That said, why in the fuck do I care about the OP, his list, imaginary or real, or what he is going to do with it? I don't know him, I don't talk to him, I don't do business with him, I wouldn't do business with him, I don't care if he lives or dies, and I wouldn't stop to piss on him if he was on fire. My reply was due to a reply that came from a post Barefootsies made, not the OP.

And besides, all this heat on this guy for what? He may just be trolling. All of us are SURROUNDED by people who do the same thing in this business, but do it for real, they just don't broadcast it on GFY. Stolen member lists, stolen affiliate lists, emails, credit card data, content, and so on. No one has problems with those people. WTF Bucks hacked NATS and stole data and are allowed to pin posts here for fucks sake. You can bet if this guy was paying a high PPS or bought drinks for everyone at the shows, no one would have a problem with him either. But, I digress. I'm the bad guy now. That's all that matters. Hey, here is an idea, why not start a new thread about it and start a GFY witch hunt?

My point was that if this guy was selling full details of members who had subscribed to a site that you or Barefootsies were a member of you would be right at the front of the lynch mob, but because it's data from an online london based bookmaker that neither of you use then what he is proposing to do appears to be less alarming to you.

It is not his data to sell or even use, it is not even a grey area, and the last thing that anybody here should be doing is giving any advice to this guy or anybody that could potentially be selling credit card numbers to the kind of people who would be in the market to buy such data.
