Very good info Art, I usually just avoid all promos we receive by text because I felt they were all scams, so now I can see if any are real and possibly avail of some. :89:

Nothing new to add Bubba, but the same text scams still continues! Just best to ignore them, since there's nothing one can do about them! Edited by Art2ro

I had one asking for a min of 5 pesos so that we could chat the last time I was there..... the girlfriend was very suspicious when I asked her to translate.

You have lots right here - myself included! We may not be able to sit down and share a cup of coffee / tea / chicory as the darn wires are too small to squeeze through but we are all here for you if you ever need us!
