No. You shouldn't take it, you silly fool! Sounds like it could be from a complete stranger. You don't even know why they want you to have the ticket! What if they are a complete lunatic! Ha haaaa!!!
Have you NEVER heard the phrase, "never accept sweets from strangers?" GEEZ!!
Also, why would you ever want to come to Britain for a holiday?
To paddle around in the sea and get yourself all wet deary? Heh.
Hey, maybe there's a big nasty shark out there waiting to tear every little morsel from you and gobble you up for its dinner! *sneaky laugh!*.
But seriously though, there are some nice places in Britain, so nice to come here in the Summer. The only thing is, no one knows the destination of your ticket, only you.
You can't just go trapesing off anywhere you feel like it!
You have to make proper reservations first!
Only if it's in good faith and that' it's absolutely NO CON JOB!

If u should take this ticket and go to UK then do so with caution there are so many freaks out there..U can never be careful enough.The Uk is so far away from ur home and u never know what could happen.everyone else has asked if u know the person offering the ticket to u Take heed of all that they have told u. It is a wonderful opportunity but do be careful

Something doesn't sound right. How well do you know the person that is making the offer? Would you feel safe around this person. I think if this person can afford to spend that kind of money on you, then they can afford to fly to see you first in your country. If you take the trip, you could be exposing yourself to unseen danger. Proceed with a lot of caution!!!

I would be very careful.There is nothing in this world for free.Have they asked you to also take something for a friend or a relative or bring something back for someone from the uk? you might be a "MULE"
There has to be a catch.If you do accept the offer do it with your eyes wide wide open
Have they offered you to take a suitcase or something?
be careful because before you know it, you might be in prision somewhere for carrying illegal stuff.

Make sure everything is genuine first and thst they are not after anything in return .It might be a con and when you get here there is nowhere for you to stay so be carefull .If it is not a con then good on you but why would you want to come here for a holiday .

Do you trust this person?This could the old scam,putting drugs in your luggage without you knowing,Or it could be a way of forcing you into prostitution.Please be very careful.Remember the addage:Theres' no such thing as a free lunch.Ps.on reflection,even if you trust this person,don't touch it,it's far easier for people you trust to con you.

i once got offered an all expense paid carribean cruise by this bloke i met at wealthymen dot com. we've been dating for a couple of months and he seemed really sincere and persistent that i finally agreed. it was the best trip of my life and we're still together. some risks are just worth taking :-)

Depends on what the catch is, there's no such thing as a free ride! What do you have to do for it? Carry something in or out of the country?...tread very very carefully indeed my friend!

Are there any strings attached?
If it is a genuine offer with nothing else, take it and enjoy yourself. If there is more to it than that, hesitate and think about what they are offering.

Unless your an donkey who is going to end up becoming a mule I would say no way, buy your own ticket or stay were you are.
