tdog 0 #1 April 7, 2006 So, after I got 390 and counting fake registrations for our CSL league, (because I was offering free teeshirts to those who register...) I decided to search the net... This is what wuffos say about us... http://www.fatwallet.com/forums/messageview.php?catid=22&threadid=599904&highlight_key=y&keyword1=skydiving http://forums.slickdeals.net/showthread.php?sduid=105270&t=228549 So, since I just offered a bunch of scammers teeshirts for $15 including shipping - anyone else who is a real skydiver who wants one - PM me... The best reply on all the fake registrations, about coaching history... QuoteI had many coaches, dont remember their names. God, I love it when people BS. Here is something one scammer wrote... Do you think it is true? QuoteI was trying to get this for my daughter who is in the 82nd airborne div. of the army at Fort Bragg N.C. she will be leaving for Iraq in Aug. for 2 years..she has jumped numerous times and is currently deployed to Fort Polk for more training before deploy If it is, then I will send a free teeshirt... Anyone work at these places that can verify a name? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhreeZone 20 #4 April 7, 2006 I've got FatWallet's RSS feed to my homepage. I logged in this morning and saw it there. I had to laugh knowing what you were about to go through since anything that gets posted there they end up getting hundreds of requests for. I'm usually a lurker and will grab a few of the bargins as I see them.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tdog 0 #5 April 7, 2006 QuoteI had to laugh knowing what you were about to go through since anything that gets posted there they end up getting hundreds of requests for. The delete button is right between the up arrow and the insert button... I opened the database, copied the table for a backup, and hit delete on everyone who registered who was not a skydiver (sort by date, state, etc) Easy... 5 minutes or less. But, traffic to the site has been great. And a few people are already wanting to buy the shirts... I am just a little upset that the free shirts were stuck between free jock-itch gel and deodorant in the lists on those sites... I even met a few skydivers who actually e-mailed me who also watch FW... Kind of cool to talk with them online... Anyway - gotta run... 1st meet is tomorrow... You gonna be there for your free shirt? Oh, I forgot - it would be a long drive to the DZ for ya. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I signed up but am grounded now Do I still get my shirt?May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.

Bolas 5 #7 April 7, 2006 Free T-shirts is how Pinky and The Brain got people to go to the second Earth they built out of paper mache. No one can resist free t-shirts. Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
