SECOND LIFE TERMINAL 1

Well there is a Ginko ATM out there taking deposits and not refunding the funds but the Midas ATM did return the funds along with a notecard..this is just a touch on the financial state of SL. Why is there an ATM of Ginkos still around and able to accept funds?..It bebaffles me!!!!! I couldnt for some reason put all of the films in one large file so this is in three parts. Its an education to see how many ATM's and Banking institutions there are in a virtual world. Some even gleaming with Real Life credit cards stuck on them. On one of the signs advertising along side a bank sign they even state buy lindens with your Mastercard. That sign by the way was owned by one of the biggest cons of 2007 in SL which really disappointed me.. So A Ginko ATM still processes funds and is owned by someone who has been around since 2004. Hmm shouldnt they know better or have they done this repeatedly and the sign still owned by the man who took allot of people still owns property. Its funny how SL can reposses others belongings so quickly and there be no trace of them but why are there still signs out there owned by this other person? Allot of these banks that are popping up also started right before and after the two major cons of 2007 in June owned by pretty new members or r they. I asked one owner of a bank that was present while I visited thier institution "is this your bank? His name was on his head he was also the sim owner. I was clicking the objects to view the owners..like the ATM's ...ones that had the mastercard logos on it. He said "NO they are not" and then disapeared. His name was all over them. Why did he say no and why did he leave? So many so quick to entice you to deposit your virtual money into thier institutions or is it virtual money? When you can buy virtual currency all over the world at different rates with your real life master card / debit card / paypal account isnt that a real life transaction and when you can cash out after you have made a boodle ...sell your lindens in exchange for real life American /Euro /Denero's / yen /pounds ..$$$$ whatever you call them..isnt it real hard cash? So these folks out there in Linden Land swindling your $$ are they not crooks in real life then? This is no Monopoly Game to me. So if someone steals and runs from sl and you can catch up to them...cant they be prosecuted in Real Life for theft? Can some one please enlighten me?

Wasnt really a rant. More like a wake up call or awareness. I lost a bit but not much compared to good friends of mine in SL. I am very seasoned in this subject. Iv learned my lessons long ago. Not Physical? Sorry but its a very tangible asset loss we r talking about to some. Thank u for your reply.

Why would I pay so much for someone else's half-ass''d characters with shoddy performance and lag? Seems like it would just frustrate me.
