Vera, I'm not going to yell at you except to say that you knew this was wrong and yet you went ahead anyway. This always amazes me. I knew it was going to hurt if I put my hand on that hot stove, but somehow, I just couldn't stop myself. I just needed to feel the pain. I read this over and over. People all say the same thing. I knew it was wrong. I knew it was fraud. I had a feeling I was going to get cheated. I heard about someone else who lost money doing this. Yet, every time, it always ends the same way. They follow through. They get cheated! What does it take? Why are people attracted to things they know are wrong? Things they know will hurt them? Strange! Here's the answer to this. Learn it. Memorize it. Fraud: Good afternoon! I have the deal of a lifetime for you! Potential Victim: I hope it doesn't involve money, cause I ain't got any! Fraud: You don't have a bank account? Potential Victim: Bank account? Hell no! No bank would even think of letting me open an account. I don't have a dime to my name. No job. No welfare. No income of any kind. In fact Fraud: click Potential Victim: Hello, hello? Guess they hung up. Seriously, try using this comeback. The frauds give up quick and get off the phone. This works so much better than saying you're not interested. It works well for bums too. The guy comes up and says hey buddy Before he even gets it out, I ask him for a buck for gas money. Shuts em down every time. Spot the fraud. Explain how you don't have a penny to your name. No bank. No credit card. No cash on hand. Then, get in their face and hassle them for a buck for gas. I've followed salesmen back to their car. They end up giving me a buck just to get rid of me. Done right, you end up making money whenever fraud comes calling! Just like this site, this is my personal contribution to putting fraud out of business.

I just called my bank and I had to physically come to the bank and closed the account to avoid any further charges. I will do that tomorrow. Meanwhile I decided to call "Florida Passport" one more time. This time it went pretty quickly. A female rep answered and said that $149 was for my 5 days 4 night vacation for 4 to Florida which was a bonus that I was signed up for. I WAS NOT AWARE OF THIS OFFER. IT WAS A BONUS!!! BUT THIS BONUS ALSO HAS A 1 week FREE TRIAL PERIOD WHICH ENDED 1/25/04!! That's the same day I received the Agents Travel Network package, and today I will need to check my mailbox I bet there's something from Florida Passport telling me that I will be charged $149 because my 7 day trial period has ended I was given an address to request for a refund. www.floridapassport.com Florida Passport 6822 22nd Avenue North Suite PMB 432 St Petersburg, FL 33710 Btw she slipped up and told me that the city was Holiday, FL before correcting herself to St Peterburg. She said I was still an active member and of course I asked to PLEASE CANCEL IT ASAP!
