There is a big difference between advertising your services and trying to literally steal people's money.

This is an underrated distinction. Sadly, the line is so much more blurred now than even when I was a kid in the 90s.

There are so many businesses now which exist mainly to cheat you, operating at the very edge of what’s technically legal, and relying on their customers not really understanding the full terms of the deals they’re agreeing to. It’s sickening.

Not when half those "advertised services" are in fact scams.
