Isn't it bad enough they charge us a percentage of our earnings... they want another 750 on top... Greedy fucking bastards!
Honestly.. who gives VISA or MasterCard... more money? Joe blow that may spend 300 a month... or an adult webmaster that may send them 10,000+ a month... they need to start taking care of the business owner and stop cowering to the individual that abuses their privilage.
I agree.. charge backs are a problem... most of which go uninvestigated... they just take their customers word.. They need to do more investigations to see if the chargeback is justified... or make better sure the sale is legit at the time it was made.
FUCK VISA and Master Card!!!

NBDesigns, you are one brilliant dude. You always seem to post the most level headed information and I must agree 100%
Having been in the AVS business for years now, it was an easy simple way to have transactions handled on the web. I only run 3 sites. Other guys run a billion feeders and still don't make as much as I do.
Webmasters have to understand we're fighting two battles: Webmasters who are real pieces of shit and the CC companies.
Yes, porn on the web is makin Visa and MC rich. Yet it's not just us causing the fraud problems. Millions upon millions of users of cards and now they have computers. I don't think the cc companies realized the magnitude.
It's not just chargebacks, it's complaints from surfers who get hit with popups, CJs, manipulative browser tactics etc.
There isn't enough manpower to investigate, prosecute etc.
The system is overwhelmed with criminal activity and soon if something isn't done logically, we'll be back to vigilante justice
That's why you've gotta check your business pals nowadays because one guy you're hooked up to might seem cool but if he's out there doin' dirty deeds and gets pinched, your ass is called to bear as well.
