    Did anyone use EMO corp for payments? They're in receivership

    EMO had a unique payment system: printable money orders. You could email a client (or affiliate) a printable file which could then be deposited at a US bank.

    If you've never heard of EMO you may have heard of one of their large members: 12dailypro

    Looks like EMO went the same way as Stormpay: they did not have 100% of members funds available as cash. Gee... running an online payment service seems to be a great way to pep up your lifestyle since it's unlikely that all your members will ever withdraw their accounts to empty, at the same time. Just skim 10% and you're laughing.

                              Was it an autosurf thing or something else?

                                  They arent money orders, are they? They are simple pre-authorized bank drafts. Hardly unique, though the ability to e-mail them is a new twist. There are plenty of places that do the echeck thing and either print and mail them to you or supply you with paper and software to print them yourself.

                                  All water under the dam now though. And yes, running a payment processor is a great way to get rich quick.

                                      on a side note, what would an emo version of the gfy emu look like? sounds like a good topic for a photochop thread...

                                              I've never heard a better description of it than that ROFL

                                              I'm glad my generation went for the 'grunge' look instead of this pansy ass crap.

                                                          Found this by the same poster:

                                                          Hmm, wonder if the emo boy is one of the headbangers-with-gay-looking-shoes in that clip.
