgan T talks about a premonition of bad luck after December 11.

Jean Lee, of Allenby Road, Biggin Hill, was scared when she first received the letter.

It says: "A silent threat is now hanging over you.

"You could be severely abused over the next few days.

"Without my protection you could unknowingly become the victim."

Mrs Lee, 67, said: "This is sick.

"People have got to understand it is rubbish."

If people are still worried about the letter, they can send it to Trading Standards, Civic Centre, Stockwell Close, Bromley BR1 3UH.
