Well, yeah. You'll get less of them as a felon.

20 yrs with one bank, never paid credit card interest, perfect credit score, just closed on a no cost 3.9%, 30 year fixed, bought house in 2003 and have 60% equity, student loans paid off with one bonus 5 years after graduating.

In a word, the banks love me.

Until the surveillance video comes it and you get a 6 month sentence and $10,000 fine for fraud.

Man, you people are dumb. But if u lived within your means my bank wouldn't be giving me free flights every year.

Are you kidding, there's plenty of Americans who live beyond their means and don't pay their bills already. I believe they've worked the deadbeats into their cost structure. It's why I have 4 free flights again this year morons.

The only downside I can see at all is less junk mail for my worm-bin.

I've always wanted to go on a crazed weekend spending spree, max out everything and then call them on Monday and let them know I lost my wallet and none of those charges are mine. You aren't liable for fraud after all.

I figure you only get to do this once. So you'll never want to lose your wallet, they might not be so kind about it the second time.

If you get thousands of people to do it on one day in many locations, it is very effective.

I can also tell you that most of the messages you get inserted into these envelopes are religious in nature - mostly Chick Tracts. If there is a person most likely to be saved by Chick Tracts, it is the person who opens response envelopes. Very rarely, there is hand drawn pornography.

If you watch the video all the way through, he suggests a novel way to get rid of all your OTHER junk mail, along with the credit card offers.
