Very interesting when one will post something with truth into it. I just received this reply from my posting earlier.

We are, in fact, backed | 150% of our deposits, with a breakdown as follows... | | 50% by gold certificates | 50% by gold bars | 50% by cash | | Your money is completely safe with us. | | One further note on gold certificates...while it is true that more gold | certificates are issued than gold exists, everyone would have to cash them | in all at once for it to be a problem...This is the reason we did not | hesitate to purchase them for our own use. | | We will always do everything in our power to ensure the safety of our | members deposits...Please feel free to copy my response to you, to the other | posting you noted. | | Thank you, | | Laurie Dyke | OSGold Operations Director | | | | For Gold Games, join my yahoo group by sending a blank email to | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Tired of games?
