NLC automated system stupidity

I live in Northern California. Last night I got one of these requests for a signing in Honolulu, HI. Am I really the closest Notary they could find?!?

What fee did you quote them?

When they've emailed me and I go on the site, the largest fee you can select is $85.00! For e-docs. And we are expected to bid against other notaries to get the pittance if we are the only or low bidder. I DON'T THINK SO.

I occasionally get bizzare requests from them for closings in nearby Maryland and D.C. but I am a notary only for Virginia. And some of the ones in my state that they have offered are up to 100 miles away for a grand fee of $80! Go figure.

Unfortunately, I am not commissioned in the state of Hawaii... Otherwise they could pay ME to go there and do it!
