I'd think the same, but then you shouldn't under-estimate the
impudence practiced by some people on the net.

Ref: see the thread about Venkat on the comp.forsale.* newsgorups
(look for "Venkat" in Dejanews).  I'm not saying he's a crook, but it
does make you think again before doing business over the net.

General suggestion - someone (on il-board?) gave a great suggestion -
check over DejaNews about anyone you are going to do business with.

(checked cheap*bytes there and haven't found anything so far).
