I've been doing it for eight years and no one has complained and since you obviously have zero idea how people's minds work, if you whine about somethings, I not to mention most sentient beings ratchet up whatever it is that is giving you sniffles.

This isn't fraud. The two parties negotiated. Hosnon Nov 2013 #51

He might have got away with this if the terms he offered were reasonable. former9thward Nov 2013 #11

Maybe, maybe not. That is after all what a trial is for and who knows cstanleytech Nov 2013 #13

But for that to be enforced, it would have to be on an executed contract. whopis01 Nov 2013 #22

And if he had signed that contract, that would be relevant. jeff47 Nov 2013 #25

And if he was dealing with a U.S. bank, he would be breaking banking laws Jenoch Nov 2013 #35

No, he would not. Chan790 Nov 2013 #42

Any competent U.S. judge would throw this case out. Jenoch Nov 2013 #46
