  2. Pat!

    Your ads on “the death of cash” are total BS! As a former member of the Bars of Delaware, Georgia, and Alabama, as well as a retired trust officer with Regions Bank, Birmingham, AL., I am informing you that there are long standing federal laws protecting U.S.citizens against the kind of risks about which you are “preaching!”

    I respectfully ask you to cease and desist your misleading and bogus TV ads for the benefit of U.S. citizens.

    Your actions are shameful, to say the least, and coming from a person of your stature, downright disgusting ??!
