Your early comments on this thread said to ban all Tracfone purchases. That is what I was responding to.

That's the part of this puzzle that doesn't make sense to me. They could have bought 50-100 a day, one at a time and we would be thing, America loves these things and not having this conversation. It is very high profile to buy bulk though. Are they for something else? Are they arrogant and don't care if we know they are up to something? I don't know.
