Guest MarvinisaLunatic Report post Posted August 14, 2002 My initial concern was not over the idea that he wanted a free CD, but that he using this as a way to get personal information (I don't know how personal, but anything more than a name is too much, ie Tel #, address..etc.) There are a lot of weird people out there, and ususally all it takes are a few key pieces of information about a person to find out much more than that, and in the end possibly screw you over worse than if you were sued in the first place. I'm just glad Im not the only paranoid person around here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
