"Never give out your password or credit card number in an instant message conversation."<br>-- MSN Messenger<br><br>DAMN! just when I was going to give this dude my Credit Card number, MSN reminded me that i shouldn't do it. I'm so glad that they reminded me.~

LOL. Actually, you'd be amazed at the number of stupid people out there that will give out that type of information.<br><br>AOL members are especially easy targets. Which is probably the reason AOL tries to keep their members corraled within the confines of AOL internet space. They tend to be a naive lot.

hey, umm.. In order to receive a credit card, you should have to be able to say no to the following questions:<br><br>Do you use AOL?<br>Do you want to use AOL?<br>Will you ever use AOL?<br><br>Cause anyone that does use AOL is a menace to society and should be hurt.

My parents and my older brother both use AOL.  It's the choice of the stupid generation :)<br><br>Well, no, that's mean.  They just don't know any better.<br><br>Not that I should talk, I'm stuck with MSN for another 2 years.. but I have a really kick ass TV! :D

I started out on AOL a few years back, before they had a huge explosion of members. I think there were only 1 million back then. I got rid of the account within a year.<br><br>My parent just got rid of AOL, and love their new cable connection. My brother still uses AOL, because he doesn't know any better.<br><br><>< or fishin' is pretty easy on AOL. IM random people and tell them you are an admin verifying their account and you need their password. It's scary how many people comply.
