I'm confused again. Just to make this definitely clear, for example, if I
have 1000 names, and only 20 passed the de-dup, how much money (plus
credit) I need in my
account? Do I need fund to cover 20 names or 10000 names? Because 99.99%
chance that sex.info will be de-duplicated from my account.
Thanks.
