Hee hee! This chain letter stuff is hilarious!


Actually, it -can- be amusing. Good thing the frequency is way down on
this type of posting, just the same.

I was ticked off by a posting one day, and noticed that two of the id10t's
were in the same town, and using PO boxes. Since the rest of us know it's
illegal, I thought it'd be interesting to talk to the postmaster
-providing- the PO boxes.

He said, and I quote, "They're using MY boxes for that scam? I'll
straighten that right out." I faxed him the posting, he told he he'd get
the postal fraud inspectors involved.

I'd bet they learned a bit of a lesson from that misadventure, and it felt
good to advise the -local- authorities.
