There's another catch to buying the expensive car from
Mircosoft (Office). Sometime, you see, the bumper, or the
roof (it's a convertible), or the window will bust.
Intruders will then drive your car into a wall (SPAM), or a
tree (DDOS/zombie armies). Sometimes they will also steal
and replicate whatever information you have on the driver's
seat and the back seat, later pretending to be the owners of
the car. When you contact the police (for patches) you will
be ignored for 3 months, if not forever.
Best wishes,
Roy
