Brother you need to get a legal consultation. I don't know how it is there but generally here in the states theres plenty of lawyers that do this free. There is also many free sites online with lawyers that can help you with these questions. Getting legal advise from just anyone online is a bad idea. Best of luck...
Lots of these are companies and not individuals. And they'r not in some little hut in Africa, but usually in a city like Accra. So, maybe not any need to feel sorry for them. Besides, things are tough everywhere. Personally, I figure for them time is money, so I like to string them along for a ride. Mess with there heads a little. Outplay the player, lol. :) Toksa
