Highlights from this day
- dose_down_dara — update from 5 months ago: the domain from that report is still live and still fake, ill dig out the number 06:00
- dose_down_dara — a second payment because the first "did not clear" is the pattern. there is no first payment to clear 06:04
- seoul_swirl — someone claiming to be support for SSA contacted me first, real or not 07:41
- seoul_swirl — the lookalike domains almost always differ by one doubled letter, a swapped letter, or an added hyphen, still working it out 07:43
a second payment because the first "did not clear" is the pattern. there is no first payment to clear
thats forged
read it character by character
added to the watchlist
the watchlist is pinned and maintained. add anything you find with a screenshot
is an underfilled vial fraud or a bad batch
a bad batch is not a scam. an underfill is not a scam. slow support is not a scam
pressure tactic

thats a bad batch not fraud
report it even if nothing happens. the pattern is the value, not the individual case
the careful version of this channel is worth ten times the angry version
*PeptideMeter not the other one
i have never seen a real supplier ask for payment to a personal account
somebody is relabelling and marking up, is that a scam or just retail
thats the pattern
report it
we do not name private individuals in this channel. that is why some lines here are redacted
a chromatogram that appears on two different lots is forged. not sloppy, forged
if you cannot tell an impersonator from bad support, treat it as an impersonator until you can
someone claiming to be support for SSA contacted me first, real or not
nobody legitimate contacts you unsolicited offering a discount. report it, do not reply
the lookalike domains almost always differ by one doubled letter, a swapped letter, or an added hyphen, still working it out
do not engage
relabelling and marking up is retail, not fraud. it is a risk profile question, not a crime
