A search of the forum would be helpful, we get one a day at least and most need to be edited. Maybe we should start tossing em all.

I'd vote to see all of them tossed, especially ones that are posted and make my poor screen stretch so far.
I recieve 5-10 a day now on accounts that have never even had paypal. My paypal account is not used for anything but paypal.█ Mike from Zoodia.com
