Whoa, did u make a police report or something?

Whoa, did u make a police report or something?

No police report because the CC company or the porn sites could not identify the user. the CC company was very good about removing all the charges and making the process easy.

Well, does non-paying hosting customers count? If so over 2 years probally about $100 and once was $15 that a customer used a stolen credit card. His account was suspended the first day of service but not in enough time before sending out lots of spam.

Hehe how much did you pay them so the wife/girlfriend didnt see the charges on the statement

$100 is two years of hosting is pretty good I think Robert

I've lost money once, but only $5 buying a game for my pocket PC which said it would work, but didnt support my device type even though it said it did specifically. I couldnt get it back, but it wasnt much.

Lost $50 on an auction, then the same Cow tried to get me to send her more money. Never did get help from Ebay but this was before all the stuff they have in place now. Freckled

I think its very easy to lose money on the net since a lot of people buy things without checking if there is an address, phone number etc. available to contact the seller so they can get away with it

Well that's true, I lost money too on eBay, I ordered 4 Memory's that where at a Low-Price and they shipped some Rocks

 

[BlackStorm]

Do you mean rocks as in stone rocks?

Yes

 

[darkcurves]

Oh mannnn. That is insulting.

 

[Decker]

Why even bother shipping - that's just taking the proverbial
