Measure your IPD free online using a credit card

Post by rmcclelland »

I saw an android app for this. It was $2. There are few places you can measure your IPD free online using your webcam and a credit card for a standard size reference (magnetic stripe facing camera).

This one worked great for me:

Wow! They want you to show them the BACK of your credit card, with the CCV code? And they can see the credit card number embossed (in reverse) too.

I sure hope you used an EXPIRED credit card for that scam! If not, you really should call your credit card company and cancel your card before strange and interesting charges start showing up on your credit card statements...

It seems AWEFULLY suspicious that they even suggest that you specifically show them the BACK of your card, when a size reference should not matter what is printed on it or which side you show them...

MANY websites - various phone numbers as well. Operates a TON of websites that I have read are scams.

MY details refer to the GrantsOneDay program and the related so-called "trials" for the fraud protection and the Identity Security programs. (Which I did NOT sign up for!!)

I am into these people for over $200 and they have not yet closed my account - which I have requested twice.
They refuse to refund any of the monies they took from me without authorization.

If you have had bad transactions with this guy, you should do the following:

1 - File a complaint with the Broward County, FL Sheriff (who was not at all surprised to get mine... hmmm...)
2 - File complaint with the FBI Internet Complaint Center at http://www.ic3.gov and
3 - File complaint with the Florida Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services at http://www.800helpfla.com
4 - dispute all bank charges via your bank, fill out all forms completely, and keep copies for your attorney in case you need one. Send copies to the Broward County Sheriff as well, after they instruct you to do so.

DO THIS PEOPLE!! It is going to take a strong voice from all of us to get this jerk off the streets and out of our pockets!!

There is an English idiom that covers this one quite nicely:

Not sure if this is a scam or what, but I removed the link just to be safe.
