Default Re: Neteller Accnt Hacked (continued) and Neteller Won\'t Refund

The point is it is HIS account and any transfer that happens (outside of fraud) is because HE did it. Why would or could they not tell you where you sent money from your account?

Why don't we all just call Neteller and ask about our last withdrawal transaction? See what details they'll give and how many of us are given a hard time.

hey neteller123, let me break it down for you... if your story is true.

1) neteller wasn't hacked. You're the only one whose account was hacked.
2)Your account was "hacked" through your own incompetence. Try to keep your personal info safer next time.
3)I have no sympathy for you. See item 2.

[/ QUOTE ]

Sheesh, what makes you think I give a rat's a*s*s about your sympathy? My point is, your Neteller account could get hacked and Neteller WILL NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR LOSS because they are not regulated as a U.S. bank. Get it?

Again, I don't need your sympathy and I don't have a doubt you are an uber nerd who knows how to secure your home network.

Your attitude stinks. It stinks more than your story. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] Do you work for firepay?

What were his reasons for making up this story? To discredit Neteller? They made good in the end (though their policies are questionable), so I doubt that is it. I cannot think of a reason for anyone to come up with this elaborate story just to bring attention to himself.

After this whole thread, I actually belive him at this point. However, having said that, it is still true that:

1. His original story posted under a pseudonym sounded fishy.

2. Whether he made up the story or not has no bearing on whether one's money is safe in Neteller.

If I give my friend my ATM card and the PIN, and ask him to get $50 for me, I can't get upset at the bank if my friend gets out $200 and doesn't tell me. You take a risk every time you give your NeTeller info to a website/casino/poker room.

[/ QUOTE ]

If someone makes an unauthorized withdrawal from your bank account (in America, at least), you're not responsible.

The bank will replace the funds, and the person who stole the money will be prosecuted.

If someone makes an unauthorized charge using your credit card, same rule applies.

If someone takes your Neteller money, those rules DO NOT apply.

If someone steals your credit card or your atm card, you WILL (assuming you report it in a reasonable amount of time) get your money back. If your Neteller money is stolen, you probably won't.

Comparing Neteller to a credit card or bank is misleading.

The point of the thread is not that it's Neteller's fault the OP lost his money, it's that your money is not as safe at Neteller as it would be in a bank.

Please don't confuse the issue.

Don't be so edgy. Or grumpy. Or whatever the [censored] you are.

Sorry, but this isn't the case. One thing that separates a debit or check card from a credit card is you're only liable for, I think, $50 by law for your credit card if someone else goes on a shopping spree with it. There is no such law for a debit card which is attached directly to your bank account. Most people don't know this big difference between credit cards and debit cards.

Default Netetler will act the same as a bank in the US

When you use Quicken for online transactions in the US , you have no legal protection as if it was Neteller. For example, unless the servers or system of Bank 123 are proven to have been hacked, the bank assumes no responsability if your PC, Quicken or someone cracked the encryption that Quicken uses to send the data. The bank will only be responsable if the hacking occurs on their system. I will assume that if someone cracked Netellelr servers, they "may" be more willing to return your money.

Your liability is limited to $50 if you notify the bank within two days, and $500 after that.
