I doubt people are sending ~233 British Pounds(~300 USD), according to current exchange rates, as a joke.
Edit. Corrected currency to the Pound.

I think you've done it backwards. $300USD would cost someone in the UK £233GBP.

I guess I read it too fast and made a confusion with the numbers. I thought it was 300 bitcoins, which at ~$1800 each would total 540k USD. Too bad I got downvoted just because of this.
