Subject: BEWARE-Edmonton Stamp Shows-THEFTS!!

Hopefully this worldwide bad publicity, WARNING ABOUT A SERIES OF
THEFTS FROM DEALERS ATTENDING EDMONTON STAMP SHOW,will help to
convince reputable dealers to avoid this disaster area, thereby
eliminating such losses!!
From the reports, it sure smells like an "inside" job, again.

The story was carried by the Edmonton Journal,
AS A FEATURE STORY ON THEIR POLICE CRIME PAGE.

In what is becoming a regular annual occurrance, yet another stamp
dealer has been robbed of stock at the annual stamp show held by the
EDMONTON STAMP CLUB, in Edmonton,Canada,last month.

The media report that this dealer had a box of expensive material stolen
in broad daylight around lunch time.

The article in the news did not say whether it is suspected that
the theft was done by someone connected with the so-called
stamp show, since for quite a few of the past shows, there have been
similar thefts from dealers.

That is why there are now fewer and fewer reputable dealers
attending this particular so-called show.

For what dealers must pay to attend the show, why don't the executives
of the Edmonton Stamp Club pay for qualified security staff?

Is it that they want to wine and dine themselves into a stupor from all
the profits from overcharging the few dealers left who attend?

BEWARE!!! UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR STOCK STOLEN!!

In a related story, the person in charge of the Edmonton Stamp Club
stamp shows is being investigated by C.C.R.A. Special Investigations
in connection with his testimony in Court, regarding MILLIONS OF
DOLLARS OF UNDECLARED INCOME!!

Further, the tax authroities are also checking into his admission
of MONEY LAUNDERING!!

Hmm,hmmm.......
