Hi all,
I'm sad today, thanks to the bunch of killjoys that call themselves the UK government and now that MM is out of the game I have found it really hard to get meph. This is the second time I've been scammed in 2 weeks and now I'm down £50. This may not sound like a lot of money to others but to me its a fortune, one I can't afford to lose anyhow.

My question is this, the first time was bank transfer, F-all I can do about that.
Second was Alertpay using my debit card, so the question is, can I get my money back?

Anyone with any experience in dealing with Alertpay or credit card companies that can advise me what to do?

Please help me, I got no money (now) and no meph to show for being skint. :(

Do a chargeback through your creditcard provider / bank.

Should be no probs getting your $$ back, maybe contact alertpay and let them know you plan to do it first, see what they say.

I'm pretty sure I know of at least one site that has just arrived on the scene that is run by people who shall we say are 'less then reliable'

I won't post it on the forum, but feel free to pm me.

The reason I have my suspicions is because when I went to order I was sent a paypal link for the same guy who ran another site a few months back before they mysteriously dissapeared who was either a scammer or just blatently incompetent. Probably both. Needless to say I didn't make the payment :D

Thanks guys I'm on it, I'll get my damn money back if it kills me.
Shame we can't name these scum on here to stop other innocents making the same mistakes, also a shame we can't list a load of reliable sources, its getting so damn hard to get some meph round here.

right PM's sent finally, thanks again for any help I'll post here with my experience with Alertpay and Visa getting my cash back to help others, what would be even better if I could just post the name of the site so others wouldn't fall into the same trap, but....hay ho.

I say post the name of the site but put (***) these symbols in place of some letters in the name and we'll figure it out.
