I do not buy the paypal argument. Dish could not look into any account with-out some proof or subpoena. If paypal would do it freely they would be liable to a huge class action.

Indirectly it is a pp topic with the recent legal postings.
If thats off topic.......I find it comical, I've seen and still do see hijacks not even close, mostly gone by comic material go on and on.
No....I would say its pretty damn close to on topic.

i thought this would be an alternative/safer method of payment thread.

When DN pops a reseller they then supoena the paypall records.. Its in the court documents .. So its an very easy argument to buy since DN's Lawyers say thats where they got incriminating evidence..
Time to catch up on some reading of court documents.. The ones on Nexiks are quite revealing..

the PP thing has been posted and beat to death.
some sellers and desperate buyers say its safe because they want the fast cash/tv veiwing.
people who have been sent letters/busted would say stay away from PP because its just icing on the cake.
just thought this thread may offer a few better/safer payment options from buyers/sellers instead of debating whether PP is safe or not.
the OP did mention PP being not so good to use and offered other methods.

that's just the way i seen this thread...not a debate about PP but about alternatives to PP.

Realistically, this thread can be for any payment method. If some feel like PayPal is still the way to go, then they can make their arguments. I believe there is quite a lot of evidence to the contrary. Once a court action has been filed, PayPal gets served with a subpoena and they basically hand over all pertinent financial, identity, banking, and address information over to DISH. There are other payment processors that would 1) ignore the subpoena because they are not bound by US laws 2) respond that they have nothing to turn over because they are an anonymous payment processor 3) be unable to be served because they are not a central body, but instead provided open source software to allow for peer-to-peer payments (as in the case of bitcoin).
Anyway, this thread is open for discussion, so... discuss away. What do you use? Why do you use it? Have you heard of others that you are curious about?
I for one want to hear from people that use Bitcoin.

Also, as an FYI
Green Dot MoneyPak
is not the same as
Green Dot Visa (Pre-Paid)
https://www.greendot.com/greendot
However, you can take money from a MoneyPak code and transfer that into your Green Dot Visa (with a $4.95 fee). All other reload methods link back to a bank account.

The issue is discussing pros and cons of the payment options, not pulling rank or comparing colors.. Just for your information, rank and color are a handicap a lot of times.. It involves obligations, controling ones temper and putting out little misunderstandings before they become problematic.. I fondly remember my days as a VIP...
Now back to the topic at hand, pros and cons .. We have seen proof of the risks of PP for IKS payments.. Lets explore the other options. It could come in handy for those that use PS and want something more secure..

PayPal will give law enforcement your name, address and contact info just for asking. A subpoena is only required to access your bank account and credit card information.
I don't know why people keep harping on this. PayPal makes it quite clear in their user agreement--if the cops come calling YOYO (You're On Your Own.) :)
Also, my understanding is that Green Dot now requires you to register with a valid Social Security Number. And Green Dot does not work outside the United States.... :(

All these are great suggestions...heres the problem a LOT of places are no longer supporting pre-paid cards/gift cards etc. as they know they can be set up with fake names etc....and to setup a account for buying is getting trickier and more info needed...for selling i have heard from people getting a account is near impossible without a MERCHANT account and they want everything for setting up that(i believe)...so soon it will be cash in the mail...lol...these places aren't stupid and know whats going on...its not a PP issue or anything its everywhere ....just what i have heard.....

I know of at least one. Once other IKS Providers AND resellers learn of alternatives they might be inclined to give it a try. As the buyer you can offer to pay in a different way if they suggest a method you are uncomfortable with.

Some resellers are turning to 3rd party middlemen companies that act as an intermediary between PayPal or the credit card companies. 2CO is based in the United States and I believe that they will be extremely cooperative when the authorities come knocking. The money trail still leads to your front door.
Click2Sell.eu on the other hand is based in Lithuania and are less likely to respond to a US company's demand for information. Ultimately, when push comes to shove and a subpoena for information is obtained, that money trail still leads to you.
Money orders in the mail are slick. Instruct the seller to send the "information" to a disposable email address (e.g. @mailinator.com). You do have to trust that the seller won't just pocket your money or say it never arrived.

If you pay cash for a prepaid visa gift card, register the card under fictious name, use this card for funding on PP after you set
up a fictious e-mail and fictious PP account the only thing that can be tracked is IP address. No bank info or soc # needed!

what about the pre pay visa cards....are does accepted by iks providers....hard to trace sense theirs no info about u on the card.
How bout if I put XX$ on a Money Pak. Send the seller the Money Pak number and tell him it has XX$ on it. He then adds that throwaway Money Pak card to his PayPal and transfers XX$ to his already setup PayPal. When he see's XX$ is in his Pay Pal account, he can deliver the product that you have negotiated. Sound correct?
If your in Canada you should be fine with Paypal... I'm one of them that should of gotten a letter from D*ck net..

Greenport Money pak is great option for a user who is looking to find a secured and anonymous way of payment for their donation codes in the USA.
I am sad to informe you that Pay pal is cracking down on seller or anybody who take payments from Green Dot MoneyPaks. So this method of payment will soon not be an option for seller. Check this announcement form Pay Pal below.
PayPal we regularly screen activity in our system. A recent review of activity on your PayPal Account indicates that you may have been informally accepting Green Dot MoneyPaks as a form of payment. The Green Dot MoneyPak was designed for the purpose of depositing cash in to your PayPal account for retail purchases, not informal payment acceptance. We ask that you discontinue using the Green Dot MoneyPak in this way. Continued use of the MoneyPak in this manner will lead to limitations on or closure of your PayPal Account.

It is even worse than that. Don't you think Charlie monitors forums like this. Capturing the IP's from the sender is easy. Monitoring the IP's of servers associated with this experimental hobby is also easy and the server IP's as well as ports are readily available on many forums. Capturing the IP's of the requester to the server is easy. Who the the ISP is information open to the public. This tells them approximately where you are. Proof that you are in regular and mostly in constant contact as the requester to the server is enough for your ISP to release your information. There is no other reason to be in regular and mostly constant contact with the server port that does not serve web pages other than to receive encryption codes. Capturing the packets you receive also is proof of your activity. I do not see any guaranteed safe way to study this experimental hobby so how you pay is not the threat for single users that I would be so single minded about. Sending cash will not make you invisible. Prepaid cards, fake names, nothing you can do will change this short of paying for a service that masks you IP. In closing if you want to be safe you would need to obtain an untraceable E-mail address and a few services for this do exist and then send cash to the provider providing them with that E-mail address. You could only communicate with your E-mail via a service that masks your IP as well as use this service for your box. This would make you as invisible as possible but even all this would not totally protect you if Charlie was willing to put enough resources on you; rest assured for you that do this that the return compared to the cost to catch you makes it not worthwhile doing from Charlies perspective. You are safe.

Greendot Moneypak so far, is the safest and the easyist to use. Walk into the store and you could leave your wallet and ID in the car pay in $20 increment the amount you want to put on the card and it will cost you $4.95 for doing it. So say you want to put $40 on the card. If you walk into Walmart for example with your cash it will cost you $44.95 Quite a number of resellers are offering this now and have been if you ask. No need for the customer to hold a risky PayPal account.

I've been around since the BUD days and I've not see it this bad and your right. That's one reason I have NetFlix $8 a month and streamed is well worth it. I'm probably going to let my donation run out and when it does I'm done. Receivers now day are even cheap cr*ap and over all not worth it. Like you say up/down up/down freezing and people telling ya when you mention they are down it's almost always the same answer it in you equipment. Not us. Or the sites screaming they got screwed by the reseller so you as the customer get screwed and your donation is dropped. Yea, I just don't need that. It use to be great, a fun good hobby. But things have changed. JMO.

Its the name of the game for one, and for two 3 weeks interrupted service is worth it???? you watch 2 movies when up most subs have payed for themselves...or 1 UFC and mnths of service has payed for itself.....look up packages of providers compared to what your getting for the peanuts your paying and do the math. Sounds to me you need a real sub if you want freeze free tv......just my opinion

All the methods are getting risky these days, I am sticking to the Western Union as i can always use false address and fake names. A lot slower to receive codes but a lot safer.
I agree W.U. seems to be the safest, but you do take a chance of losing your cash.. But everybody wants PP now days.. I would've went with satlobo months ago if not for that.. I may try opening a fake PP account..
Nice read, will try to stay away from PP if possible!

I mentioned bitcoins in a much earlier post. Are sellers/resellers interested in taking these now? The major downside to using bitcoin is the wide fluctuations in market value (i.e. recent arrest of Ross Ulbricht). I think bitcoin has major potential, but wide "exchange rate" fluctuations will hinder its progress as a currency.

Yes, they're great for those that accept credit card payments. You can pay cash for a Vanilla VISA at any of these retailers:

and then go onto their website and give the card a billing address zip code. Now, you've got a VISA card that you can use at any website. :)

Not sure about all IKS servers, but the ones that use 95epay as their payment handler do not accept Visa gift cards unfortunately. From what I have read 95epay only accepts Visa cards that are issued by a bank to an individual on a billing cycle. I think it has something to do with them being located overseas. Visa gift cards say "Valid only in the United States" on the front of them. That's just my opinion on the reason though, I could be wrong.

So can we get a summary of all the IKS re-sellers who will accept bitcoins ?
I expect some/many of us would be willing to jump on board and purchase via this means,
but only if the re-sellers will accept payment this way.
So... which re-sellers accept bitcoins?
malbork
01-09-2014, 07:33 PM
Just my opinion, but I think people are crazy using bitcoins. The value is too volatile at this point in time. One day they can be worth $800, another day $2000, another day $400. You could end up paying a fortune for a simple P$ vs just using more traditional methods.
hondoharry
01-09-2014, 09:10 PM
So... which re-sellers accept bitcoins?
I know another one on here - Kalimantester. They offer 5 or 6 providers and bitcoins accepted on all of them, in fact encouraged.
Personally I just can't bring myself to have confidence in a currency with no legal justice system backing it. In a system where a small minority of unknown persons control the majority of the currency. You may not want to meet those persons. But to make a donation, that's fine.
ruthie
01-09-2014, 09:55 PM
I do accept and trade them....and you don't need to buy a full coin if there say $800...you can just buy .125 or .05 of a coin.....then do your trading so to speak.....takes a little longer for stuff to go through but worth it for being anonymous .... just my opinion.....
malbork
01-18-2014, 07:32 PM
Ruthie, outside of FTA discussion, but do you personally mine bitcoins still, or is it too inefficient now that so many people are doing it. A few of my buddies used to be heavy into that awhile back. Two recently switched to mining lite (or light) bitcoins. I think they are $20 for 1 coin currently. The few guys that still do it, just do so with normal PCs with fairly high end video cards. Don't know anyone that buys those fancy things that are specifically designed for mining bitcoins (fairly expensive $1500+ to get started up). I personally thought about it in the past, but just don't trust the system at this point in time. It is neat though. Right now without a super powerful video card (aka one that is over $500), it is not really worth it, since you are say using and being billed "X" kWh on your monthly hydro bill having your comp on 24/7 mining, to make "X" fractions of a single coin. Canadian hydro rates are quite high too, which hurts your "profit" margin.

No have never mined them .....just accept them for trading purposes....but always just keep a few in there....lol not in to it big like others...

Last I checked pp keeps all transactional records forever. Not sure how long after the account has been 100% closed but I would guess years. Just think about your personal income taxes.
As for Hotmail the last I read records were stored 60 days after being deleted from the Recycling Bin (or what ever they call it now). Messages still may be found within other prior backups that have been made.
Yahoo and Gargle are just as bad.

I just went to CVS and got one. Loaded just 20 to see how it works. Looks to me like the old MoneyPak way. I sign in to My Cash at PayPal and put my numbers in and it loaded the 20 to my account after I click on accept. So I would say give the numbers to a seller and they can load whatever amount they are charging. Maybe the draw back is you can not get cash in hand it just loads the account but not sure how PayPal works myself.

What do you mean ? I have never required any information to buy and use vanilla Mastercards. Is this an American thing ? I buy vanilla cards all the time as gifts for birthdays ect.. and for all my online shopping. There is a post on the process of purchasing and registering vanilla cards for use with paypal here http://www.satfix.net/showthread.php?185469-Shop-with-Pay-Pal-Completely-Anonymously
Are the Vanilla cards in other countries like the good ol USA different and require more information to register or use ? Anyone with info on this let me know.. thanks :thumbsup:

Yes, the USA requires a ssn number (and other traceable information) to use pre-paid credit cards, I believe it came about after 9/11 and has something to do with stopping people from being able to fund terrorist groups anonymously.

wow, I had no idea. Sounds like there may be a big demand for Canadian vanilla cards.. I smell a business opportunity! lol :grr:
Thanks for the update.. for the record all Canadian prepaid visa / mastercards you can purchase and use almost directly after purchase, its activated automatically at the point of sale. Most places online they can be used directly with out registering it, but if you want to attach it to an account like paypal then you have to register it to a zip or postal code. That is the only information you are able to input for the card.
Makes me wonder how long before the Canadian cards will require more identifiable information to use them if at all. Oh well just another reason Canada is better :tehe:

Try a onevanilla prepaid visa. They do not require an SSN to use.

The Obama Adm. stopped ALL prepaid cards that I know of that do not require SS , name, address, e-mail, phone number and etc. ... Money pak, Visa, MC, and all others in the USA .... (if you know of ANY and where to purchase, please share) ???

I have no way to test the American cards, I know NONE of the Canadian 'gift' cards require any information at all. The ones that DO require information are the prepaid Mastercards and Visa's which are re-loadable thus you must register the card with personal info.
It looks like NoName may be on to something as the OneVanilla cards claim they require no personal information to purchase and use because they are not re-loadable and can only be used electronically (can't take cash from machines) ect.. If anyone gets a chance to try one of these let us know..

my mailman used onevanilla cards, he didn't have to register it but he did register the zip code.....no ssn number or name or anything required. He then linked the onevanilla to his fake paypal and then paid that way.

did your mailman have to give a phone number or E-mail ... How was the contact made to activate the card ???

Yes, so that's the same as the Canadian vanilla cards from the sounds of it. You buy them anywhere and can use them anywhere cards are accepted in person, but to use it online it needs to be registered to an address (just zip or postal code) for the credit card verification systems to work properly on web stores.

There is no contact to activate it, when you buy the card its activated automatically at the point of sale. there is a post here http://www.satfix.net/showthread.php?185469-Shop-with-Pay-Pal-Completely-Anonymously that should give you a better idea what we are talking about here.

Interesting reading. If you go to their website it says no personal information needed for the OneVanilla Prepaid Card.

All the aspects of IKS have inherent risk big enough that I have never bothered with it. There are other ways to test. But, even I would not try to just use paypal with no cut-outs.

You can freely say so because you have not as of yet had any issues.Like the guy that smokes that hasen't got cancer yet...like the heroin addict that doesn't have hep C yet...like the tax evader that hasn't got the irs phone call yet...like the guy that likes to drink & drive hasn't been caught yet.

ya, i used pp in the past and never had an issue but now there are better, completely anonymous ways to pay, so why risk it?
btw i'm a junkie and only have hep A and B, still haven't submitted my taxes this year and i've been smoking for 40 years....plbtttt. lol

Unless you want get a letter from a lawyer demanding payment of 5000.oo..... Don't use PP Please trust me on this one. My neighbor got one sent to his business.......
I use prepaid Vanilla Visa exclusively. If a reseller wants my business, they had better accept it. Period.
Paypal leaves bread crumbs to your door step. You wouldn't write a check for a bag of weed now would you?
Ok, maybe in Cali or CO.....
Bitcoin is just a pain in the ass. I don't understand it at all. Nor do I really care to.
Prepaid cost you 5 bucks and depending on which one you get, you can reload it.
Pay in cash. Be another John Smith.

Be careful who you use, my brother has been with one service provider from the beginning of the 2 new servers, his service expired 2 months ago and as usual paid renewal with van visa and got confirmation his service was good through august, 2 days ago he had no tv so contacted the reseller but the reseller no longer responds, contacted the service provider and they say they never used the card but the card has been used so he is cut off from using their service, great way to treat a loyal customer that is a senior living on a fixed income

It's ok, go ahead and call me out. I've never ripped anyone off and been at this for over 10 years without 1 single complaint. I'm working on it to get you as much info as possible. I'll be getting back to you as soon as I can. I also requested some info from you, please send it if you have it.

well its posted now , whats going on a thread thats been dead for years ..... now all of sudden its alive ...... weird .......
what is the problem(s) @ kenorakid ?
to be perfectly honest with you maybe its NOT the best idea to flip out on here , personally i've done it too many times ... so to save yourself the embarrassment .. maybe keep all in PMs .. " whatever " it is ... should be kept private ..
if you need some sort of assistance , i believe the staff have colors and or say mod or whatever .... some not all .... anyways .. maybe ask one of them or something ...
its blue , red , green , for sure ... i might be missing a few custom colors or whatever .. me personally i don't work here ...... i am just a nob0dy ......

Thank you but like i said i was keeping everything private until the reseller brought it public, i am having issues with service that i do not think are fair to air until people involved have had a chance to try to resolve them and i was merely trying to warn others to be careful with choices they make, that is why the thread came alive as it is a "paying for iks thread", i appreciate your reply and i understand your interest but like i said i feel it is fair to try resolving in private at this time that is why i never mentioned any names, it use to be folk appreciated help or warnings but now if you try to help people you get insulted, i thought that is why we are here to help each other

I'm not concerned.....i don't rip people off and I put it out there, I wasn't mad, still not. What happened was unfortunate for both parties. You have all the info now. You did call me into question in a pm then posted here. I will come forward to protect myself as a seller always. Nothing to hide.

the warning is in post # 181 it's clear as day ......... i know because i wrote it ....
it said to : kenorakid ........ hey man not everyone around here with power says it on there title or user name nick name or handle or whatever ghey terminology it is this year ...
basically i saw YOU type and i was really talking to kenorakid about you to be perfectly honest , well because your the site @sshole with a little power ....
i saw the message for what exactly it was , you attacking Pennywise's customer ... you attack everyone .... we've talked about this before ... if you wanna continue to hang out here and be apart of this community , either you change your ways or i'll be forced to have you removed here as well .... just like i did over at talk ..... to be perfectly honest with you i don't really like you at all , never did ...... you come off like some know it all ...... like your somebody in reality you're a nothing ..... truly a skill-less troll that only runs around and annoys others or puts others down ...... you bash more than you help and this post is yet another perfect example .....
and you really should've checked ole Pennywise's buddy list , you would've seen that i was clearly on it ....... LoL what a idiot !
anyways you thought i didn't know him/her/it/tranny ...... that was your first mistake ....... second one was going after his/her/its customer and third was " thinking " you had the IQ to even exchange a conversation with me , let alone be apart of it ... LoL .....
how about that for a warning , do you like it ?
:lolpound:
Before you even consider replying , remember the internet belongs to me ...... and YOU are just a guest .....
And you really should follow your own advice that's in your signature : “Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut.”
You really are a highly disrespectful person , that i would just love to have 5 mins with ..... Show you something daddy didn't obviously do , give you a education on manners and a good ole @sswhipping ... maybe a slap to the face too ...
second thought i've never hit a lady before and you're pretty damn close to being one , so maybe a slap to the face will have to do ....
this video is for you .... it reminds me of YOU
