Kevin,

It is obviously a hoax.  People should check up and think carefully before
sending out such rubbish.

I think that alarm bells should, indeed be sounding particularly as
the government (with cross-party support) has (only relatively
recently) agreed to increase DLA for blind individuals. Any proposals
to cut the benefit would run directly counter to this decision and
would therefore make me suspicious of their authenticity.

Regards,

Kevin
