my dad just got fucking pajeeted... He got scammed for over 500 dollars by some shit company in india who claimed to be in new jersey saying his computer was frozen and that they needed to 'fix it'
He paid because he's old and doesn't know much about computers, he only uses it so he can play memory strengthening games as he's getting old. pretty fucked up.
Here is their number, fuck these asshole scammers 8883958485
I guess I'm posting this on biz because this is the board I go to all the time... this is bullshit, I mean the money isn't life destroying for my parents, but it's definitely a huge chunk of change... How should I proceed biz? I already called them and they obviously won't refund him. Also he paid with a debit card so I don't know how feasible it is to chargeback.

>How should I proceed biz?
Kill yourself for having obviously shitty genes?
Julian Brooks

Cooper Rodriguez
wew
Leo Reyes
fuck you
James Stewart
Issue a chargeback from your bank, fool
Hudson Green
damn the worst part is that I think my dad is more like upset/sad that he got pajeeted and stuff... honestly fuck these guys for taking advantage of older americans :(
Matthew Barnes
Can you chargeback a debit card purchase?
Isaiah Cooper
ring the bank straight away

Indian tech support managed to click around on my Dad's PC and both of my grandmothers have gotten calls from people claiming to be me with some story about going to Mexico with friends, losing my passport and needing money wired to get out of jail. My grandmothers didn't fall for it and my Dad didn't pay the Pajeet, thankfully, but it just strengthened my hatred of spics and shitskins.
Have your Dad do a charge back and encourage him to browse /pol/.
Samuel Gray
the problem is, is that I'm visiting home from my post graduate program and I caught him on the phone with them (they were trying to get him pay even more). The charge occurred June 15th, it shouldn't be too late, right user?
James Brown
this mean satire
David Myers
It depends on how your Dad payed but it's certainly worth phoning the bank, the least they can do is look for other people who paid those fuckers and block those payments.
Jacob Ross
I'm kind of tempted to flood their phone lines using python/trulio as well... Should I do this? Or is this not advisable?
Blake Rivera
get him a better computer from your crypto gains, you can afford it
tell him to call you first when he has a problem drink 2 beers and forget about it
William Roberts
I could give him 500+ dollars from crypto gains no problem. I go to school and do software dev, so I'm pretty confident I deleted all the shit they put on his computer though.
Ya, I hope he can get over it, 500 dollars isn't too big of deal it just sucks that he feels like shit for getting scammeroonied
Lincoln Garcia
Yes, say you never received the item you were promised.
Jace Hall
I wouldn't get into a spam war with India.
Your Dad won't feel so bad if you can trick him into thinking you got his $500 back. You seem like a good son, btw.
Jason Martin
hm I think I'll call his debit card company tomorrow, if it doesn't work I guess it's not that bad of an idea just to deposit the money into his account lol
Joshua Foster
Could have been a lot more, plus it redpills your dad on pajeets and general internet shenanigans. Shake it off and encourage him to keep using the computer. Just tell him to involve you when there's money in the equation
Wyatt Robinson
I work a card processor and yes you can IF the card is done online then by default it goes through the credit side you can chargeback easily but if it's in person and you key in a PIN number it's a little harder but you can still initiate a chargeback or the easiest way to do it is just dispute that they were supposed to charge xx.xx
Blake Cook
I just read that it was done via debit so that shit is going to be easy as fuck lol just call the bank dispute it's fake and your didn't know any better and they'll refund you in like 10 days and send him a new card
Robert Ramirez
So you can just cancel random online purchases with ease?
Eli Martinez
Yes. Although certain places may blacklist you/your card if you intentionally chargeback to get a free purchase.
Nolan Diaz
easy as fuck just wait for the shipment and to be delivered and then call like a day or two after delivery and ask where it is and then just do a dispute with your bank.
Adam Flores
they usually never notice lol
this one guy had a dispute once a month every month for a year for the same guy that would get a massage each and every time
there's some softwares and gateways that allow you to "blacklist" or have an option for it but 99% of them don't so unless the merchant is a merchant that's watching every transaction before approving then there's a possibility they'll just void your transaction
Parker Lee
did the same shit when I was in my buddies garage with his lambo
tfw I have an m3 and friends have exotics that I can use to shill
