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 weren’t 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, you’re all going to write back telling me that OF COURSE it’s a scam; why am I so late to the party?
Signed,
Your Naïve Old Yankee Skinflint.
