What if their database is empty?

  Well, then charging $10 to view it would clearly match the definition of fraud.

    Yes, but it's hard to prove. And they could stuff it with a few fake numbers so it's not technically empty.

  aren't they charging 10$ to check for you whether your number is in the database, not 10$ for full database acess?
  • praptak 14y ago
    That's the point - they can safely pocket the 10$ and return "this number is not in our database".

      Well, i assume they at least run a database query for giggles. I mean 10$ for a database query...SELECT Cash FROM USERS WHERE USERGULLIBILITY > 5 GO There's my 10$.
