I don't know, Skipp, but you're making me want a CP-200 of my very own
now... That wasn't the point was it?

Oh... about once every month or so I receive the scam email
requesting radio equipment prices and availability for a
"quick purchase" using a credit card.
Every one of these quick credit card purchases seems to be a
scam...
The funny part is almost every email scam request is for a bulk
purchase of Motorola CP-200 radios... Does the third world only
know of Motorola CP-200 portable radios?
This latest scam email requests not only the CP-200 radio price
and shipping... but now they're gettin' greedy asking for prices
on Thuraya Dual-Mode Satellite/GSM Phones.
Once in a while I reply with a crazy price quote and they fire
back with a list of Visa Cards to charge the purchase toward. I
used to call Visa and tell them about the problem... but the
Visa Card Corporation has their head firmly planted and there is
no easy way to turn in a fake charge report. Master Card seems
to be much better...
So... what's in your wallet?
cheers,
