    Holy Cow, just saw this stuff.

    Now when a loved one calls you on your cell phone and says, I really do
    admire the ground you walk on and you have always been my favorite person
    in the whole wide world, please send me money now!!

    With a few keystrokes on your cellular device... ShaZZamm!! :cool:

    Wonder what kind of security issues will arise from this seemingly harmless
    wire transfer. ;)

    Take Care All,
    RJ

    I heartily recommend no one use PayPal. For any reason. There is really no need to funnel your money through a third party no matter how it "simplifies" transactions. Just my opinion. :D

    Its a tough thing to stop now that the momentum is so high, sort of like trying to stop the tides from going in and out.
    You lose count of it all when you go to the e bay pages.
    The numbers are just staggering.
    This will be semi-interesting to see how many little baby ducks follow.
    You know how it goes, keep up with the big dogs or stay on the porch. *puppy*

    Take Care

    Im with Ron - looks like a dumb thing to do IMO as well. What for? Looks barfy to me (in my own words) and I'm the type I really don;t give a "poo" what the momentum or tide is. Everyone else can "jump off cliffs" as the old saying goes but I'll hang out on solid ground eh ;-)
