Legacy Posted May 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 It sucks to be you, but that's honestly hilarious that you fell for that. It's [expletive]ty, but still. hahahahaha.Wow, really? Nice to see who the dicks on the site are. I paid 500, not 4000. Anyways, I went to the bank and filed a fraud attempt or something like that. I should be able to get 200 dollars back since I didn't pay the other 300 because I read the article. Should happen within 30 days. Gotta change my dad's credit card now because they have the info. The account is now frozen and we'll be getting a new one soon. I [expletive]ed up, but it should be fixed now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now he's just mad he's gotta change the numbers and do all this other stuff, but he's calmed down lol. Wow, that blows. What site did you get it from?I think it was either utorrents or torrentz.
