WARNING - FRAUD, by Prescription Art on Sept 1, 2014 18:00:20 GMT 1, I've had another fraudster trying to purchase from me. He's using the name KUNLE KAZEEM.
I imagine he now might be using a different name, but if you're an individual or gallery, please be wary that there are people trying to purchase high value goods using stolen credit cards.

Is there any way of reporting these guys?
We believe to have had similar situation, but how are you certain they are fraudsters?
In our case, the 2 card details attempted by the individual kept declining and the person insisted on paying over phone instead of paying via PayPal?

Funny thing is james he contacted me after i contacted you to say he could do a transfer when i said i dont take cards so i assumed id jumped the gun about him, 2 weeks later still no transfer so was obviously saying what he had to to keep me quite as he'd other "business" going on. Hope everythings ok with you.

I tried calling you earlier... I was phoned by the bank earlier to say he'd used a stolen card from the US.
Fortunately i'd held off delivering thanks to your message. THANKS!

Be careful GS they were insisting on paying by cc over the phone with me but i dont take payment that way as the bank said i wouldnt be covered if it turned out to be stolen/fraud, have you sent anything yet?

I wasn't certain, and the bank wouldn't help. All they told me is that if someone pays over the phone the bank absolves all responsibility & that if there's a problem you're held entirely liable. There's no way to tell until you get a letter through the door saying that you're having the money taken from you.
I was told about this website earlier today though, so you can at least check that the card isn't from an overseas bank: www.exactbins.com/

Haven't sent anything, and I was wary from in the beginning even before the card declined.
I have PayPal terminals which I use to take payment through, so ultimately whether we take payment through phone or online it all goes through the same system.
That's probably why the individual didn't get lucky as it's not the usual PDQ terminal he/she was expecting.

WARNING - FRAUD, by Deleted on Sept 1, 2014 18:56:36 GMT 1, Just thought i'd add a bit to this for the business peoples
theres quite a few moody cards doing the circuit, will be honoured when presented, but I know couple of customers in my industry that have had claim backs 6 weeks after they had cleared into their account.
One guy spoke to Visa with the cardholder present as they wanted more verification
All approved, got code etc, still had ยฃ3k clawed back 6 weeks after.
Ended up going 50-50 with card issuer when they played back the recording
be careful out there

WARNING - FRAUD, by theartman on Sept 1, 2014 23:51:44 GMT 1, POLICE - you must be kidding me. They are convinced anyone with any art has to much money . It took over 1 hour on the phone to get a cop shop to accept the report of a stolen painting , they arranged to take a statement & 10 days later still not heard from them . Have you ever heard of a bank admitting THEY made a mistake authorising a card ? They even denied "Phantom withdrawals" in the past swearing on a pile of bibles that cards could never & will never be cloned ! In the past the con men used bad English & made silly offers that were too good to be true. NOW the crooks work in Canary Wharf .

WARNING - FRAUD, by Graffiti Prints on Sept 2, 2014 0:22:43 GMT 1, Embarrassingly I got hit bad in July from stolen cards for big price prints like dolk and on the PDF for the NYC show.
Did not send the PDF stuff as things just did not add up and charge backs eventually came through but got spanked
All USA cards that worked on the site but London addresses
Rang me to chase deliveries pretending to be from Norway calling himself ole
Even tried again since it all came to light under another name they don't give a f**k!
I have just put it down to a learning exercise but the fraudsters could have been caught easy as they were waiting for PDF sales
met police did not give a shit spoke with them and the local police gave it to them on a plate
Nothing
Just beware all details must match on cards or your Donald ducked and a fight with USA bank is super hard/impossible or time consuming at least.
Apparently sage pay told me USA cards are rife in the UK online

I have just got a card machine and can take payments over the phone. i will ask my providers Elavon about if i am protected for that, but what should I be looking out for in a face to face transaction? Big beards, sunglasses or shifty eyes?

The people I'm most wary of are ones wearing balaclavas with sunglasses on...never trust someone who can't look you straight in the eye |

WARNING - FRAUD, by rednal55 on Sept 6, 2014 17:43:01 GMT 1, I was hit really hard on August 17th. A guy from London bought 5 Dolk prints and paid over the phone. Yesterday the bank called me and said the guy used stolen cc(s); after his payment cleared and the pieces have been delivered of course. I spoke to my bank, but apparently over the phone payments is not their responsibility. I wished I would have found this threat before all this mess. Anyways, I am going to write down the numbers of these Dolks and hopefully this somehow will help catch these guys.
Dolk - Pope 81/250
Dolk - Pig 106/250
Dolk - Praying Gild 146/250
Dolk - Leap 228/250
