Fake Scots Titles

[Sketraw]

But the above pales into insignificance when compared with the bogus major titles and pedigrees that some parade around with, who take advantage of peoples goodwill etc in a major way. These in my book are the major villains of this rather sad situation, particularly as threats of violence are bandied about.

You are correct Jock, however it is one of the few historic Scottish Titles left and some do misuse the Laird title by converting it to Lord for one thing and do use it for villainies purposes as well as self aggrandisement.
