Yeah, that or something similar would be safer for sure. Well, I lost 65 bucks, I didn't assume people would commit a crime for 2-digit sums of money. I don't think I can get it back, so I call it a learning experience. To be fair, similarly sketchy deals did work in the past and led to very nice acquisitions, so over all I still came out positive being naive. This scam had a lot of red flags though, so I have better judgement next time.
