Thanks for getting my back but I do have a dissenting opinion. This event hasn't made me any less trusting. If I know it is the real person that I'm talking to, I will still consider any soft of deal. I got conned because I didn't get Greg on the phone.

I used to own a real world pawn shop. We got conned on a weekly basis but we made out on the other deals. A guy would come and borrow money on a tool box every month for a year. Then we'd stop looking in the box. It'd be heavy and we thought he would come back. When he didn't come back we found it was full of rusted bolts. These things happen and you learn from them. What I learned in the pawn business is that desperate people do desperate things. People prepay joins with us because they know we aren't desperate.

In the pawn business, internet business and every thing else I've been a part of problems happen when you get lazy, let your guard down and don't go through all the steps. Sometimes it has to happen to remind you to stick with the tactics.
