Response to naysayers:
Some of you are unbelievable. All the post does is encourage you to be careful with your personal information, to think hard about the type of schemes you are getting yourself into and to excersize caution and discretion with credit/financial decisions. So the only people whose parnassah is getting screwed by this are those that are relying on duping others to some extent.

Then there's a paper trail for the fraud, and there goes the deniability.



Funny how those against the DDMS post think anything they will say here will change anyone's opinion.

I'm sure there is other evidence, so this doesn't hurt.

can you name 1 person who gave his ssn to a farm and had issues in the long run, i know a lot of people didn't get what they were promised, why dose that make it unsafe, no one in these farms took a mortgage on someones ss, so where is it UNSAFE?

There hasn't really been a long run yet. And doesn't mean you won't do something in the future once you stop making a killing fleecing others and the cash flow runs out. I know someone who called one of the farms about a year after signing up with them telling them he misplaced his SS number and they gave it to him. I have no doubt they aren't stored properly. (Not that there's a reason to keep them at all)

That's actually even scarier than what I thought until now. Let's assume you know the guy from Shul and trust him, and he's actually a real stand up guy, but if they give the SSN when you call then even a low level scammer can get that with some easy social engineering

Anyone else suspect that at some point AMEX will claw back points already used and send a bill to the AH?

Yes.

A friend of mine was told that by a MR rep, at the time I told him DROPR, that was about a month ago. But who knows.

How is that unsafe? It's not like he picked up a disease form the farm or got knocked over by a truck.

They say when a man is left with no assets he is considered dead. This is a step in that direction ;D

He clearly was not referring to physical safety, as he mentions taking out a mortgage in someone's name.

Meh. Never heard of getting Credit cards being prescribed as a remedy in order to acquire assets. On the contrary, many people are prescribed getting rid of all their credit cards, in order to build wealth.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

That's why you're on DDF. But the person who handed his personal information to a CSF, is probably better off without credit cards.

Are you saying there are farms that only do real spending?
Yes. Fwiu , farms have learned their lessons from clawbacks (it is their Parnassa) and have resorted to to real spend .

99% of these guys are not. Even if they claim they are.

And you know that for a fact because...?
I guess the Good Guys always get screwed.
+1
Ok as usual I am confused. Can someone give the phone # of one of these farms that advertise and does legitimate spend?
That would be pretty hard to come by..
Scr*wed by the post?
Try scr*wed by the dishonest farms  ::)
It sounds like here in the discussion throughout the thread  that this is a very sensitive subject. Even if what you're saying is true, since you were the one posting about its awareness, fingers will always be pointed at your post.
