When I get phone calls like this, the conversation usually goes something like: me: I won!! Really! Oh man, that's awesome! them: Yes. We just need your bank account number to deposit your winnings. me: Oh man, I would, but my wife & I are going through a nasty divorce and she has my bank account locked down. Besides, I don't want her to find out about it. How about if I just come by and pick up the check in person; where is your office? them: We're in another state, and we have to have the account number for tax purposes. me: well, ok. I suppose I can go open an account with no money in it that my wife doesn't know about. Can I have your phone number to call you and let you know when it's open? them: --click-- + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Chris Barnes AOL IM: CNBarnes [log in to unmask] Yahoo IM: chrisnbarnes Computer Systems Manager ph: 979-845-7801 Department of Physics fax: 979-845-2590 Texas A&M University
