i found this website that actually lets you log on to a vertual camera that patrols the mexican border and you get to report suspicious activity. i think its so cool, i watched it all day at work yesterday and seen some crazy things, its so cool.

well the website is:

www.blueservo.net

Wow, that's crazy.DH is pursuing a degree in criminal justice right now and for one of the classes he's doing a paper on border control. I'm sure he'll be interested in this!

I clicked and they wanted me to join with e-mail address, etc. Forget that! What kind of scam are they running.

Cool! It's working now! Yeah, just because it needs you to register doesn't mean it's a scam. Now if they needed a registration fee, or subscription fee, address and phone number, than that might make me think it's a scam. But yeah, it's not a scam.

And so your work could pay you to watch the cams all day instead of what you were supposed to be doing. Sounds like you're in the wrong line of work!


ETA: Yikes. I just re-read what I wrote and it came out wrong. I just meant that you could probably get paid to do what you were doing for free.
