Faces the same problem and will disappear just as quick as it appeared. https://www.wepay.com/about/fees Who in their right mind would use this, when the fees are worse than Paypal? As much as I hate Paypal, and I get the psychological jollies from bashing it, it's not going anywhere, and...

Thanks guys, appreciate all the advice. I got my money back today after calling Paypal. After I got scammed the first time, I knew what precautions to take and what to say (and not say) to Paypal, thanks to people on this and other boards. I still would like to screw the little prick over...

I classified it as "Goods," even though it was virtual, and claimed he didn't send me my desktop computer, and I wanted my tracking number but he kept hanging up on me. (I learned my lesson about that long ago) Yea you're right, it's not my main focus, but since I've been active on here...

PPC-Coach.com comes to mind. I just got another email from that scam artist Will, starting yet ANOTHER "membership training" site. I stay on the email list just to laugh and feel superior to him every time he comes out with a new website -- he's made dozens and promotes them shamelessly, his...

Hey guys, my apologies if reposts aren't allowed. I posted this in the Shit List accidentally, but upon reflection, perhaps this is a better place, since he's not from BHW. If a mod sees this and wants to delete it, please do that instead of banning me! Long story short, I was scammed by a...

Hey guys, long story short, I was scammed by a guy for a few hundred USD. He's not a BHW member, but I thought you guys might have some advice. Maybe you think it's petty, but anyone who has been scammed knows the sinking feeling after you pay the money and the guy disappears forever. He's...

I'm sorry, maybe people will think I'm a careless asshole, but when I read people like this, who have absolutely nothing, and want everything handed to them -- but pay lip-service to stuff like ethics and commitment, thin veneers known as excuses -- and adopt a "victim" mentality, I think of...

Lol, after reading countless threads, csivirtualmastercard just screams "Scam by DemandIT, at your service!"

Thanks dude. Of everything I've been chewing on, this makes the most sense to me. Before I hadn't considered LR since I thought it was a big scam, but after doing due diligence it seems it's legitimate. And I believe that even if it turns out to be a huge scam and the founders all run, if you...

You might be best suited to answer my Q in the last post, about jurisdiction. I don't know where you or your company are located, but maybe a brief explanation of how the law works in your experience with regards to server location vs company location, especially with C&D orders, handing over...

Cheers, dude. I guess the issue isn't so much whether my info would be given out, it's whether they would have any info to begin with. To be honest, after going at this for a while my impression is that reputable hosts like theplanet, bluehost, one of those, are probably best, then just...

Hello, I posted on here recently about anonymous domain registration... after reading up on it the last week, I realize it's kind of a futile effort, and not worth it unless you're involved in something criminal. Now, what I'm after is an understanding of how registration works, and how an...

Yes, and look how well credit cards turned out. I left the US a few years ago, and it may surprise you to learn that much of the rest of the world does not use credit cards. The stereotypical "fat American" is not just the sad state of affairs of our health, it's also our attitude, that we can...

Problem is any time I've done that, it gets limited immediately. What's the trick to doing this? I set up Stealth Account A, and used all legit-looking USA info. I sent it $200. I tried to pay someone $175 from it... got limited immediately.

We're saying the same thing -- gotta read the rest of the posts :P

I'll be honest lancis, sounds to me like someone needs to sell their BitCoin :) And we can go back and forth and say "no it's you who doesn't understand basic economics," but laws that have been in place for millennia don't change. English words do change, but not on a daily basis. currency...

I'm not sure where you got that, but no, I'm saying the opposite. Since USD is a fiat currency, it's essentially backed by nothing. There is a reason a nickel used to buy a lot 70 years ago, and buys nothing now. It's called inflation and it occurs because of the excessive printing of money...

Yeah dude for sure. While I have no doubt the creators are some very smart dudes, they don't understand basic economics. A currency that is not backed by hard assets is unsustainable. When you are receiving "nothing," i.e., bits of data, that's what you get -- nothing. And bits of data are...

Gentlemen and women: I have a US-verified, years-old Paypal with a CC attached, and a 0$ balance. I want to use this to pay a seller selling me web services. I don't want him to know my name. How to pay using this credit card, with or without Paypal? Cheers

I see. Well, any suggestions on a host would be greatly appreciated. Even though C&Ds are a concern, since apparently there's no possible way to avoid hiding the host, fast, intelligent support in a new host is now the most important. I'll look for a backup host and create a contingency...
