The general point of law here is that no amount of paperwork will make a transaction real if there was no money paid.

I  have received a number of chat inquiries and registration statements in which homeowners have fat-fingered their own email addresses. They are probably thinking that the free service we say we are offering is just a sham. But the real problem is that I have no way of contacting them if their email address does not exist.
