Someone needs to call or email all the weekly publications that go around Brooklyn and Lakewood that contain advertisements for  CC farms or CC swiping and tell them to stop allowing those advertisements. (unless those publications are owned by the farms themselves...) This is destroying people's lives and needs to end.

Even better, place full page ads in these publications warning people of the dangers.

I am happy to contribute if someone want to start a collection to runs Dan's article in all the big (and small) Jewish papers.

But is it 8-9 business days yet?

9 business days not including Fridays is rediculous imho.
If you request on Thursday they only start counting on Monday so it can easily be 17-18 days.

Not true, they have millions of dollars of funding from investors, they may run behind during busy times but they're primary purpose for using you is not for your cash flow.

agreed that their primary need is not your cash flow but they definitely do not have enough cash on hand to cover  everything.

but no reason to assume buying groups can't get credit from a bank.  that is not why they need you

Buying group are a grey area and probably not as easy to get loans.
They do need you to bypass limits but just as well they need your cash flow.

For all those saying buying groups are risk free I would just like to say one of the of the big buying groups bounced more than one check on me.

and one more point. They have no problem writing a check on the spot. They are clearly not verifying each invoice at that point in time.

so basically buy a $25 BB phone ttlo hand deliver and pickup your full payment?

What are you disputing? There's evidence that people authorized charges.

but product/services were never received.
Not much too lose by trying (except they all think that somehow they will still be paid back).

yes and no, not if he needs ,20, 30, 50+ days to sell off inventory etc., if a developer is in middle of a project and investor pulls funds overnight and he sinks, does that make it a ponzi?

When you are swiping to pay back the first person (as clearly stated in his email) then you are running a Ponzi scheme.

I believe with the major buying groups it dosent happen

I'm just saying don't think a check is as good as cash and that there is no risk.

If you ship to your own house and drop off by them locally, you get the check on the spot, so your risk is minimal.

I've had checks bounce from buying groups.......

Well good luck with that when he finds the WhatsApp message that says go ahead and swipe

you can still do a charge back when you authorized a swipe if the seller does not deliver goods/services.
