I have this friend, who wants to rent a movie, then tell Netflix she never got it, then have them send out another same DVD, and she would then keep the
original. For free.
I know this won't work. How would Netflix prevent such scams? I need to tell her before she does this.. |

I'm sure she could get away with it maybe once, but after that, they would catch on.

I would make them sign for future shipments.
Why is your friend such a tech retarded thief, everyone knows you can download full DVDs torrents, of pretty much every movie released on DVD. |

Or just rip the fucking thing and burn a copy. Or put a fucking crowbar in her wallet and buy a $5 used copy. Jesus.

Why doesn't she just go into Blockbuster and put the movie under her #*%++#. Half the time the beeper doesn't go off.

Sometimes anti likes to type "*@#$# " so people think he swears.

I don't think you could get away with it much. And it used to be you could log in and say you sent your movie and if they didn't get it (they usually
get mine the next day) they would automatically ship one the next day if you notified them. Now they make you wait a few days before shipping one out.
 So if
the post office is slow, I have to wait longer to get my movie.

I'm sure your friend could get away with that one or two times. I 1 time sent a video back through mail (and it sucked!) and noticed it has been weeks
since I put it in the mail so I contacted them and they sent me my next video on the list (not the same one), but they should have sent me two! Anyways, if
your friend is trying to scam Netflix.. I would question her friendship with you. Is she using you? I think it's wrong to do such things.

Speaking of scams, I hate the one at the library I work at. We know it's a scam, but we cant say anything when someone asks us where it is. The scam people
say they're with Disney, and tell people that their little kid(s) can be the next Hannah Montana or whatever her name is. Tons have people show up for
auditions and they pay a lot of money too, and it's sad because it's one big scam. One time they were handing out flyers at the beach and they gave one
to a man who really worked for Disney, well the cops came to stop the scam and stuff and these scam people went away for a couple of months, but now
they're back.

My dearest Amykins......I would never scam you or use you in any way.
My only want is to hold you close in my arms forever. My intentions are clearly honorable. Won't you give your sweet soul and tender, delectable body to me? :c ? |
