Highlights from this day
- motivation_gone — follow up a bank transfer leaves a paper trail and no recourse. people should know both halves of that 22:52
- oasis_ola — is there a way to verify an address belongs to who you think it does i wait for the confirmations the supplier states and then one more before i chase anything 23:14
- confirmations_six — sent to the wrong network, is there any way back 23:16
- oasis_ola — update on the earlier thing do you keep the transaction reference and for how long 23:35
- motivation_gone — the discount pattern is roughly ten percent almost everywhere and it is a real saving at volume 23:50
triple check it
post it in scam watch

if you are asked to pay a second time because the first "did not clear", stop and post it in the scam channel
follow up work out the network fee before you take the ten percent discount. sometimes it eats it, i have it written down somewhere
no escrow here
check the first four and the last four characters of the address. every single time, no exceptions
thats a scam pattern
check first and last four
refunds do happen and they are slow and awkward. do not count on one
do you check the whole address or just the ends
is there any chargeback route at all
check the total
do suppliers ever refund and how does that even work
is there a way to verify an address belongs to who you think it does
i wait for the confirmations the supplier states and then one more before i chase anything

genuine question i keep every transaction reference in a note with the order. it has been useful twice
sent to the wrong network, is there any way back

update from 5 months ago: fees are lower than they were and the discount maths has changed, i think
no chargebacks
thats gone sorry
invoice mismatches happen. check the total against what you actually sent, not against what you meant to send
network fees were higher than the discount, has anyone done that maths
nobody can verify an address belongs to who you think it does. that is the actual problem with all of this

update on the earlier thing do you keep the transaction reference and for how long

the mods stop escrow conversations immediately and they are right to
slightly off topic but the room holds no money, brokers nothing, and runs no escrow. that has never moved
what happens if the price moves between invoice and payment
do not send a test payment to prove anything to anyone. that is a pattern, not a precaution, not advice obviously
the discount pattern is roughly ten percent almost everywhere and it is a real saving at volume
