Opening someone elses mail box is a federal offense.

A misdemeanor is a small offense and in ND they take serious drug offenses up to the felony level REEEAL quick.  

@Rick Baggenstoss  I grew up in Glenn Garry glen ross my dad was a land man just like Al Pacino... and Jack Lemmon would have done better if he did what my dad did.. my dad bought a printing press and I had to make door hangers after work then on weekends I had to put them out door to door.. so my dad got 20 leads a week and did not use the company leads like everyone else.. soon was number one then in 2 years started his own company... thanks for the memories.. my exerpince with this company is on the front lines one of my vendors bought a property through these yahoos  total fabrication on the rehab and resale value these guys are ruthless in their approach and in my mind have little concern other than to make a fee and move on totally CAVEAT EMPTOR if working with these folks..
