Re: [atlarge-discuss] $1 verification.

["Micheal Sherrill" <micheal@beethoven.com>]

There are many avenues to pursue regarding verification of members.  PayPal would seem to be a quick and easy (read cheap) way to prove certification as a real, and answerable, human.  One lets PayPal do all the bookwork and for US$1 the signature is assured.  If it is good enough for the credit card companies it is good enough for me.

All,

I have received $1 from Mark Poole and have duly refunded it to him.  He 
is a verified Paypal member under the name of Mark Poole.  

I believe we should seriously consider a Paypal transaction as ONE 
possible manner of member verification.  It doesn't cost anything and 
the money (in this case $1.00) can be refunded within 30 days with no 
charge to either party!

I think the very first thing this organization needs to do is to set up 
a Membership Committee whose responsibility it will be to verify the 
identity of potential members.  Of course, all current members will need 
to be validated along with any future potential members.
