    <SPAN>No way is this a scam. Just think about it for a minute. How could this scam work? You think the $60 the guy charges is worth the trouble of a putting a product together that doesn’t work?

    Let's just walk thru this for a sec. You load this software on your PC and point it to your poker account. You give it the basic information it needs, your user name, password, and little stuff like that. Not that it really needs that stuff; I mean it’s already on your computer. How easy is it to have a keystroke logger and/or data sifter built in? Hell within 24 hours it would know more about you than your own mother does. But that’s beside the point because it’s a stupid thought.

    Anyway, so now this thing has control of your poker account. Wait another quick side note! What else would be cool is once it has your password it can also get the email address used on your poker account. I'm sure no one would ever think of doing this, but the bot could even transfer money from your pay site accounts like FirePay for example. With access to your FirePay comes access to your bank account. This would be a very, very convenient feature.

    Ok I kind of forget the point I was trying to make here so I’m just going to stop writing.<SPAN> </SPAN>But like I said, no way is this a scam.</SPAN>

    PRICELESS, Troll...

    ... and maybe a good deal closer to reality than any of us would care to imagine.
