[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 3552849, member: 27832"]Can you provide some citations backing this assertion? I understand the rules about "found money", but I'm not sure how you equate found money to the issue at hand. I think you're confusing ethics with law. I don't think the FTC's statements on unsolicited items depend on the sender's [I]intent[/I]. Otherwise, a seller could send items to lots of people, harass those people with threats of going to collection if they don't pay, and then claim "oops, we didn't mean that" for recipients who to to the FTC about it. And as far as I know Littleton [I]always[/I] makes it clear (in the fine print) that you're [I]agreeing[/I] to receive coins on approval when you jump on one of their promotions.
