Also, your account name would most like not be something subscribers would know. "Joe's Computers" or something like that.... so when guys get their statement and see that there they think to themselves "I didn't buy any computer shit" and call the bank to reverse the charge... you lose the money, and after too many reversals / chargebacks, you lose the account.
