Where is my NHS account

[Ken Blake]

I used to have an NHS account.

But now it's gone.

Where would I find it?

[Chris]

That's extraordinarily vague. Under the sofa?

[Java Jive]

There's been a whole raft of similar posts all with this same pattern to
different ngs. Most probably, one of the following is true ...

:-) Ken has been smoking too much pot

:-( Ken is suffering from dementia

:-( Someone posing as Ken is trying to be disruptive, perhaps with the
purpose of getting him plonked.

I suspect the latter.

Yup. The real Ken Blake's (non-) e-mail 'address' is different and
there are other differences.

I fell for another one where I thought he was just having some fun.

Yes, replying now to an additional ng that I overlooked before, where a
similar post has generated traffic ...

Yes, if you look at the message headers it's 100% obvious how to spot
the fakes.
