I tried this on my PC's. I think I must have smiled or something when I
the Johnson gave them the credstick though, because they moved the funds
off the stick and specifically told me that they were throwing it away
before they got back to their regular doss' or hangouts.

It didn't work, and now they know the idea so I can't easily pull it off
again.
