Of course, if you're dealing with BRIS, and basically giving them all your personal info, you're making it easy on the criminal element.
Make them work for your personal info: Phish, trojan, etc.

Your info is VERY secure with BRIS (and the rest of the technically inept companies out there).

Definitely

Hey, those PPs are worth the risk.

That's creative. Thug/3rd-world tactics on the web. I love it.
