Those Rocky Mountain admins are getting quite greedy,.. they are doing a feeler for a used 2017 boat for $220,500 when a brand new one in $175,000.

These are getting outta control. Still pretty sweet if you could win. But 1-1470 chance is still better then the lotto for $150. No way this one will fly at $220,500 and that many transfers would red flag at any bank...I would think anyway.

I would guess they have multiple accounts at multiple banks. I'm still trying to find out the legalities of doing these things but I think it's more risk than reward for the "sellers"

TBH I think this group is getting money hungry and it's like cocaine to them and I will not be buying into their waffles for now. From what I have seen they are only using 1 or 2 emails for the deposit when you purchase a spot, but if they will be getting 1400+ deposits for $150 into their account it's gonna flag. I have only noticed it with this one group so far,.. the others usually keep waffles reasonable.

If we do get into something like this,.. it will have to treated in a respectable and honest matter,.. start small and move higher and set limits.

I read up on the algc website.
Looks and smells like a raffle.
Hope they have good lawyers.

Booze, smokes and gambling are all opportunities the government will not pass up to sin tax.

Yes .... it’s pure greed!!! I like the comment “it’s like cocaine” and not to mention the boat advertised is a 2016 not a 2017!!!!
But hey living like rock stars in FM...

They booted some people from the group who had paid.
Some rage is building.

Like I have mentioned I have chosen to not participate in this group and I leaving it, the other groups I am in seem to be pretty solid as of now,.. especially PP, the admin is a sweetheart.

I like the groups where the seller is the one who accepts the e transfers, not the admins. That one above looks dicey to me. Like a few others that I’m in though.
