Maria Gallercia asked:


I am a businesswoman and a self-guided investor who is also a caretaker for my elderly father, always try to comparison and bargain shop, do online banking, love e-mailing people and social networking, downloading from download.com, find recipes, and so much more on the Internet. I practically “live” on the ‘net. I have a wireless network at the house (and business), but I am focus on the home right now. I currently use both Firefox and Safaria. What do you think about Flock? I am 26 years old. I am going to buy my 77 year old father a netbook on after-Christmas sale. What would be the best browser for him? All he wants to do is online banking, e-mailing, and Skype.

Thank you as advance as I truly appreciate you helping me de-clutter my computers at home.

BRAT asked:


Me and my husband did…since last year when I got my new Verizon phone, I started receiving these text messages that I thought were just advertisements for some match-making thing…the texts said something about “soulmate love” and $9.99, but I always deleted those as soon as I received them and never, ever replied or texted back anything. I never thought anything else about it until recently when my husband (who pays the bill online) was comparison shopping the plans so we can upgrade… and he found that we have been charged for over a year for these texts I’d been receiving. I never received any services…no horoscopes, no whatever they are…but we were charged all this time, and it was $20.00 per month and once it was $40 in addition to our normal cell phone bill. He never though much about our bill being $20 more…he thought I’d been texting my Mom a lot (who lives in another state) and he just paid the bills and was done with it. Last December, it was $40 more and he did mention to me about it being a lot higher but I told him I didn’t understand and that I had not been texting her much at all.

So, by accident he found out that we’ve paid about $400 more than we ever should…for services we never signed up for or agreed to !! We complained to Verizon and they eventually credited our account for $60 (they could only go back 3 months, they said) and we filed a FRAUD complaint with them. They also gave us the number to contact the company charging these fees, which is MOBILE MESSENGER, who also used names like soulmatelove.com and MMTXT that appears on your bill. They’re all the same company and my husband researched the internet and found that the man that is behind this whole scam, and who is cheating tons of people around the WORLD out of money and wasting their time, as well…because they have to fight with their service carrier to get their money back, or some of it…he is living in Australia and there have been lawsuits against him in the past or maybe currently, I hope. He is a millionaire now because of his LOW-LIFE way of doing business, because he’s too sorry to get a REAL JOB like most other people ! There are many class-action lawsuits going on because of these fraudulent text charges and we should all be aware and watch your cell phone bills carefully. If you find that you’re having this same problem, DO something about it and complaint, file a fraud report, etc.

I found this information on the man who supposedly owns this company–do with it what you may :

CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT VERIZON WIRELESS AND OTHER CARRIERS ARE ALLOWING THIS TO HAPPEN ??? Knowing that there are all of these lawsuits going on and unauthorized charges…and yet they let these THIEVES continue to use THEM to do their billing !! They must make a profit on the transactions, so they are just as guilty UNTIL DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT AND STOP DOING BUSINESS WITH THESE GUYS.

Have you had similar experiences and if so, please share them here on Yahoo Answers…maybe one day we can do something to stop this junk from happening anymore.

Thanks for any input you have !

Stina asked:


I had an acer laptop that I shared with my fiance and kids for nearly 2 years. However during our recent moved it got badly damaged and I could not afford to replace it. We have struggled without a pc for nearly 2 months and now trying to get settled in our new place, I am realising just how badly we need a pc. My fiance is currently looking for an additional job and I am trying to care for 3 kids on limited budget in a new area. Just for email, maps and some comparison shopping it will make a huge difference to have internet access. Plus my daughter is in 3rd grade and would love to do some school stuff on the computer. Does anyone know how/where I can find a very basic, durable, pc for a discounted price?
