I read this page: http://carboncopypro.com/about.php to try and work out what they're all about. Discovered nothing except a couple of typos, and the attached witticism. So the people most likely to get something out of this group are not so much a particular sort of people, just gullible. Oh, sorry, I mean "optimists ... who see the best side of everyone" (and presumably don't question anything too much) ;) Good luck extracting yourself from this mob, Pauline. I personally don't like your chances of either striking it rich with them, or fully escaping their clutches.
