 paying for advice - Screwloose
BobbyG

Any matters that may have been discussed between myself and the HJ organization - now well in the past - will always remain confidential.

I can, however, reveal that the unsolicited approach came from an unknown person appearing to be connected only with the scam-site and having no connexion to HJ.


As to liability; it cannot be long before advice freely given on an open forum will be tested in a court case. I'd think that anyone known to be, even tenuously, connected to the trade could already be subject to "Duty of Care" legislation when giving advice.

This matter has been discussed at length on trade-only sites and there are now very strong - and growing - opinions that all shared inter-trade information should be considered "privileged" and never given out on public sites; regardless of time elapsed.

With 7,000+ "indiscreet" posts on HJ; if certain people ever find out who I am - I'm a dead man....
