If you were going to scam someone on the net, wouldn't you take care to be smooth and convincing? It amazes me how badly written some of these attempts seem to be - if I was going to be a criminal, boy would I be GOOD at it.

Yeah Mons. Sometimes youre hard to read. In the beginning I thought English was your second language. But really. Now that Ive read your posts for a while, I can actually understand you. Which proves that by giving people a chance you come to learn, what you thought was true, may not be true. Its an important lesson. We need to sometimes slow down and give people a chance before we jump to conclusions.
