fyi,

"The 5 Day Trial is 100 % Free for the First 5 Days - 
Cancel Before End of Trial and Nothing will ever be billed. 

"We Require Billing Information to distinguish users from one another"

Anyone claiming to require financial info for a "free" intro is highly
suspicious.

It is reported elsewhere that:

               The FamilyDiscovery.com Scam IS BACK!

                      GenealogyExperts.com


Also, www.ancestralquest.com is a rip off site that is part of a domain
name dispute with Incline Software, authors of the well respected
Ancestral Quest genealogy software ( http://www.ancquest.com ).
