Hey Canadians, what's up with the tax obsession. What about looking into your own backyard. Vancouver is a notorious washing machine for 'dirty' money from China. And we are not talking about $1000 here and there, but more like $10 million here and there.

The Government Accountability Office likes to point its finger at Luxembourg and the Cayman Islands for sheltering tax cheats. But according to the U.K.-based Tax Justice Network, the United States is the biggest tax shelter of 'em all, thanks to the great state of Delaware.
Delaware, says the Tax Justice Network, is "the most secretive financial jurisdiction in the world." That's based on an analysis of 60 financial jurisdictions according to level of secrecy and cooperation with foreign tax authorities.
Luxembourg comes in second, followed by the Switzerland, the Cayman Islands, and the United Kingdom.ICQ 557504926Comment

Vancouver harbors tax cheats from all over China, London from all over the world, and Delaware from all over the financial galaxy, so...
Please mind your own business, thank you.Last edited by xmas13; 09-03-2010, 09:45 PM.ICQ 557504926Comment

Does anyone else find it odd that if the bank partner's visa has been suspended why is that not in Google News? Are the banks only client's porn pushers? This is a pretty big bank (St. Kitts-Nevis-Anguilla National Bank Ltd)....from what I read they look healthy and are actually trying to assume a failed bank along with another bank. Also very odd timing considering this from the LA Times on August 9th...
"While receipts for the well-reviewed "Flipped" were soft, they were far better than the dismal starts for two other movies. "Middle Men," about the beginnings of the online porn industry, grossed just $305,000 at 252 theaters, giving it an average take of only $1,210. Christopher Mallick, one of the movie's subjects, bankrolled its $20-million budget and paid for advertising. It was distributed, for a fee, by Paramount Pictures."Want a Sponsor that really PAYS?!?!?!?!

Maybe someone from Visa watched the movie...
Looks like there is another one coming out as well... Mallick Media/Oxymoron Entertainment. Columbus Circle...first listed producer is Christopher Mallick. From the way I read it rowan he paid the $20m to do the film + paid for advertising + paid Paramount to distribute.Want a Sponsor that really PAYS?!?!?!?!

New letter just arrived at epass.
They also removed the Virtual Visa option completely in Wallet Settings.
In the letter they mention they are ready for biz and fund transfers to continue as normal with only the Wallet being used.
So those are good signs.Last edited by Vjo; 09-03-2010, 11:59 PM.Comment

Nope I just analysed them in a text pad and they are the exact same except they are strangely cut up a bit diff. Like longer spaces between paragraphs. But the text is the same.Comment

heh, have you ever lived in downtown Vancouver. It's quite funny. Classified as the world's most livable city, the downtown is extremely wealthy, clean, etc... yet, almost everything in downtown Van is cash based.
I lived there for over a year, and basically never used my ATM machine, or any plastic. Time to get paid? Visit a client at a cafe, and pickup a ziploc bag full of cash. Time to pay rent? Put 20 $100 bills into an envelope, and wait for the landlord to arrive. Nothing plastic in downtown Van.
Might be one of the wealthier cities out there, but it's a huge black market economy.Last edited by Kiopa_Matt; 09-04-2010, 12:17 AM.xMarkPro -- Ultimate Blog Network Management

Yeah this could turn out in a classic bank runI'm also worried that Epass might be using a fractional reserve system, in other words, they do not actually have physical "possession" of the sum of their customer's balances... part of that gets tied up in outside investments. The system works (usually) because with enough customers there's an average minimum balance - anything above that (plus a safety margin) can be used for other investment purposes without affecting the company's ability to handle the usual daily deposit and withdrawal operations. Trouble is if those investments lose money then it could be the start of a downward spiral, where the sum of their available cash and unrealised investments is less than the sum of the customer's balances. In other words, they can't pay out everyone. A run on the bank (where a large number of customers withdraw all their money) could leave the remaining customers with cents in the dollar, or nothing.

It's pretty common a bank only has about 20% of the funds actually there...

It is awful weird but what isnt now days.
Like someone was reading the orig, leaned on the keyboard by mistake, threw a ? in where an apostrophe was before, (notice that) hit enter a few times here and there and hit SEND. Maybe by mistake.
Or... there could be something way more sinister at work here.
2 options.

on your
</SARCASM>
Just playing along.
More importantly, changing sponsors away from epass tonight is kind of a bummer. I guess if the sponsor contacts me or places a notice within stats I change.
If I dont hear anything then it is still up in the air. That is the procedure I am following. I imagine more will email as time goes on. Playing it by ear.
Edit: everyone seems to have ACH now which is way better for us in the US anyhow.Last edited by Vjo; 09-04-2010, 01:25 AM.Comment

Fractional reserve banking is done by banks and as epass is not a bank it doesn't lend money. This isn't to say the bank epass use don't lend money but it seems from earlier posts that St.Kitts were going strong and even looking to absorb other failing banks.I'm also worried that Epass might be using a fractional reserve system, in other words, they do not actually have physical "possession" of the sum of their customer's balances... part of that gets tied up in outside investments.

I'm more woried about the chance that I can't use epassporte anymore in the future then the stupid $6000 blocked on epass right now.
Jesus fucking christ, at least give them a "FAIR" chance to fix this.
Do you realy think "stirring shit" will speed up the whole process?
Some complot theories here are complicated
then the "Da Vinci Code".
Stupid cunts ....

michael, i just saw that a few days before this mess i received a message that i have to verify my account with a government issued ID.
Assuming this drama will be solved in a positive way so that all is good in the near future, i will be uploading the requested docs. Is a dutch drivers license a valid government ID for epassporte?Comment
