I got this email from 2checkout.com my former creditcard processor.

Dear Mr. Davis:

I am with the legal department. You opened an account with us, setting it up for web hosting. You clicked on a contract -- our terms of service. In Section IV, you agreed to not sell specific goods and services 2Checkout.com, Inc. prohibits with a link for the most up to date list. One such item is pornography. Our Director of Risk Management determined your site, allegedly a hosting site, is a porn site. The evidence was forwarded to me. This violates the Terms of Service. Most despicable was actively attempting to deceive us as to the site?s true nature. While we would normally instruct you to remove the offensive material immediately, in light of the blatant attempt to hide by masking the true contents of the site, we believe you knew this would meet with our disapproval. and took steps to conceal that from us. Therefore, we believe the best course is to terminate the account immediately for violating the terms of service. Moreover, you are hereby notified we have determined your conduct merits forfeitures of all monies earned and therefore demand all funds paid to you be returned to us immediately. I have advised 2Checkout that your course of conduct constitutes both civil and criminal misconduct and that should you fail to return the funds to us, they should without hesitation explore all potential legal remedies and immediately chose the best means proceeding with all dispatch. You may return the fees only by certified bank check or a money order made payable to 2Checkout.com, Inc in the amount of $1,886.79.

In conclusion, you tried to hide a porn site by disguising it as a web hosting site intentionally circumventing the contract. That conduct constitutes both civil and criminal violations of the law. Therefore, we are terminating your account immediately and demand the immediate refund of all monies paid you.

Sincerely,

Ronald H. Sebree, Esq.
Legal Department

Now this isn't completely true, when I opened the account it was for my hosting site which later on I closed, so since I already payed the fee to use 2checkout.com i decided to use them for my cam site, which isn't a porn site! Now they are telling me I have to pay them all the money they ever paid me $1,886.79. this is crazy I have had to pay most of that for the site, now they demand all money ever made back to them...what would YOU do?
