OK hypothetical:

Somebody has an informal agreement to buy something.

Unexpectedly, the market for said product instantly dries up and investors bail.

Guy backs out of agreement because he'd rather not busto himself for a bag of magic seeds.

You really call that a scam?

It's a pretty stupid person who would let their own sense of honor make them buy a worthless product. How many of you hold yourself to the same standards?

I thought it was pretty clear this was post Uigea not pre?

This deal was consumated after UIGEA and my sites were offered at a large discount and up for sale only because of the changing climate for affiliate sites. Kyle and his partner saw a good deal and after going over all of my numbers (back end stats, P and L's, etc.) made an offer to purchase, face to face. I wouldn't drop my price, they said "we want it, will you come here for 1 week and help us (basically consult as part of price) get rollin. I offered my consulting for 1 week and we all shoke hands. Thats a deal.

Heres my problem with this deal. Don't promise 40K in 30 days (I think this is correct but not positive on exact days) then 37 days later not have 10% of it. I said, you really can't come with 4K? When you said 30 days for 40K was no problem?

Why not just say "my lawyers say no". That would have been fine and I would have said shame on me for believing their word. And why wait till past the deadline to say something?

We had 6 or 8 emails going back and forth about $$$$$$. And why they didnt have any. No mention of anything except wanting my sites and trying to gather cash.

No Money. Period.
