[QSL-Managers] being a sneak

Fri, 18 Apr 2003 22:23:30 -0400

Perhaps in this day and age, if an email address is available for the
station(s)in question, perhaps an inquiry sent to the op for an explanation?
If no email address, then perhaps a written note WITHOUT the QSL card...
asking why this happened. I would suspect that you may not get another
request for those cards, at least not in the same envelope, huh? But I would
let him hang himself.
If he insists on getting his QSL, then I would go to the DXCC desk for
guidance before sending him the QSLs in question. It is quite possible that
the DXCC desk might already be keeping a file on this fellow... you never
know. But let them make the call... they might just tell you to go ahead and
send the cards and then they will challenge him if he ever makes a
submission.?

One final note.... I have seen a lot in the 25 years that I have been a QSL
manager....but I have NEVER heard of this sort of thing happening... This is
quite unusual.

73!
See ya' in the Pileups!

In the case of such blatantly attempted fraud, I would return all cards
as "not in the log"
