Tightwad Bank (dot net)
Are you a tightwad? Maybe you should consider opening an account at Tightwad Bank, a real bank based in Kansas with two branches: A head branch in Reading, Kansas, and one recently opened location in Tightwad, Missouri.
I don't know if I trust any bank who would open a branch in Tightwad, MO for what appears to be no other reason than to change the name of their bank to Tightwad Bank. Doesn't seem far fetched to think that once these guys figure out they can open up a branch in South America and transfer your money out of the country they'll be on the first flight to Belize.
And here's another odd conundrum: Since they are using the URL "tightwadbank.net," one would expect that "tightwadbank.com" was already taken.
Well, tightwadbank.com is registered, by, uh, Tightwad Bank. It forwards to tightwadbank.net.
Turns out "dot com" isn't good enough for the bigwigs over at Tightwad! Only "dot nets" for them, those arrogant bastards!
It all seems a bit fishy if you ask me.
