NO, it is a common hoax.
Last year I got a "Help"-email from one consultant I have professional relations with.
But he "called" from Spain.

I think this Ed is in some family relation with one of the collectors from Liberia, who every now and then is/was interested
in flat figures.

If you were at Kulmbach, you would have recognised him by the long white beard and hair, under the panama type hat.

Also known as Father Christmas around December time. ;D ;D ;D ;D
