That's what I thought.. I thought it was the percentage of transactions, not the dollar amount, am I wrong ?

see, thats why I dont use a third party processor or let them run my affiliate program.
when I have a scammer I just cancel the check I wrote.
total control over your business is a must, anything less and your business is at the mercy of other people.

Precisely, the main reason to use a check is you can't use a CC, maxed out?, do you want to take a check from this guy?

Paul Markham 02-05-2005 12:49 AM

Looking at this thread I think the best people to contact would be the police. He has an operation running scamming people.

today we cancelled that check it was just sent out a day or so ago

thank you for pointing it out!

the ccbill charged back
and 60% of the checks have bounced and been paid on

it appears that NATS doesnt mark them when they get returned and we still pay on them I am not sure about this but I would like to investigate it more
it may not be nats but a WTS issue of not reporting them

I am going to see if nats can not pay on checks untill they clear
this would clear up a lot of issues

at this point I Think I am going to turn off the check option on our joins untill we can get somthing in place to prevent it

its assholes like this that fuck it up for everyone else

Tanker

NATS will mark them returned as soon as WTS tells us about it. You can however also set NATS up so that it does not count the sale until the check actually clears.

Contact me or post a ticket about this.

SmokeyTheBear 02-05-2005 01:39 AM

i bet this guy is dumpster diving a post office for check stubs

sean416 02-05-2005 01:55 AM

damn, this guy must be burning a lot of people. So Ivy, do you mean to say that this guy was paid for his sales and because they bounced the balance was taken out of your check? That sucks. :Oh crap

You're a bitch with brains, figure it out for yourself by researching it or calling someone that knows. Most people here don't have a clue. :2 cents:

How many big programs can you find with a $99 option?

Not too many right? right

what does that tell you?

I'm also telling you from experience, I've been there and done that.

Later,

I asked a simple question, don't think that response was called for but, Ummmm.... ok.....

I'll research it , I forgot this is GFY and noone wants to actually share a valid source of info LMAO , they'd rather call you an idiot and put you down for not knowing something.

Thanks for sharing your wisdom :bowdown

Yes, because he only sends 1 sale per day at the largest signup level so by the time he's caught you have already been paid and he has as well, so yea, $624.55 has now been deducted from my checks. :Oh crap

me too, no problems with it...if 2.5% is the limit, its easy...Even 1% for transaction amount would be not that hard...

I just checked.... and found this:
___________
What is the chargeback ratio?
The chargeback ratio is the ratio between the "number of transactions" and chargebacks. The maximum chargeback ratio is 2.5%. Any account that exceeds this maximum will be closed. All funds of such an account will be held for 180 days as an insurance deposit.
__________
Which appears to me as I thought... the ratio of the number of transactions, not the dollar amounts... gonna check some more but this is what I always thought.

hmmm, but 2.5% in what period of time? At the end of the year for yearly stats, or monthly?

Another excerpt from my google search:)


....your chargeback ratio which is governed on a monthly basis by Visa and MasterCard International. Your
chargeback ratio is calculated by the number of captured transactions in a given month divided by the number of chargebacks received in the same month".

:thumbsup

I am glad to know that by sharing this it did at least help someone out ( besides just allowing me to vent LOL ) !


Ivy


Ivy,

Thanks for the post! I think we caught his check in time! Tanker and I spend last night researching even more into this and are compiling a list of people we've already caught and so new ones that look sketchy. We'll post them for you, so this won't happen to us again with the guys on the list at least.

Thanks,

You're welcome :) And yea, I'd love to get a heads up on others when you have it...may save headaches :thumbsup

andrej_NDC 02-05-2005 05:46 PM

Mark (corvett) just told me this:
visa is 1% by transaction count and 2.5% by dollar amount
:)
so, BV was right about the numbers

woj 02-05-2005 05:46 PM

100 scammers...

Ivy,

Sorry if I came across as an ass but I'm not putting you down and never did. I actually did try and help you by letting you know that a $99 option is not such a smart idea but it seemed to me that you did not want to hear what I had to say or you did not trust my info. That's fine, so that's why I said to research it yourself as that is what I do in a situation like this.

You may never have a problem with going over the 2.5% but I hope you can see and understand my point where a $99 billing option will get you there much faster.

PEACE!
BV

damn, that's bad news Ivy...... hope this guy bites the dust soon. :mad:

MikeSmoke 03-30-2005 01:18 AM

Just to let people know...this douchebag is still out there.
Signed up to my program three days ago, sent two check signups yesterday and two more today - he made some mistakes that I don't want to post publicly for obvious reasons, but as of last night he was already on my radar screen and as of today he's gone.
Beware <sigh>.

i don't know why ccbill does not have good check processing security.

i had to pull their check processing a long time ago because of fraud.

the only one i've had success with is netbilling.

i don't know why netbilling can do something that ccbill cannot.

We use Netbilling for checks and credit cards with CCbill as backup. Both compnaies are great but we pay much less with Netbilling obviously.

hello! can somebody give me the right adress of francis beaulieu from canada?

trashymedia 05-19-2006 08:36 AM

Same deal
 
Hi Ivy,
we had the same thing happen about four months ago. A German affiliate had sent a bunch of joins via check through only ONE gallery (ours). No offense to CCbill, but their check system is not that impressive (used it quite a few years ago and ended up with a 40% return ratio). We switched to WTS in 2003, and have been pretty happy ever since. Good tech support, plus we were told (not by WTS) that they do not take a percentage from the webmaster unless they collect on the transaction. Meaning that if they don't get paid on a transaction, they do not pass the charge to the webmaster (meaning returns are not charged the standard collection fee)....
