Breaking news: scammer scams people

[–] mvilain@fedia.io 7 points 3 days ago (6 children)

Were these people stupid enough to purchase the phone with cash or a check and not a credit card? I'm sure VISA, M/C, and AMEX will refund the charge and do a chargeback. If they were stupid enough to wait more then two months (most companies have a 60 limit on contested charges), then they deserve to be shafted.

600k seems like an awful lot. Where is that estimate coming from?

[–] noodles@slrpnk.net 8 points 3 days ago

Tens of millions voted for him the second time, and I wouldn't be surprised if a good chunk of the 600k came through a few big donors and this was yet another money laundering scheme like the coin, that happened to catch a bunch of morons in the mix.
