It's called a Regulation E claim. Your bank will a lot of times refer you back to the merchant saying they can't do anything but be very specific "this is not a valid charge and I need to file a regulation E claim"
The bank will be in violation of federal law if they do not initiate an investigation into the claim.
I have chargeback insurance for my small business. I bet gofundme has that too…
Your insurance has small print too, so will theirs.
Mods should sticky this now
Is this why they caved and said they are automatically refunding all donators?
No, if they do not disperse the funds to the person crowd funding, they are required to return the donations to donors.
They did not give the $$$$ to the truckers based on political beliefs.
I seem to remember the GFE was set up to cover the fuel costs and the monies were going there directly? Or am I mistaken?
Where does it say that? Is that gofuckme's own rules; financial regulations, or what?
Gofundme is a service, you pay them something, if they fail to carry out the work than they've fraudulently taken your money.
I agree, I'm just curious if GFM is violating their own terms & conditions with their current actions.
Regardless, I bet you $500 that their terms of service / terms + conditions magically get updated within the next few weeks, if they haven't already.
If it violates the law / rules; just rewrite them to suit your needs. 😐🙄🤬🤦🏻♂️
They did? Good.....
Their actions still border on obscenely criminal and they should abslutely still be investigated at least and locked up at worst......
Too bad they've stated they will now just automatically issue a refund to everyone... never mind the fact the corrupt banking system would simply "negotiate" with GoFuckMe and probably not follow through with the normal charge-back policies.
I mean, try it... by all means. Stick it sideways in their ass without warning, if you can.
Yes, fiat currency is only halfway up the ladder of scams, so talking about chargebacks seems mild.
This
I believe now they decided to just refund to everyone, you don’t have to fill out a form. It will be a lot of work for GoFundMe, but even more so if everyone puts a stop on the charges!
Fight fire with fire! Take them down!
Another tactic to try en masse is to use privacy laws against them. Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to make them delete all your information or at least the right to request they reveal all your personal information they have stored about you. Thousands of these requests would be rather inconvenient but they are bound to comply with whatever laws are there.
Brilliant!
Where can I donate? I want this to be the most epic boomerang play so far!
I love it. Bankrupt the bastards!!!!
Follow me, I know deh whey.
Go after their surety bond.
This is the way
Shia, is that you? Haha. Try fucking with them and see what happens. The chans are not to be crossed. Ever.
GoFundMe is already refunding everyone. This is old now. Fast is the way of information
a) I believe I saw an official release from GoFuckMe that said donors CAN apply for and receive a refund.... so if that's correct, this isn't QUITE so bad......but....
b) This still borders on criminal misconduct; fraud, theft, embezzelment; however TF you want to phrase it.
It's their business so they can largely do what they want, but in a situation like this, they should simply instantly refund the money to all donors; not hold it hostage behind some "application process" no doubt many of which will become such a huge pain that people just give up....which means gofuckme ends up with STOLEN MONEY.
See, if we really knew how to win, POTUS Trump would have sicc'd his DOJ on silicon valley companies like this, because this SURE AS FUCK isn't the first time they've done this.
WHEN ARE WE GOING TO START PLAYING BY THE SAME RULES AS OUR ENEMY?????
EVEN POTUS TRUMP WAS NOT AGGRESSIVE ENOUGH; DID NOT GO FAR ENOUGH ON SHIT LIKE THIS.!!!!!!!!!!
🤬🤬🤬🤬
I did this already today and so should you! (Please :0)
Can we all agree that whoever setup this gofuckme in the first place is a colossal idiot?
Now that person is all "*shockedPikachu.png"
WTAF did they expect?
I'm sorry but this is JUST. DUMB.
GFM's fucking terms + conditions probably outright state that they're commies & if they don't approve of the intention / purpose of your donation, they will steal it.
WAKE UP, PEOPLE!!!!!!
Here is another way. Go to other websites that review other websites like this one, found on telegram, and rate them if you'd like. There are some good comments here. It's similar to yelp. https://www.trustpilot.com/review/gofundme.com
I wish I could upvote this more than once. Excellent dig, my friend.
