Alright. Since it seems this industry is falling into corruption. We need to take a stand. We need to start protecting our customers and our business.
What we need is a website that:
- Lists types of scams
- lists types of credit card fraud
- has an "unsafe" list of sponsors and pay sites connected to fraud
- has a "safe" list of sponsors and pay sites running their program legally/morally
- has a complete reference of billing and payment processors connected to fraud
- has a list of steps to help customers reverse the fraudulent charges
- has a list of legal and business contacts for customers to file credit card fraud reports
This has to be done with good intent. No ref links, no bullshit. Just a simple site to inform people how to avoid scams and fraud. What sites to look out for, and what charges to be suspect of. How to help people get out if fraud has taken place. How to help people notify the right legal departments if fraud has taken place.
This could probably be done quick and easy using something as simple as a wordpress blog. This should be done by a trusted person in this industry. And someone who isn't going to be bought out or bullied into censoring important information.
* I'll offer a free design to anyone who creates this website.
Post up ideas, thoughts, or whatever. Should we get this started? Am I missing anything? Who would be a good candidate?
