A very important bit of information you should read |
|
 shedrock writes "This is a warning to all of you who sell items on your website and use the
unreliable Pay Pal service.
Two days ago someone using a stolen Credit Card made multiple theme purchases
on Lorkan Theme over $2,500.00 CDN. While this person was making the purchases
and downloading them after paying for them, we suspended all downloads after 12
themes. I notified the person via email that until I can confirm with Pay pal
that the Credit Card is legitimate I will reactivate the downloads. Pay pal was
contacted and assured us that the Credit Card was legitimate and that the person
has been a regular member and have made past purchases. They told us to go right
ahead and deposit the monies into our bank account. Upon confirming this with
Pay Pal, we decided to reactivate the downloads. Unfortunately for us, this
person managed to download over 75 themes from us, so it just makes one wonder.
What is Pay Pal's responsibility?. Now, a similar incident took place a few
months ago, but was nothing compared to this. When it occurred, I personally
dealt with pay pal over the phone and not much was done. I then took the matter
to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) and they reversed Pay Pal's actions taken on
our account. Anyway, I am letting everyone know that they should be very careful
on how they accept payments via Pay Pal. They run a very shady business in my
opinion, and until it happens to you, you may just take this message for
granted. I seriously urge you all that before delivering the goods to the
customer, to at least let the credit card payment clear via your account or as
in Pay Pal's case, let them wait (3) days before receiving any items. This is no
guarantee that Pay Pal would not still come after you for money even though they
cleared it. In the second incident, this is what they did to us.
Note: This is the email address used for making the purchases via Lorkan
Themes and Pay Pal:
cmarsd3n@cox.net
This is also the other one used and is a hacker website as well:

(User Info | Send a Message) | IPN Instant Payment Notification and only on a VERIFIED status process the payment
In this case it had to be set to PENDING
U can save yourself trouble using the digital goods module from http://www.nukeroyal.com it has an IPN Download Protector.
And this incidents cannot happen like this.

(User Info | Send a Message) http://lorkan.com | | This is absolutely incorrect. I use a program called pixie which uses the IPN feature. The problem as I stated was this. If you havea credit card and make a purchase, once this purchase is made the user receives an email and can download the file via a link. Now, the credit card used is obviously been approved by paypal and no one can know it is stolen until after the fact. It does not matter what you do, you have no way of knowing the card is stolen. In my case they also did a background check on the credit card and they said it was clean and that the person is a regular on Pay Pal. So it doesn't matter how much you think the IPN feature will help, it simply does not apply in this case. If you're interesed to see the program we use, here is the link:
