Hi Hellbornepathogen

First, I don't think that people who get scammed are "dummies", I believe they are naive or internet novices but certainly not dummies.

And I got the impression that you had paid for FREE LW by your reply to Lynny's mp3downloading question by saying:

Quote:
I think you might not have read the terms thoroughly enough. I know the site you are mentioning, what they do is they have grouped pricing plans. You probably chose one that's every so often your card is charged a certain amount. So you're still getting the service, they are just charging you for maybe 3 months in advance or something.
Group pricing plans? How do you know this unless you actually bought into the scam.

Also, there was another reply this time to Richard about the dangers of file sharing, you said:

Quote:
I normally don't enable sharing files, so you might want to do the same.
This to me seemed anti-P2P, undermining the very thing that makes LW such fun to use. And, pushing the envelope a bit further, this seems the type of thing someone would advise because he got hit (scammed) and wanted to hit back.

Still, my interpretation of your replies could be wrong, if so then I apologise.
