Both 38s are in Crimson today - 1867 and 1871
3 48** are on the 902/904/905 - 4855, 4856 and there is another 48** on there

Must be 4854 as 4853 is on the 52

Hi guys. I've just recieved this text from "NXWM" (I did not set the contact, it did it automatically) . I don't know if it's legitimate though so does anyone know if it's real or fake?

Did that come from the same contact who said Central Buses were having new Citaro's?  :P

If only! Then this would all be sorted! It says "NXWM" but I don't think this is from NXWM.

No, which is why I'm puzzled about this. Is it real or fake?

If there was a PB open day, I'm sure Tony would have told everyone by now with only 3 weeks to go, I think someone is having you on!

I honestly have no idea. I'm now worried about who sent this text and why.

Because maybe someone see's you as an easy target so used something they know you like to freak you out.

Psychology, think about it. If you make obvious you like a certain hobby, as an example buses, they use this to then confuse and in a way take the piss out of someone, by saying something related to that hobby is happening this then makes the person believe it is true and therefore taking the piss and when it is proved wrong you get freaked out and they've done both in one.

@Michael Bevan , has anyone had access to your phone and changed there name or created a contact in your contacts for NXWM.

Only reason is that I once managed to change my name in a friends phone to ITV. She had entered one of those Who Wants To Be A Millionaire competitions and so i text her and told her she had won £10,000 and gave the number of ITV HQ in London to ring and the contact name of Chris to speak to. As you can imagine I was in someones bad books for a while, but looking at the email you were sent, it seems a clear hoax.

It's a shame that as bus spotters, we seem to get the butt of many jokes, it's a hobby just as good as any other hobby!
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).
