Cheers for that, I am glad you took my comments in the way they were meant and not as a personal attacks, which some people mistakenly believe.

You know, I get angry when ordinary working people get ripped off by scammers and I believe that victims of these sites should not sit quietly back and just accept it. They should demand their money back and push their credit card companies and banks not to do business with parasites (rip-off merchants). After all, if the banks did not provide the necessary banking facilities these scam site would not be able to rip people off.

That’s why, in part, I changed the tone of my advice from "soapy soft" to "harsh" to tell people that if you don’t look after your money no one else will. Because the banks and CCs are only interested in the fees each transaction generates they don’t give a “flying toss” that a scam site customer is actually a victim of fraud. Unfortunately, that did not go down too well and people got angry with me instead of the site that ripped them off.

Spar1691, I am sorry the scammers won’t give you your money back but that is as expected, but the bank, as a respected institution, has a moral obligation to refund your money (which they can readily do by debiting the scammer’s account). Because they, the banks, provided the crooks and parasites with the necessary facilities that allowed you, and countless others, to be ripped off, so they should do something about it.

Anyway, good luck and we’ll meet up for that drink when this is over.
