Re: [ga] Re: GA/DNSO Funding

Sorry. I would have to know a lot more about Andrew before sending any
money. Why is someone trying to impersonate you? Why isn't there a routing
number? Who authorized this fund? Who assigned him as Treasurer of this
fund?

ANY fund should include an account that is associated with a proper tax
identification number and within the bylaws of such a constituency or
organization. There is a lot more to this than simply saying hey send money,
I'll hold onto it for you.

Maybe I missed something here. If so, point it out, but since I have quite a
bit of experience in fundraising and administering a nonprofit organization,
I have to say this doesn't sound . . . let's just say . . . a legitimate
approach to funding anything.

Is e-gold the one that was on the news where the guy is going to court over
securities fraud or whatever? A little research is needed here.
