That was an outline for the 1st segment of a 90 day marketing plan. They agreed to a VERBAL contract via text meesage service called ICQ for a 90 day contract at 850.00 per week.
that makes the CONTRACT worth 10k in ANY court in THIS country.

Hmm. It's really interesting. I know nothing about US courts, indeed, but it seems a bit arguable that ICQ log can be a proof. Are you sure? I thought only signed written contracts have power in US.
And I guess you need at least to prove that you communicated via ICQ with a person who was empowered to make such contracts. For instance, what if it was just some clerk who stole your ideas and made them look as his own?
Anyway, I will watch my ass from now on, ICQing with US people
Serge - it doesn't matter the idea of opening off-shore accounts is wrong at all. But I agree with you. They have to provide a correct information to their possible customers.
