Hi, everybody,
I have been pestered by an organization called InformedElectorate asking me if I want to join a group of a half million people who will be regularly surveyed on important questions of the day. They use a very odd system of semi-robocalls. On the first call, I said, sure why not? ON the second call they blasted me with an screed for a donation of 25 dollars to cover the large expenses of their effort. If I werent such an old Yankee skinflint, I might have gone for it. But it began to seem to me that for 12.5 million dollars forms the basis for a mighty good business plan. I am trying to confirm that it is a scam, but until that time, I thought I would alert you all. FWIW, they made scambusters. Now, youre all going to write back telling me that OF COURSE its a scam; why am I so late to the party? Signed, Your Naïve Old Yankee Skinflint. Nicholas S.
