credit card fraud

[adamnichols45]

I have read loads of posts saying that lots of people from africa use fradulant credit cards to purchase goods from websites here in the uk etc. What happens then if you actually ship the goods to them?

do you recieve your money?

or do you lose out?

Can someone explain please?

You get a chargeback from the credit card company and lose all the money, the simple answer is dont do it.

Actually you forgot something there - you lose your goods as well.

1. Lose items sent
2. chargeback fee - depends on provider - US$10++ min.
3. Lose all money paid
