    If it seems too good to be true, it usually is.


    It reminds me of when some guy on facebook tried to convince me to send $780.00 or so to him to claim a promotional prize of $800,000.00, in order to cover postage and handling, it was then that I smelled a rat and realized that he was trying to scam me.

    Total scam. Ive started seeing these pop up sites a bit lately. Like Doc said too good to be true.
