Cruel hoaxers exploit goodwill

It
has been brought to the attention of Personnel Today that a charity item
featured in today’s magazine is in fact a cruel hoax.

The
news item asked readers to donate business compliment slips to a youngster
suffering from cancer who was attempting to gain entry to the Guinness Book of
Records.

However,
the information sent in which was published in good faith has since found to be
false.
