<p>[QUOTE="Seattlite86, post: 3885086, member: 59737"]These two sum it up for me. I once bought a few of these "unsearched rolls" from various sellers, and dumped lots of money. One of them I ended up befriending (before realizing it was a scam). I even visited him when I passed through his neck of the woods. He's a very kind old man who has MS and uses the proceeds from his online sales to pay for his medical bills. I'll say three things on this:</p><p>1. I haven't talked to him since realizing it was a scam, because I prefer our relationship to have ended on a good note.</p><p>2. I think this is incredibly dishonest, and that both the buyer and seller bear a part of the burden.</p><p>3. I'm grateful to be in a position where I'm financially sound and don't have to take any moves necessary to generate income for my family. It's easy for me to judge these people (and I do), but part of me knows that if I had to post something like that to feed my family, I would.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
