So we have established there was 1490 in notes in an envelope that was supposed to be sent to you? Who would send that?! I have had a 10pound note taken from a birthday card when I was about 15 by the postal system. Who isnt going to try and take 1490quid, if it was sent

If it can only be insured to 500quid why did he not send 3 envelopes with 500quid in each envelope (well 2 x 500 and 1 x 490)
