Stripe seem friendly to "friendly fraud" - Gingerlime

Friendly fraud is the laundered name for something that the payment system is not really able to prevent. Even though I’m pretty sure they can do way better. Particularly big and sophisticated payment providers like Stripe, with a mountain of signals. I had a customer buy my product twice. It’s called Ciglue. It’s cigar glue.…

Stripe's #fraud #detection prowess is like a leaky sieve, kindly welcoming "friendly fraudsters" with open arms. Apparently, their sophisticated system can't tell a genuine customer from a repeat offender, making it hilariously easy for anyone to double-dip on your products. 🤦‍♂️💸

Yay some JUSTICE 🍾🎉🎊

Andy Sanborn appeared in Merrimack County Superior Court on Thursday on charges accusing him of theft by unauthorized taking over pandemic relief funds.

The people who worked at The Draft went on unemployment where they collected an extra $600 a week even though this scumbag got a PPP loan he was supposed to pay them with.

Edited to add: he didn’t get in trouble for not paying the employees specifically, but that he paid rent to himself and he and his wife bought cars and crap with the $.

NH couldn’t care less if wage slaves suffer.
