      Damn I’m glad you said that. I wasn’t really interested in reading about people who would do this, but I went back, and what a total shitshow. Norovirus not required.

      edit: also regarding the new company helping these people in need

      Its website currently advertises “boutique cruise liners” selling duty free gold bullion, diamonds and gems onboard.

      Where’s that tiny violin?

        It’s the company that’s the idiot! Those people were essentially scammed. It’s not their fault.

          The customers haver marked them selfs as idiots and have a whole fleet of fske cruise lines trying to sell them more voyages. It’s the exact same as all the crypto scams of the past 10 years.

      It’s a news article, not a tv show. There’s nothing to “spoil” lol.

        I disagree. What I was going to say would mess up the reading adventure of this article. It was so good I read it aloud to my wife. lol

          I won’t open any links unless someone let’s me know what it’s about in the comments, and it seems like something worth reading.

          In other words, no “spoilers”, no read.
