Phennommennonn Forum Administrator 01/05/2012 04:10 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | this is just the beginning folks. they know everything you do. those reward/points cards were never intended to give you back anything but to data-mine & profile everything you purchase. the coming cashless society - they caan shut you off for whatever & whenever they want. welcome to the new world order. political correctness is a doctrine.... fostered by a delusional, illogical minority...... and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media; which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 3058115 United States01/05/2012 04:14 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Actually, something like this happened to me too. I bought gun parts and some long term (prepper type) food items, and MasterCard put a temporary hold on my account.. the week of Christmas! Said reason was "suspected fraud". This hold didn't come from my local bank, it came from the debit MasterCard. |

| The Decider (OP) User ID: 1544142 United States01/05/2012 04:21 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I used to be a cash buyer but the debit card is so convenient The best deals on guns I can find are on the web so cash isn't an option I haven't bought anything crazy, nothing fully automatic Class 3 or whatever just a lot of guns and a lot of ammo Doom on! |
| Epic Beard Guy User ID: 1079209 United States01/05/2012 04:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It sounds like that bank and that card are bad news. Find a new bank and card. Best bet is don't go anywhere that had any thing to do with the govenment money. I recommend a credit union rather than a bank. I have done the same thing and never had a problem. My credit union has called me about "suspicious activity", but it had nothing to do with guns. It was just really large purchases, or purchases out of my area of the country. They have never called about an online purchase. Ditch the bank and their card! Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. "America is at that awkward stage. It's too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards." -- Claire Wolfe |

That way you can have some control and personal relationships with the people there, and get away from the fascists in the big banks. Be sure you keep enough cash at home for when things get rough. |
