Heard.  That people using Paypal were getting screwed too?  I heard that there is a lot of BS going around about this issue.

4 transactions with TW in last 10 days , no problems!

[islandbass]

Perhaps breach is a better word? As it is written, it suggests that TW is the scammer.  
 

I am perhaps one of the few on here whose been here a while and while tempted, have never ordered from TW! I have nothing against them at all. Not sure not if this is a badge of honor, a mark of anti bait monkey resistance or a scarlet mark of upcoming ostracism upon disovery, lol.

Never had a problem with TW.

How cheap is it? Does it have a view of the mountains?

I’ve never ordered either, I like strolling the aisles and shaking the rattle traps

My bank also catches everything instantly no matter what kind of card or check is being used. I’ve never once worried about a single thing with them, they’ve proven to be effective over and over

I don't care if they hack my credit card, debit card, or take my house.  I just want to get my tackle before my wife comes home from vacation.

He got me cracking up on another thread earlier. I wonder if he does live shows? 

[FishDieBroke]

After placing early Black Friday order last Sunday, 2 days later I had a bank fraud attempt. Call fraud center to shutdown debit card. 15 min later, I received another fraud center text alert that looked different. Before I had a chance to inquire, I received an incoming call alerting me of potential fraud to verify. Luckily, I was in a aggressive mood asking the operator a bunch of questions before she had a chance to start asking me questions. She messed up with her first question. I did not respond but asked her what address she had on file…. She stated my new address which I never updated with bank since moving 8 months ago. I told her she was attempting to commit fraud and she started jumbling words. After ending that transaction I immediately drove to the bank to update my address and get a new debit card issued. Banker looked at text. Confirmed it wasn’t their fraud center and confirmed a fraud center would never initiate a fraud alert outgoing call to the customer. Luckily, I did not lose anything. All IP address activity was located in Florida with a couple physical fraud attempts in Florida as well.

Ah! Yes. TW. Apologies for the lack of specificity. 4th order starting now. Sold 3 rods and a reel to justify the 4th order. For some reason, I still feel guilty and I’m sure there’s a fifth one coming before it’s all over. You all know how it is. Only BlackFriday and Memorial Day…..that’s it. I’m done!……. Of course that turns into twice a month, all year round.

That is exactly what the Bait Monkey said.  I don't want a divorce.  I just want my tackle.

Haha no worries . The bait monkey is always watching ?

No problems with TW here.

 

Last week Suntrust refused to pay $4958.00 charged to my Visa card. They didn't even ask me, they let me know later. I've been with them since '75. They overnighted a new card. Nice of them.

 

Oh, almost forgot. The attempted charge was to the...

 

Jamaica Customs Department.

 

Fwiw, the real one is the Jamaica Customs Agency
