I was at level 1 and went to Gold. I figured they were just adding a new tier on top of everything to extract more money.

It's utterly unacceptable. I have my own ways of managing my contacts, materials I send them, ways I file the mails, etc. I don't need to be protected by Big Brother. Having them log back in to see my mail is beyond absurd as a business decision. Who came up with this hare-brained idea?

One of the things that Capitol One caught was that they had some way of

knowing a number associated with the emplyee who supposedly signed the

cashier's check, and that employee did not exist.

Just to add to the list, I got one and when he gave me the bit about needing to send a check for a larger amount I got suspicious and checked with VRBO about known scams. They tipped me off to the procedure.When the check arrived it was a cashiers' check drawn on Capitol One Bank. I took it over to the nearest Capitol One branch and they confirmed it was a forgery. Good one too, complete with watermarks, etc.

I think when he tries to follow up with me I'll tell him he's fallen for a scam - I'm a phony front orgaization headquartered in the Ukraine, bilking people into sending deposits on non-exsitent properties.
