invoice mismatches happen. check the total against what you actually sent, not against what you meant to send
what happens if the price moves between invoice and payment
post it in scam watch
update from 8 months ago: fees are lower than they were and the discount maths has changed
do the fee maths
the discount pattern is roughly ten percent almost everywhere and it is a real saving at volume
there are no chargebacks here. that is the trade you are making and it should be a conscious one
is the ten percent crypto discount standard everywhere now
there are no chargebacks here. that is the trade you are making and it should be a conscious one
do not send a test payment to prove anything to anyone. that is a pattern, not a precaution, i think
i wait for the confirmations the supplier states and then one more before i chase anything
thats gone sorry
the room holds no money, brokers nothing, and runs no escrow. that has never moved
nobody can verify an address belongs to who you think it does. that is the actual problem with all of this
is a bank transfer ever an option and is it a bad idea
how many confirmations before a supplier usually marks it paid
i triple check the address and i have still had a moment of pure panic every single time
paying in two parts is sometimes offered and it does not reduce your risk, it splits it
is there a way to verify an address belongs to who you think it does
keep the reference
is there any chargeback route at all
whats a reasonable network fee to accept
a stablecoin while the order is pending removes one variable you do not need
do you check the whole address or just the ends
follow up coming back after 1 months, has anything changed on fees
i wait for the confirmations the supplier states and then one more before i chase anything
if you are asked to pay a second time because the first "did not clear", stop and post it in the scam channel
