Also useful for getting good reviews for Belkin equipment posted on Amazon, etc.! (It's been in the news recently.)

I kinda like the idea, although I'm embarrassed at the world that makes it possible. To many people, the $10 that you're prepared to throw away on some trivial task is actual money and worth their time. Although the ones to whom that money would be life-changing generally don't have Internet access...

The $10 would be really worth it if they risked life and limb to go find the Z cache for you as well as solving it :D

And this is different from what Telstra, Foxtel, the major banks and any other big company has been doing for years when you innocently punch in that magic 1300 helpline number into your phone or the www.help website into your computer ? :lol:
Now you don't even need to live in India to join the ranks :D

Do you want them to wipe your butt for $10 too?
