Traders beware island scam

May I point out that this is not the same thing as capitalizing on an individual's keyboard mistake?

Of course we can agree to disagree.

Option exchanges are "Institutional Fraud".

Maybe there is a great service we do for humanity after all ...

What happened to the gentleman part?

:D

Schmucks make more money than gentlemen ...
 
Never said you were a schmuck. I just wasn't sure that a 'true gentleman' would pick off some poor schmuck's clerical error.

I will say this, though. When you pick off an honest man, he learns to be more careful. So it's all good, I suppose. Some of it is, anyway.

But the way you were disagreeing with me was gentlemanly indeed. However, if Metooxx is right, you probably don't want to be a gentleman anymore.

Are you saying it is more ethical to take money from an honest man than a crooked man?
 
Nope. It might be more ethical to pick off a crook, though. But I wouldn't recommend stooping to his tactics.

say, guess who's back, with yet a new name? (another thread).
