Am I terrible because none of it bothers me and I just have to think if this would be disturbing to a normal person?
I'm not saying you're terrible, but if people have gone missing in your area and witnesses describe hearing loud sounds that sounded like REEEEEEEE before the victims disappeared, it would make a lot of sense.

Question for committee: I have a client that has a basic understanding of his finances and he knows to not trust poeople online. When he buys things online he uses a $25 card from walmart that charges $3.85ish activation fee. Someone convinced him thats the best way to protect his bank account and still shop online. That sound ridiculous to me. what would be his other safe options?

Lol what

edit: kryss @kryss's response was better, I was hoping I'd just misread.
At best it was some sort of sarcastic comment about there not being work, because I don't see any batches posted on the last couple pages.

You can just keep track of your account online, see what's being spent where, call the bank if there's any problems, do chargeback if something was put on your credit card that you didn't buy, etc. There's really no need to only buy things online using a gift card/cash card unless you're super paranoid about everything.

His debit/credit/whatever form of electronic money he uses at walmart still could get intercepted or stolen in some mass leak taking him back to square one.

He should see if his debit card provider provides a one time virtual number that can be generated.

Thanks again for participating in our study last week. As a participant in the academic study in which we asked you to play the Snake game for a little while, we are pleased to make a fully functional version of this game available for you to enjoy. This version also has a new feature: From the menu, you can now select from four different game speeds. Try "insane" if you're feeling brave!

To play the game (for as short or as long as you wish), simply click the following link:
I just got an email from 1985
