Too funny. My wife and I wonder how many people fall into these con jobs.
I am in Bozeman Montana getting ready to see Yellowstone and the Grand Teton Mts.
I'm hoping this guy also pays for our trip here. LOL

I love messing with these guys. I once gave them the number to a police dept. Believe it or not, they email me and asked for another number because the number I gave them is to a police dept. and they can't get a hold of me.

They are presistant.
