That's right all, they just banned our advertisement account at http://buysellads.com/about/team even though I paid them with my own credit card. Everything transfered fine from my bank but they banned the account and sent this email:

Hello,

I apologize but our system has flagged your account transaction as potentially fraudulent.

We are not always right, so in order to resolve this issue as fast as possible we kindly ask for you to fill out this form: http://blog.buysellads.com/assets/Accou ... nForm1.pdf

Once we have this information we can white-list everything.

Thank you for your time.

Best,
Jared

Of course, it is NOT possible for me to fill out that form. They ask that I place my credit card on the paper, scan/fax it and send it to them. One small problem here: MY CREDIT CARD IS A 100% DIGITAL VIRTUAL CARD WHICH MY BANK OFFERS IN ORDER TO PREVENT FRAUD. I create a NEW virtual card with a limited amount in it, and a short expiration date for EACH purchase to PREVENT fraud.


So I sent them the following email and let's see what they will reply:

Hello Jared,

What? :) The form you ask me to fill out, I cannot do that because my credit card is a virtual "e-card". One unique card is created with a limited date and amount for each transaction. This is something my bank offers to PREVENT fraud.

As I can see from my bank, the money has transferred fine without any issues, so what seems to be the problem here?

Ps. Please always reply to ***@*** , I use white-listing to prevent spam to reach me.

Thank you,

/regards "!"

No reply as of yet. Very interesting, as soon as we start approaching bigger Web sites, they swiftly ban and shut down any account relating to this Web site.

Well, this entire thing is odd :? ...but they have cleared and re-opened the account now so I'll be archiving this thread.
