People don't just randomly send other people money by email without first agreeing on the method of exchange: Google Wallet, PayPal, Bitcoin, etc. And none of those send encrypted emails as confirmations. (They probably ought to sign those emails, but that's a different problem.)

This is cute:
http://www.bravaviewer.com/secure-document-viewer

"Content Sealed Format (CSF) is our proprietary encrypted neutral format that is ideal for secure, convenient file sharing. Similar to PDF and TIFF, CSF is an accurate, encrypted rendition of the source document file.

"CSF Secure document files can't be modified.

"Unlike PDF or TIFF, CSF is not an open format so no third party translators, editors or conversion tools exist to compromise content security."

I'm glad they have a free reader, but this is an egregious lie.
