The email sounded blatant and covert. But I am also intrigued by your remark "If MindComet had gone through legitimate channels and actually offered to pay me to write reviews, then my opinion towards this viral marketing campaign would be different".

I'll be back... Cheers, Susan Wow… good detective work… they’re no doubt wishing you were on their payroll now, lol.
