Well, first of all, I tried a little scheme like this when I was young
and silly and got a letter from the RCMP. Let's just say they were
not impressed and it is not legal.
Secondly, this guy is asking us to put $1 bills in envelopes? Hmmm,
haven't seen a one dollar bill in a while? And if we started mailing
loonies, I think some of our mail would never make it as it would be
easily spotted!
If this really works, how about a copy of this loser's bank statement?
Oh well, I really doubt anyone would take this seriously anyways...
Anyone on here ever try something like this? How were your results?
