It did stop being funny, didn't it? And just became appalling.
And I agree, skepticism is one thing, but the sheer trollery that went on there - the woman in question supplied screen-caps in the comments - is one of the most horrible things I have ever seen.
And when you compare that with the laptop thing - it's a stupid comparison, really. They aren't even on the same scale. I mean, they could have both have been scams. But if they were true - Well, in one case, some woman would need to rely on public access computers. In the other, someone might die.
