And what's stopping someone who is fare dodging from texting a deliberate hoax to make sure the inspectors go on another train?chrisLGThu, 10 Jul 2008 12:53:51 -0000http://www.smstextnews.com/2008/07/shop_a_fare_dodger_by_text.html#comment-853663The sending them to another train is a good one... I think that this is a bit of a silly service as its doing someone else's job for them. <br><br>Why not go the whole hog and follow them to work / home, take a pic and mms it to them... <br><br>Would the networks, who are the biggest robbers after all, reduce fares if everyone paid... <br><br>I don't think so....Mark TThu, 10 Jul 2008 08:57:01 -0000http://www.smstextnews.com/2008/07/shop_a_fare_dodger_by_text.html#comment-853277How much does one have to pay to report a fare dodger?
